"Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words."
Daniel 10:12
I like this detail in Daniel's vision. It is basically a reassurance to Daniel, who feels like nothing before the Lord, and unworthy of what is happening to him, that God cares, and that Daniel has value in God's eyes.
The same is true for each of us. Our words are heard, and what we say and do matters to God. I mean, of course that doesn't mean that we can make demands or that we are always going to get what we want, but it does mean that God is always listening, and if we do the things that Daniel did we will also be able to connect with him.
Today, let's set our hearts to understand, and invest ourselves in some self-improvement, correcting ourselves as needed to stay in tune with God. And then let's pour out our hearts to God, knowing that he hears us, and that he will help.
