#soap # 1 Samuel 14 ## Title: A True Friend ## Scripture: (1 Samuel 14:7) His armor-bearer said to him, “Do everything that is on your mind. Do as you’re inclined. I’m with you all the way!” (NET) ## Observation: A true friend is with you when things are good and when things are bad. Everyone needs a friend like this. If you have one, be sure to tell them how much they mean to you. If you don’t, find one. That sounds easy, but it’s not. These types of friends take time to develop. It likely takes years and many battles. The way to start is not by looking for this type of friend, but being this type of friend to someone else. ## Application: Be the type of friend you want to have. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for being our truest Friend.
