About Daniel in the Lions' Den
In the court of King Darius, Daniel was a man of deep integrity, so faithful in his duties that rivals could find no fault in him except his unshakeable devotion to God. When a royal decree made his daily prayers a crime, Daniel opened his window toward Jerusalem and prayed just the same. That night in the den, no lion stirred; at sunrise the king ran to the stone and called into the darkness, his voice raw with hope, and Daniel answered.
