“Daniel drew closer. "God wants your hearts to learn to endure, too. Endure in love. Love him even when he seems absent. Love him when he has offended or disappointed you. Love him when you feel he has not protected you... If. you do not learn to lean into God's enduring love, in time, you might become slaves to bitterness. And that's a far worse slavery than merely b king captives in Babylon.”
