"Three times a day he got down on his knees and prayed, giving thanks to God, just as he had done before." Daniel 6:10b When I was younger I used to come home from school and eat almost an entire meal before dinner. I would then also eat dinner, and often have a sizeable after dinner meal. It became a habit, but it was one that needed to change. And so eventually I made a change. But there are other habits that shouldn't change. Even in the face of significant odds, these habits need to remain. Daniel shows us this when he is faced with a law that says if he prays to anyone other than the emperor then he will be put to death in the lion's den. The first thing he does is go to God. He knows where his human limits are and where to get God's help. He holds to his habit and we know how that story ends. Some things should change, and some things should remain. A humble leader knows which are which.
