From the Pit to the Palace

In this message, we celebrate graduates for enduring taking on new challenges to make it to graduation. We look at the life of Joseph to see how to acknowledge God through all transitions, joyous to difficult. Irrespective of the situation, God’s presence goes with us through the difficult times (the pit) and the good times (the palace). 

We go through ups and downs in life, often unable to see the bigger pictures. Remember that God’s plan is bigger than you. Hardship that Joseph experienced early in life led him on a path enabling him to provide for his family later in life. God is with us in the pit, the prison and the palace, even when we don’t know why we are going through things and what will come out of it.

Joseph had a strong foundation of faith and that faith allowed him to acknowledge God in all circumstances. When things are hard, it changes our attitude towards life and people. Acknowledging God helps us to live out The Jesus Way. What are we experiencing that we can say “But God!” about today?
