OK, so a friend of mine, Dave Jewitt, in his daily devotional used the scripture Psalm 75:6-7. The scripture says "No one from the east or the west or from the desert can exalt a man. But it is God who judges: He brings one down, he exalts another."

I take great comfort knowing that my life is in God's hands. He can and will do with me whatever he chooses. I may have many plans, but the outcome is God's. (See Proverbs 19:21)

God is Judge. That is the meaning of the name Daniel which by the way just happens to be my name.
