Out of the Frying Pan, into the fire: 11-26-12

Hi friends of Thrive (www.ThrivePortOrange.com)! In today's One Year Bible reading, I came across one of my favorite verses. It's Daniel 3:25

 25 "Look!" Nebuchadnezzar shouted. "I see four men, unbound, walking around in the fire unharmed! And the fourth looks like a god!"

In the story in Daniel, three men would not back down from their faith, even though it meant they would be burned alive.  That type of determination always gets me.  May I be that strong!  But the part I really like is how God himself is willing to go into the fire with them.  It gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, out of the frying pan & into the fire!  So, no matter where I am, whatever mess I find myself in, God is more than wiling to jump into it with me. It's great to know I don't ever have to be alone again!

My Prayer for today: Lord, may I be as bold as the 3 men I read about in Daniel's account.  I invite you into my situations today.  May I stand strong knowing you are by my side today.

Amen
