In Genesis 39, Moses tells us four times that God was with Joseph (Gen 39:2
I wonder if Joseph realized that the LORD was with him while he was in prison (for doing the right thing). Having our Bibles, we know the end of the story and realize that indeed God was with Joseph. But Joseph did not know how it would end while he was going through it. Do you think that when the baker was hanged, that Joseph might have gotten a little worried?
Jesus promised to be always with me, yet sometimes I forget and allow myself to feel alone. Just as God never abandoned Joseph, he will not abandon any of his children. If we trust Jesus for salvation, we should be able to trust that he never leaves us. This is true even when we are going through difficulties and have no clue how it could possibly work out.
