He Is The Key
King David, before he was king, became best friends with Saul's son, Jonathan. In fact, they were much closer than friends. In today's terms we might call them 'blood brothers'- men who shared the same heart and who would willingly die for each other. What knit them together? As we read the account of Jonathan and his armor-bearer scaling a tower to attack the enemy on top, we see that Jonathan had complete faith in God- active and living "I trust God with my life" kind of faith. David shared that same faith.
They were also both skilled and competent outdoorsmen. They knew how to live off the land, they were leaders of men, and each had the heart of a warrior. In many respects they were very much alike, and yet I believe it was their passionate faith that knit them together.
When you are 'sold out' for Jesus and you meet a person who shares that heart, you have an instant, deep connection... and both of you recognize it. That is the kind of relationship the you and I were created for. That is what we hunger for. When you go 'all in' for Jesus with every fiber of your being, you will meet like-minded people who want to do life together. HE is the KEY. Be blessed! -Pastor Brad
