AMAZEMENT

AMAZEMENT
Anita May
Daniel 3:24
 
S. 
Then King Nebuchadnezzar leaped to his feet in amazement and asked his advisers, "weren't there three men that we tied up and threw into the fire?"  They replied "certainly, O'King."
 
O.
Do I have the trust and faith of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.  Would I back down and worship a foreign god rather than face a furnace of fire seven times hotter than normal.  If I am to be what God is calling me to be I must trust in Him with all my heart, and soul.  I must believe that God can get me through any battle. 
 
A.
Since surrendering my life to God, I have faced many a time when the heat has been turned up to boiling.  With the amazing grace of God I have been able to keep smiling and walk through the heat.  The greatest thing is seeing the reaction of my friends and family who do not have a relationship with Jesus, they look at me and say "how much more can you handle",  I smile and say "with God, nothing is impossible". 
 
Isn't God AMAZING how He will carry my burdens, take away my pain, whisper in my ear and watch over me day and night.  How blessed am I that I have an awesome amazing living God that loves me so much.  No other god or idol can save me.  My Jesus is a mighty, mighty God.  He truly is AMAZING. 
 
P.
Father God,  you have walked with me and carried me through many really hot times.  It is so true that your love endures forever.  No one could love me like you.  I pray Lord that I have the trust and faith of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, that no matter where you send me I will be obedient and go.  I thank you Lord Jesus that you live in me, that you have placed me in a home of unity, trust and respect and that I am encouraged to be all that you have called me to be.  You God are the only Lord for me.     Amen
