Mark - Daniel 6

...and then there was Darius. These rulers all have one thing in common. Their drunk with their station in life. This is the third one and still there has been no marked conversion on who is calling the shots. God through the Holy Spirit gives Daniel insights and blessings abound, Daniel inturn gives thanks to his King daily through pray. King Darius like the others before is driven by his ego and pride and believes his own press. I find myself at times in this same boat. It's good to be confident in what you do and how you carry yourself but not at the detrement of others. I was
once told by an aquaintance, "you don't suffer fools well Mark." This statement struck me as being right on. In hindsight though this phrase just points out I have alot of learning yet to do.
The key for me is to always remain teachable.
