“Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished and rose up in haste. He said to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the fire?” They answered the king, “True, O king.” He answered, “But I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.” Nebuchadnezzar said, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his angel and delivered his servants, who trusted in him, And set at naught the king’s command, and yielded up their bodies rather than serve and worship any god except their own God.” Daniel 3:91-92, 95. St. JoseMaria Escriva said, “When you see the storm coming, if you seek safety in that firm refuge which is Mary, there will be no danger of your wavering or going down.”

Let us pray, Loving Father, those who place their trust in You shall never be disappointed; it You Yourself who is their protector as You protected Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego from the fire. We come to You today for protection from all who attack us and mean to destroy us and our futures. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
