Let us remember what love is like: It is kind (5 mins.): Analysis with the audience. Put the video. Then ask:
How did David show kindness to Mephibosheth?
David did not care about Mephibosheth's condition nor did he feel any revulsion towards him, quite the opposite. With sincere and loyal love, he helped her and went further, he told her to eat from his table every day. David's kindness and love were genuine and not motivated by self-interest.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
He showed him loyal love by giving him back all of Saul's lands and inviting him to always eat at his table.
Although David could be selfish and keep everything that belonged to Saul, he decided to give all the lands to Mephibosheth, he also told him that he would always eat at his table, a privilege that very few people had, so we could say that He treated him like a member of his family.
How can we show kindness and loyal love to others?
We show loyal love to others by imitating David's example and being loving, kind, and humble to everyone, regardless of their social or physical status. This love moves us to do good things for them, without hidden interests.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
We could learn from David's example and follow him, so we will show kindness and loyal love to all our brothers.
We can show kindness and loyal love if we are always willing to help others selflessly, either economically if it is in our possibilities, or with our support in different ways, another way to show loyal love is to fulfill the promises we make, such like David did.
