Daniel 3:16 Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter.
Oh the faith of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. God CAN. He WILL. But EVEN IF He does not, we will praise Him.
Daniel 3:17 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand.
I know that God CAN do all things. I know that He WILL use all things for my good and His glory. I try to praise Him always. But there is a time in there where I question and doubt: Why God? Why me? Why this? Why now?
Daniel 3:18a But even if he does not,
Precious Savior, Thank You for Your sovereign, compassionate, fierce love. Thank You for being big enough to handle my feelings of fear, doubt, anger, and bitterness. Thank You for Your strength and love, even if, even when. Help me to praise You always. Amen.
Daniel 3:18b …we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up.”
Have a blessed day.
