Family Life

Today at church the speaker reminded me of an excellent example of what I posted yesterday. He spoke about Joseph, and how he endured hatred, injustice and suffering, and yet through it all maintained his integrity and faith. I remembered a Bible study series from many years ago that presented Joseph as a type of Christ. Both were:

• Loved by his father
• Hated by his brothers
• Sold for silver
• Unjustly accused
• Suffered
• Raised to the highest position

Joseph is a role model for never losing heart in the midst of utter calamity.
