yesterday had bible study on Daniel chapter 3.

"Trust God."
"Have faith in God."

common phrases, popular phrases, how do you qualify it?
this phrase is so commonly used among the christian community that if we do not attempt to qualify it, we might just miss the essence of it. I mean we may not turly understand what we are saying.

I guess many of us are familiar about the event of Daniel's 3 friends were thrown into the fire furnace? do you know what did the friends say when the king commanded them to be thrown into the fire?

"If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and he will rescue us from your hand, O king. But even if he does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up."

will you say that they are of little faith, because they replied to the king with the "if"? If God didn't...

No. I think they are truly of great faith. They truly understands that no matter what's the outcome, God is still soverign. So even if they are really thrown into the first and burn to death, they know that if God has allowed that to happen, that's the best for them.

will we find that God is wrong or saying that that decision is not wise enough if they are burnt to death?

what i have learnt that having faith is not only in trusting that somethng will turn out better. but is also trusting that even if something worse happened, it is still within God's soverignty, within His wisdom and best plans.

may i continue to love listening to God's Voice through studying of His word. =D
