Exodus 16:1-36; Psalm 52:1-54:7; Acts 9:1-31
Joseph is a fruitful bough … by a well; whose branches run over the wall. Genesis 49:22
He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season … Psalm 1:3
When we think of a wall, we often consider it a dead end. That was not the case for Joseph. No matter what happened in his life, he presssed on for God. When he was abiding close to God, the well of living water that sustained him, Joseph’s godly influence reached above and beyond the walls in his life. What do we do when we come to a wall? Is it the end, or a stepping stone to a richer and deeper outreach for the Lord? —Eleanor Isaacson
Press on, press on, count all things loss; all that is gain to us.
To win the prize, the Christ of God, is far more glorious! —D. M
