Tuesday: Forgiveness and Consequences: Navigating Sin's Aftermath

Week 6: True Friendship in Times of Trouble  

Remember the BIG IDEA: Walking with God through life’s battles will weed out fake friends, reveal true friends, and prove that God is our greatest friend. 

Reading Proverbs 17:17 and 1 Samuel 18:1-4 

Devotional: In David's darkest hour, true friends stood by him while others betrayed him. Today's readings highlight the value of genuine friendship. Like Jonathan to David, a true friend loves at all times and sticks closer than a brother. 

Action:  Reflect on the friendships in your life. Are you surrounded by those who stand with you through trials, or those who may abandon you when times get tough? 

Action:  Reflect on what kind of friend you are to others. Are you loyal and supportive, even when it's difficult? 

Prayer:  Ask God to help you cultivate and be the kind of friend that reflects His steadfast love.
