God is with us no matter what. How have you found this to be happening in your life? He promises to never leave us. We leave the outcomes to Him, just as the three friends did before entering the furnace. The fire tested their faith just like many of our challenges define us.
“To be a Christian is to be loved by God, pursued by God, and found by God. To be a Christian is to realize that in your sin, you were separated from God’s presence, and you deserved nothing but God’s wrath. Yet despite your darkness and in your deadness, his light shone on you and his voice spoke to you, inviting you to follow him. His majesty captivated your soul and his mercy covered your sin, and by his death he brought you life. Do you know for sure that you are his child, not ultimately because of any good you have done—any prayers you have prayed, steps you have taken, or boxes you have checked—but solely because of the grace he has given?” - David Platt, Follow Me: A Call to Die. A Call to Live
