Dream Unfulfilled Fulfilled
David fled for his life. The King wanted him dead. David, the
national hero became a fugitive. His crime: He followed orders.
The King, mentally disturbed, felt his kingdom threatened by
a teenage boy. It was foretold that a new king would take the throne – David.
The King would not allow that to happen. He would fight it as long as he had
breath, so David ran.
“You will be King
over Israel and I’ll be your second in command.” Jonathon, the King’s son, proclaimed. He loved David and vowed his allegiance to the next ruler.
That never happened. Jonathon was killed in battle. David lost
his best friend and dream. But that’s not where the story ends. Mephibosheth,
Johnathon’s son, became a person that David showed kindness to. He welcomed the young man into his kingdom. The dream came
back to life in a crippled boy. (Mephibosheth was five years old when a nurse
dropped the boy.)
