Deuteronomy 5:1-33; Ecclesiastes 7:1-29; Luke 8:1-21
But remember me (Joseph) when it is well with you…I have done nothing here that they should put me into the [pit].
Genesis 40:14-15 NKJV
It is often in the “pit” experiences of life that God works to mold our character and bend our will to conform us to the image of Jesus Christ. In the pit, we have nowhere to look but up, and we learn that God is enough. The pit wasn’t Joseph’s choice, but it was here that God worked in him, to prepare him for Kingdom service. If we let Him, God can use our “pit experiences” to do the same for us. —Deborah Manera
God is looking for people through whom He can do the impossible.
What a pity that we plan only things we can do by ourselves. —A. W. Tozer
