July 13, 2020 - TRUE FRIENDSHIP


Day 195 - (Today’s Bible readings: Jeremiah 33:14-26; Psalm 13; Acts 21:1-16)

TRUE FRIENDSHIP

Then Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, because we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘The Lord shall be between me and you , and between my offspring and your offspring, forever.’”  (1 Samuel 20:42 ESV)

“David and Jonathan’s friendship displays lasting loyalty and personal self-sacrifice.  Give thanks for the friends God has blessed you with and the wonderful way He has protected you.”  (The Lutheran Study Bible, Concordia Publishing House, 2009, page 470)

What a friend we have in Jesus. 
All our sins and griefs to bear! 
What a privilege to carry 
Ev’rything to God in prayer! 
Oh, what peace we often forfeit, 
Oh, what needless pain we bear, 
All because we do not carry 
Everything to God in prayer. Amen. 

Thank your friends today for being there for you.  And walk with Jesus, your best Friend, today!

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:105 ), is the theme for this three-year journey through the entire Old Testament once (the Psalms - twice yearly), and the New Testament twice. There will be daily readings from the O.T., Psalms and the N.T. Special days on the church calendar will be highlighted with appropriate readings. This calendar has been compiled by representatives of the Lutheran Church of Canada, the North American Lutheran Church and the Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod. Please click this link for the daily reading calendar:

Then scroll down to 2020 Bible Reading Calendar and download it if you so wish. The “assigned” daily readings will appear on a daily basis in this blog. May the Lord bless your meditation upon His precious life-giving Word!
