Genesis 39

Reading about Joseph. Coat of many colors Joseph. A man who is always thrown into circumstances and yet never seems to stop believing in God. Circumstances where people betray him and God always is with him and turns those circumstances around. You never read him complaining about the circumstances......

Well... he's got me beat there. I do complain. Though, I do rejoice as well.

My rough edges could still use a little smoothing.

the hope we have to hang on to is that God is doing more behind our back than in front of our face...

He can bring good out of situations... just like he did for Joseph. (been living this one.)
