A man who has friends must himself be friendly, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. – Proverbs 18:24
RECOMMENDED READING
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
King Solomon wrote insightful words about the power and value of friendship (Proverbs 18:24; 27:10; Ecclesiastes 4:9-12). We have to wonder if his words were inspired by the youthful experiences of his father, David-especially the idea that “there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.”
Apparently, David was not particularly close to his older brothers (1 Samuel 17:28-29). He was, however, very close to King Saul’s son, Jonathan, with whom he seemed to have formed a covenant (protective) bond (1 Samuel 20). Their relationship is reflected by Jonathan’s words to David: “Whatever you yourself desire, I will do it for you” (1 Samuel 20:4).
In Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, Solomon describes the ways that “two are better than one”: teamwork (verse 9), help (verse 10), provision (verse 11), and strength (verse 12). But Solomon also notes the prerequisite for having such a close friend: “A man who has friends must himself be friendly.” That is, it takes one to know one.
Close friendships develop over time. Begin today by being the kind of friend you would like to have in your life.
