DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 24:1-23; Psalms 137:1-138:8; Mark 9:33-50

As for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good. Genesis 50:20

We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28

Joseph faced calamity, rejection, suffering, loneliness, and imprisonment. He was forgotten by the world and even by his own family, yet he was still able to say, “God meant it unto good.” When we meet opposition as every God-honouring Christian will do, we must lay hold of promises such as Romans 8:28 and remember that God will indeed bring good out of it. In faith we leave the timing with Him. —David Croudace

Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain.
In every change, He faithful will remain. —K. von Schlegel
