Daniel 6:10

Turkish (Yaşam Yayınları)

Daniel yasanın imzalandığını öğrenince evine gitti. Yukarı odasının Yeruşalim yönüne bakan pencereleri açıktı. Daha önce yaptığı gibi her gün üç kez diz çöküp dua etti, Tanrısına övgüler sundu.

Bu ne anlama geliyor?

Daniel 6:10 tells us that Daniel continued to pray three times a day, even after he learned about the new law against praying to anyone but the king. He opened his windows towards Jerusalem and prayed as he had always done.

Imagine you have a favorite toy that makes you really happy, and one day someone tells you it's not okay to play with your toy anymore. But you still want to be happy, so you keep playing with it because it means so much to you. That’s like Daniel praying even when he was told not to.

In a modern scenario, imagine you are at work where there’s a new policy against taking breaks to pray or meditate. Despite the risks, if prayer is important to you, Daniel's example shows it can be done privately while remaining true to your beliefs.
