Trust in God is not a bargain we offer in exchange for freedom from pain, persecution, or threat of natural disaster. Trusting God means we don’t waver when things are not turning out the way we planned. Daniel’s friends told the king they expected to believed God was able to do it (Daniel 3:17). But they also told king that even death, If God chose, would still accomplish their rescue (verse 18). Trusting God means we have a reason to hope even when it seems like everything bad may happen to us.

DANIEL 3:19- Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was change against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abdnego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
