Daniel

Today I am struck by Daniel's words before he is thrown into the blazing furnace

Daniel 3:17+18
"If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and he will rescue us from your hand, O king. But even if he does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up."

Daniel a Faith that was tried and tried but never failed.

Working on Progress

The plan for this blog is to put down thoughts and maybe help clarify them, work them out. Any feedback is appreciated (with moderation).

Sometimes I need to write stuff down and it comes out like this.I'm not an authority on anything, and I will change some of my ideas, so think for yourself, otherwise I will mislead you. I will fail, because I am human.

God Bless

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” Marianne Williamson
