While the Old Testament book of Daniel contains numerous fascinating stories which are not just stories, but accounts of actual events, there is an overarching theme of the book of which these various accounts are a demonstration.  That theme is summarized in verse twenty-one of chapter two:  And he [God] changeth the times and the seasons; he removeth kings, and setteth up kings; he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to those who know understanding.
“The wise” are those who look around them at current events in the world and ask the question, “Who’s in charge here?”  And “the wise” are those who realize the correct answer to that question:  “GOD is in charge here!”
Especially in this present time the words of the hymn, “This Is My Father’s World,” are particularly relevant, comforting, and encouraging:  “This is my Father’s world, O let me ne’er forget that though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the Ruler yet.”
