Pastor Jonathan Laurie shares what a true friendship looks like to the godly person.

Notes:

“David did not know the rest of his story, he just knew that God was writing it, and it would ultimately be good. God has a future for you, too. Until that day, remember, ‘Our times are in His hands.’” —Pastor Greg

Remember that we can always trust an unknown future to a known God.

“True Friendship”

1 Samuel / Psalms

1 Samuel 18:1–4

1. A good friend is one who recognizes God’s Will.

1 Samuel 18:1–4 / Psalm 37:4–7

1 Samuel 20:30–33

“A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it.” —G.K. Chesterton

Psalm 37:4–7

Matthew 6:33

If something makes you forget about God or not want to spend time with Him, you need to deny yourself of it … no matter how good you may think it is.

Mark 8:36

2. A good friend is one who builds each other up.

1 Samuel 23:15–18 / Psalm 27:1–3, 14

Psalm 27:1–3

3. A good friend is one who is sacrificial.

1 Samuel 18:1–4 / Psalm 22

Sacrificial love is a type of love that is willing to deny itself, to put itself in harm’s way to get you to safety.

John 15:13

Philippians 2:7

John 10:11

Psalm 22:1
