Genesis 39 & 40
Inspired thots
Joseph must have gone through a lot of hardships in a foreign land; though he did nothing deserving them. Yet, it was God's will to have him undergo the sufferings to mature him and hone his patience for greater things in the future.
He maintained his righteousness before God and walked rightly no matter what the circumstances were.
His success may not be as what I would have wanted but having favor with God to enjoy His protection over his life is better than the material riches and honor.... I see that now from Joseph's life.
Hence, yes Lord; I shall not ask for material wealth or fame BUT favor with YOU alone as I rest under Your wings of protection; for then, I have it all!
Though I may not see the bigger picture, God is in control.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
