Griffin Pettit, age 11 Pearl of Great Price Tabernacle
When the decree was made saying if you ask any petition of any god or man for thirty days, besides the king, you will go to the den of lions, Daniel still prayed three times a day to the God of Israel. He remained calm and faithful, and it turned out well for him. His friends, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, also had to face the fiery furnace because they would not bow down to Nebuchadnezzar’s statue, and they said, If God doesn’t save us from this furnace, we still won’t bow. And God saved them out of the furnace because they remained calm and faithful. Daniel got rewarded because he interpreted a dream from the king. David had confidence in God, when he faced Goliath, he remained calm because he had already fought with a lion and bear, and had defeated them. They were calm because they had confidence in God. Job also trusted in the Lord. We can remain calm because we know that God is with us, no matter what happens or what you go through, just always remember that God is with you. Every stage of your life, God is there, so remain calm and faithful in him.
