David had a chance to get back at his enemy, but instead he showed mercy to the man who was trying to kill him. God has treated us with mercy that we don’t deserve. The punishment that should have been ours was suffered by Jesus instead. We have been shown incredible forgiveness, and we get to share it with others!

David and Jonathan had a “golden rule” friendship. They treated each other as they would want to be treated. God enables us to grow in our empathy for others as we look to our greatest friend - Jesus. He did more than empathize, he took the punishment we deserved.

Everyone knows the story of the little guy who beat the giant, but there’s more. It wasn’t David’s courage that saved the day. God showed his power and worked through weakness. He will do the same for you!

God puts authority in place to keep order, but worldly leaders don’t save our souls. Saul became the first king of Israel, but he was just a man; sinful like the rest of us. Jesus is the ultimate servant-king whose eternal kingdom is not of this world.
