The Providence of God
Genesis 41:1–50:26 | As Jacob comes face-to-face with his brothers, what will his reaction be? I mean these are the guys who sold him and sent him on a 13-year journey as a household servant and prison sufferer. If you were coming face-to-face with people who led you into over a decade worth of pain and heartache, what would you say? What would you do?
Joseph's response is shocking. Really shocking. What we see from him is the response of someone who was able to maintain a soft heart through many decades of pain. How did he do that?
It has to do with his understanding of the providence of God. What did he understand? What do we need to understand so we too can preserve soft hearts through life's pain?

God With Us
Genesis 37:1-39:23 | Question: Where is God when life is at its worst?
Answer: Right. With. Us.
I know that is easier to know in our head than it is to know in our heart when life is at its absolute worst. When the deep valleys come it's easy to ask: God where are you? Why so silent? Why aren't you moving in this?
This week we watch as Joseph goes from the position of a prized son to a prison sufferer. In this decline, where is the Lord? Well, there are a few reassuring statements that tell us where God is in the valleys and that God is at work through the valleys.
