As David shows kindness to Mephibosheth a few things stick out:
1) Honoring your word when it would be easier to ignore your obligation is a measurement of character.
2) Showing kindness when the other person would expect punishment is like a cool breeze in the desert.
3) Helping a less fortunate person is a great way to show the love of the Creator. And most of the time, is a greater way to find fulfillment.
"Father, help me love those You are sending me to."
Heart and Soul,
