Covenantal Friendship
Ruth 1:1–5, 1:15–16
Covenantal Friendship – is an intimate relationship with someone, not based on sex or mutual advantage, but upon our mutual relationship with Christ, His people, and the shared similarities of our souls.
My spouse, by definition, is my best friend to the exclusion of all others except Jesus.
Friendship arises and is displayed when we “lean into” heroic relationships.
Whereas wounded people are tempted to isolate, people seeking friendship press through into fellowship.
Fierce loyalty inflames fierce friendships.

"Checkmate" by Friedrich Moritz August Retzsch

People who know the faithfulness of God know that the King always has another move!
God’s faithfulness to His body isn’t so much theological as it is romantic.

Salvation Prayer
Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for drawing me to Yourself from my darkness, my sin, and my shame. I repent of my sins, and I ask You to forgive me. I welcome You into my heart, and I surrender my future into Your hands. Guide me by Your Holy Spirit, and help me to be a reflector of Your light to those around me. Thank You for including me in Your family. Amen
