✨ PERSONAL LESSON
Friendship That Celebrates Rather Than Competes
“And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword.”
Insecure rivalry poisons relationships, but covenant 'Phileo' rejoices when a brother or sister rises. Be the friend today who puts a royal robe of encouragement on someone else's shoulders.
SAY THIS ALOUD
“I lay aside comparison and joyfully celebrate God's anointing on the people around me.”
