"But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods." - Daniel 3:18
Napakadaling maging faithful kapag everything is going according to our prayers, pero paano kung hindi?
What if God doesn't answer the way we expected?
What if the door stays closed?
What if the situation doesn't change?
What if the prayer takes longer than we thought?
Can we still say, "Lord, I will obey You?"
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego didn't know what would happen inside the furnace, but they knew who their God was. At iyon ang faith na kailangan natin. Hindi natin kailangang malaman kung paano tayo ililigtas ng Diyos bago tayo sumunod sa Kanya. We simply need to know that He is worthy of our obedience, even if He does not answer the way we want.
Sometimes following God will cost us something.
It may cost us comfort.
It may cost us approval.
It may cost us opportunities.
It may even mean standing alone.
But obedience is still obedience even when it costs us.
