Daniel

Ok, another long time, no post.

This is more of a prayer request than a post. It's about one of the guys involved in youth church. He's made a commitment to follow Christ but comes from a family who have no involvement in church. He has no real Christian friends. He's in a hard place. All of his mates have no interest really in knowing God, and he's under pressure to conform to their patterns of behaviour. We see the battle in his life, and we know there's little more we can do than pray.

Apart from Sunday morning and Kids Club on a Wednesday night he's getting no input. It's in no way a perfect analogy but he makes me think of Daniel, living in a foreign land with those who worship foreign Gods. My prayer is that he will be like Daniel, that he will make a stand for the one true God, and that he will find some Christian friends, a Shadrach, a Meshach, an Abednego who will stand with him. If you have time please remember him in your prayers.
