There is a story in the Old
Testament concerning three men who refused to worship a golden image erected by
King Nebuchadnezzar. The king was so incensed by their refusal he sentenced
them to die in a fiery furnace. This furnace was so hot their guards died in
the process of casting them in. As the King watched, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
were joined in the furnace by a Fourth Man. Soon the original three emerged
from the furnace, unharmed, delivered because they had refused to sacrifice
their belief, holding fast to the Miraculous, the fourth presence in the
furnace. The king was so moved he converted on the spot.
We will all face trials and difficulties in our lives, our “fiery furnace.” Having chosen to Live on the Spiritual Basis, by holding fast to a power greater than ourselves as we have come to understand it, the "Fourth Man" stands with us, keeping us unharmed, regardless of how intense the fire appears to be.
