Maybe one of the greatest statements in all of scripture is Daniel 3:18 -
"...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."
How BIG is your God? Is He that big to you? That even if your expectations are not met or if God chooses to meet them in a different way or if He decides not to meet what you think you need at all, that God is still God and you're not. I don't know about for you, but for me, that takes a lot of faith - a "but even if He does not" kind of faith.
God, give me more of that kind of faith. That's a dangerous prayer because typically what happens is that God will provide opportunities for our faith to be built in just that way. But the awesome thing is that God will show up and He will meet us in our own "furnaces" and through that our faith will be built and God will be glorified. Very cool.
