Jonathan, Loyal Friend
Lesson for July 25, 1948
\\TELL might we term this a les-
W son on the facets of friendship.
Rarely will one come upon such a
splendid example of friendship In
all literature. Cole-
ridge put it well
when he wrote,
“Friendship Is a
sheltering tree.” Di-
ogenes Laertius,
writing on Aristotle,
says. “He was once
asked what a friend
is, and his answer
was, ‘One soul abid-
ing in two bodies’.”
Such was the
Dr. Newton friendship of Jona-
than and David — a
sheltering tree—one soul abiding in
two bodies. Although Jonathan’s
father attempted at least ten times
to kill David, Jonathan was drawn
the closer to David, with whose
soul his was knit.
The record of this friendship Is
found in our scripture and devo-
tional readings for the lesson, with
the golden text from Proverbs 17:17,
“A friend loveth at all times.”
v<
A PRINCE SHARES WITH A
SHEPHERD
JONATHAN was the crown prince
•I apparent. David was a shepherd
boy. Saul expected to place Jona-
than on the throne. God had se-
lected David.
Jonathan would, no doubt, have
made a better king than Saul, his
father but he had no desire to be
king when he discovered the kingly
qualities in his friend, David. Not
once did Jonathan ever indicate any
disappointment in not becoming
king.
JONATHAN STANDS UP FOR HIS
FRIEND
11 r HEN Saul openly plotted the
W death of David, Jonathan
begged his father to reconsider his
course and spare the life of the man
who had killed Goliath and had
proved himself the valiant friend of
Saul. This was the final test of Jon-
athan’s sacrificial love for David.
He might have remained silent, thus
aiding in the death of the one man
who stood between him and the
throne. But Jonathan was made of
the stout texture which counts no
sacrifice too dear for a friend. He
was willing to stand up and be
counted when it meant that he
would not become king. Thus we
see that true friendship is not al-
ways easy. It usually is very costly,
but it pays big dividends in the coin
of eternal wealth.
FRIENDSHIP THAT COSTS
\ ND like as Jonathan stood up
l\ and witnessed his lasting
friendship for David, at a very-
great cost, so are we today sum-
moned to this ennobling type of
friendship for Christ. “Ye are my
friends if ye do whatsoever I com-
mand you,” he once said.
Young, people find it rather costly
to be loyal friends of Christ today.
There are many siren voices that
invite young people to take the low
road—social drinking, gambling de-
vices of one sort and another, satis-
faction of sensual desires. But the
true friend of Christ will withstand
these voices, choosing rather the
high road of Christian gentlemen. *
SACRIFICIAL FRIENDSHIP
U|->RIENDSHIP is the loveliest
i’ flower In the garden of hu-
manity," according to my cherished
friend, Dr. Hlght C. Moore. I
would add this thought—true friend-
ship flowers in the garden of hu-
manity, but it finds its life in the
Garden of God’s Perfect Eden.
I have not known one single
friendship that has impressed me
that did not stem from above.
“How can two walk together except
they be agreed?” And the only ce-
ment that will hold human hearts
together—one soul in two bodies—
is the grace of God.
“Friendship is as God, who gives
and asks no payment,” said Richard
Hovey, and not until the human will
Is yielded to the will of God, even
as was the will of Jonathan, can
sacrificial friendship come to
flower and to harvest

It won’t work.../rj/ itself
It takes a lot more than a tele-
phone instrument to give you
telephone service.
Before a telephone will work
i it must be connected by a pair
of wires from your home all the
way to the switching equipment
in the centra’ office.
Telephone wire and cable are
still scarce compared with the
large amounts we need. But we
are placing and splicing new cable
as fast as we can get it.
In some places, there isn’t room
for more telephone connections
on the switchboards. To get more
room, we are adding new equip-
ment— faster than ever before.
Despite shortages, we would be
caught up by now if it was not
for the extremely large number
of new applications for service.
They pour in at a rate of 50,000
a month in the Southwest, and
that tremendous demand has kept
us from eliminating the wait for
telephone service in most places.
It is still an uphill pull, but we
are gaining on it, and we are
grateful for your patience and
understanding.
