Genesis 37β41
βπππ π»πππ πππ π πππ πΉπππππβ
Sometimes bad things happen to good people.
Life teaches us that lesson clearly, and so does the life of Joseph, the son of Jacob.
He was heir to the covenant God had made with his fathers, but he was hated by his brothers and sold into slavery.
He refused to compromise his integrity when approached by Potipharβs wife and so was cast into prison.
It seemed that the more faithful he was, the more hardship he faced.
But all this adversity was not a sign of Godβs disapproval.
In fact, through it all, βthe Lord was with himβ (Genesis 39:3). Josephβs life was a manifestation of this important truth: God will not forsake us.
βFollowing the Savior will not remove all of your trials,β President Dieter F. Uchtdorf taught. βHowever, it will remove the barriers between you and the help your Heavenly Father wants to give you. God will be with youβ (βA Yearning for Home,β Ensign or Liahona, Nov. 2017, 22).
