Preview of Stained Glass Hearts

We can see in Daniel’s story (Old Testament Daniel) that although he survived his enemies, he still was criticized, plotted against, and lied about. Prayer doesn’t necessarily rescue us from all evil intentions or diabolical schemes, but instead it gives us a resource for comfort, wisdom, strength and unexplainable joy in the midst of the ravenous lions of life. And when we lose our joy, the Spirit replaces it with endurance, that indestructible, internal insistence to keep on keeping on.

    Oh how often we pray thinking will “rescue us from all evil intentions” but as you point out “instead it gives us a resource for comfort, wisdom, strength and unexplainable joy in the midst of the ravenous lions of life.” I’m looking forward to Women of Faith 2011 at Honda Center. Hope you’re there Patsy! Missed you last year. BTW – I’m giving away 2 pair of suite tickets, enter at http://thinkonitbibledevotions.com/womenoffaith2011giveaway.aspx
