WOW!!! 1 WEEK ANNIVERSARY OF DAILY DEVOS!
Well today's devotional is based off Genesis 37-50 (Pretty much The Story of Joseph)
Wow... yesterday we saw how bad of a relationship Jacob had with Esau, Jacob eventually had to run away!
But today, it gets worse.
Joseph (from what I interpreted was a bragger, "Hey guys, guess what? When I grow up y'all are going to bow down to me") was a nuisance to his brothers, not only was he a nuisance, he was his father's favorite.
There is nothing wrong with being someone's favorite. It's what you do with that "privilege" that make people dislike you. If you go around with your head held high, that's not good...
Joseph's brothers hated him so much, so they went as far as try to kill him, but they decided to sell him into slavery instead (oh that's so much better)
After that Joseph was a good boy. He served his master so well, he was head of the slaves, and he continued to be good and trusted in God, but then he got into some trouble when the wife lied.
Well then Joseph went to jail, Pharoah promoted him, and he helped save Egypt!
Well the moral and my thoughts?
Trust in God! That's what Joseph did!
