FOR CHILDREN
Out of the lions' den
Karua Saft
Some of the great heroes and heroines in the Bible proved in their lives a lesson that Christ Jesus taught: "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." Matt. 5:6. They came victoriously through hard trials because more than anything else they wanted to have a better understanding of God and His laws, to feel near to Him, and to serve Him.
The story of Daniel tells about one of these people. When his life was going well, and he was one of the people in charge in the kingdom of Darius, Daniel's success didn't make him forget about loving and serving God. Every day he drew near to God in his prayers and gave thanks to Him. Dan. 6: 10 . When envious men hatched a plot against him so that he was thrown into the lions' den, Daniel stayed faithful to God. He knew he had done no wrong.
