Today’s Reading:
Daniel 1:1–21 (EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)

“But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine.”
(Daniel 1:8)

This week’s EFKS theme:
Seasons of Life — Nurture

A Thought for Today

You can live in a changing world without losing who you are in God.

What This Means for Us Today

Daniel entered a new culture where his name, surroundings, and expectations were changed.

Yet quietly, he held onto his convictions.

Faithfulness does not always need to be loud. Sometimes it simply means knowing where you stand and remaining grounded when everything around you changes.

Carry This With You

Stay grounded in who you are before God.

A Simple Prayer

Lord, keep me grounded when pressures surround me.
Give me courage to remain faithful to You.

Today’s Invitation

Think about one value your faith has taught you.
Choose to live it quietly and confidently today.
