This love letter from John the Apostle to the children of God seems so simple at first read, "Little children, love one another." The letter doesn't follow the logical flow of some other letters in the Bible. But a closer look reveals a complex tapestry that is as beautiful from a distance, in its simplicity, as it is marvelous in its detail. Imagine that we should be called "Children of God". And that is what we are.

Daniel is typically viewed as an exemplar of endurance through a tough time, faithful through fierce trials and a true man of faith.

The message of Daniel isn't, "Dare to be Daniel", it is "Dare to believe that Jesus is the king for which everyone has hoped."
