Everyone faces their own kind of “lion” — a first day of school, a hard choice, or standing alone. Daniel shows us what it looks like to trust God when things are scary.
Faithful in Prayer
Daniel kept praying even when it was dangerous to do so:
“He kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did before.” (Daniel 6:10, WEB)
Protected by God
When he was thrown to the lions for his faith, God protected him:
“My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me.” (Daniel 6:22, WEB)
Pair this with Daniel's own quiet courage:
“When I am afraid, I will put my trust in you.” (Psalm 56:3, WEB)
Talk About It Together
Talk about it: What does your own “window” look like — a quiet place you can talk to God when you're scared?
