Tragedy to triumph

Everybody knows about King David of Israel.  He is a part of this story, but he's not the point. His best friend,  Jonathan, was the son of King Saul, the first king of Israel chosen by God. King Saul and all his family got into a war with David because God had punished Saul and replaced him with David to be king.  The only person left in the family of Saul was a son of Jonathan's.  When David became king he asked if anyone in Jonathan's family was left alive and he was told about Jonathan's youngest son. Now this son had been dropped by a nurse when he was less than a year old and both his ankles and feet were damaged causing him to be crippled.  This sounds tragic, but this meant he wasn't able to fight in the war that wiped out his family so he was still alive.  King David found him, blessed him, restored his house returned his wealth and took care of him. Maybe you think your situation is a curse, a pain,  a sign of punishment or abandonment by God, but consider this...it could be placing you in the right place for just the right time.  Rejoice in the Lord always and live with joyful expectations. 😘☝🙌
