Soul mates, Jonathan and David. Many people have a difficult time understanding the feelings between these two men. Is it because we are so busy with our lives that we don’t develop those kinds of friendships? Is it because we are connected by trivial pursuits only? Is it because we are so self-centered? Just what is it about the friendship between Jonathan and David that we don’t get?

“Saul was very angry…” He let pride creep in. What a contrast with Saul's feelings toward David and Jonathan’s feelings toward David.

Interesting that David was asked to bring Saul a gift of 100 and David brought 200. Sounds like David really wanted Michal in marriage.

Could it be that the evil spirit from the Lord that came upon Saul was so that David would be favored by the people? By the time David became king most of the people were already in David’s “camp”.

Even Saul began prophesying when he went to Ramah for David. He was speaking God’s words. Too bad he wasn’t thinking God’s thoughts.

How goes it with us as Christians? Do we think God's thoughts or are we giving "lip service"?
