All of us know what it is like to trust God for things such as needs and wants being met. However, true character is developed when one knows how to trust God regardless of the situation and regardless of the outcome. Our trust in God should not be a means to an end. We should just trust Him because He is trustworthy. He is God. He is our Father.
Daniel 3:16-18 Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego replied to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to give you an answer concerning this matter.If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire; and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But even if He does not, let it be known to you, O king, that we are not going to serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”
