SHOW NOTES:


 


In Podcast Episode 178, “I Want to Show God’s Kindness to Someone,” Kim discusses the importance of looking for opportunities to invade someone’s life with an unexpected act of kindness. King David looked for an opportunity to honor his loyalty to King Saul’s descendants, and he invaded the son of his friend Jonathan’s life with unexpected kindness.


 


The primary scripture text for this episode is 2 Samuel 9:1-13 with as the focal verses.


 


1 One day David asked, “Is anyone in Saul’s family still alive—anyone to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?” 2 He summoned a man named Ziba, who had been one of Saul’s servants. “Are you Ziba?” the king asked.


“Yes sir, I am,” Ziba replied.


3 The king then asked him, “Is anyone still alive from Saul’s family? If so, I want to show God’s kindness to them.”


Ziba replied, “Yes, one of Jonathan’s sons is still alive. He is crippled in both feet.”

42 At last Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for we have sworn loyalty to each other in the Lord’s name. The Lord is the witness of a bond between us and our children forever.” Then David left, and Jonathan returned to the town. (1 Samuel 20:42)


 


10 Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone—especially to those in the family of faith.


 (Galatians 6:10)
