Genesis 36-40

Today I learned that even when people trick us and lie to hurt us that we should always think of Joseph. He was betrayed by his own brothers and sold as a slave, but he stayed faithful to God and God blessed him. And most days won't go as we want them to so we need to get used to picking ourselves up after we've been knocked down.

"The world is not all sunshine and rainbows, is a very mean, nasty place. And I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. Me, you or nobody is going to hit as hard as life, but it ain't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. About how much you can take and keep moving forward."

  1. I was thinking the other day "Why is life painful why can't I just be happy" But it's not about being happy or living a good and pain free life...And I read this verse and the verse was basically saying Life isn't about you it's about doing what Jesus has command to sharing the gospel to the lost....

    Anyways just thought I would share that :)
