"In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia a message was revealed to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar. The message was true, but the appointed time was long, and he understood the message, and had understanding of the vision" ~Dan 10:1~

When God sends you a message, either through another person, a verse, a dream, or a vision, it is very personal. We find later in verse 7 that "I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision...". No one else saw it. No one else could verify it, or validate that it ever happened. But Daniel knew. He knew God, knew His voice, recognized His hand. What courage and faith it takes to stand on a vision God gave you, and nobody else saw it...especially when the appointed time for this to come true is long. I pray my faith would be as strong as Daniel's, to trust in the God I know who sends the promise, the dream, and continue hope in that until the appointed time.
