In Genesis 39:1-23, Joseph is lead by God into circumstances that don’t seem to make sense. As as a youth, he is sold into slavery by his brothers, and then taken to Egypt and sold to the captain of the guard, a man named Potiphar. At first, things seem to go well for Joseph, but Potiphar’s wife tries to tempt and trap him. Life get’s worse for Joseph before it get’s better. He does the right thing but is condemned and thrown in prison. Through it all, he trusts God and God remains faithful. God was with Joseph, loving him, and blessing him in the midst of trial. We too can be encouraged by this. No matter your circumstances, God is still with you and loves you.
