Today's Scripture *January 27, 2009*
2 Samuel 1: 22-25
The bow of Jonathan was powerful,
And the sword of Saul did its mighty work.
They shed the blood of their enemies
And pierced the bodies of mighty heroes.
And the sword of Saul did its mighty work.
They shed the blood of their enemies
And pierced the bodies of mighty heroes.
How beloved and gracious were Saul and Jonathan!
They were together in life and in death.
They were swifter than eagles,
Stronger than lions.
They were together in life and in death.
They were swifter than eagles,
Stronger than lions.
O women of Israel, weep for Saul,
For he dressed you in luxurious scarlet clothing,
In garments decorated with gold.
For he dressed you in luxurious scarlet clothing,
In garments decorated with gold.
Oh, how the mighty heroes have fallen in battle!
Jonathan lies dead on the hills.
Jonathan lies dead on the hills.
Saul had caused much trouble for David, but when he died, David composed a song in memory of the king and his son.
David had every reason to hate Saul, but he chose not to. Instead, he chose to look at the good Saul had done and to ignore the times when Saul attacked him.
It takes courage to lay aside hatred and hurt and to respect the positive side of another person, especially if they are an enemy.
God, help us to see the good in people.
Help us to be forgiving of wrong doings and not to hold on to grudges.
We want to be like David, and see the best in even our enemy's.
In Jesus' Name, Amen..
Bless you!
