He Gets the Last Word
May 28, 2023 • Micah Priest • 1 Peter 5:8–11, Genesis 50:19–21
Have you ever been so frustrated at a situation that you wanted to throw something? Have you felt angry and resentful at God for a situation you feel stuck in?
Sometimes things don't turn out the way we hoped they would — getting laid off from a job, a loved one passing away, going through a divorce, stress, isolation — it's easy to feel overwhelmed and stuck waiting for better days.
A large section at the beginning of the Bible is dedicated to the story of a man who faced repeated difficulties and had to trust and wait on God. Through all of the highs and lows of Joseph's life, he learned that God was working everything for good.
We'll see how God is using the difficulty in our lives to shape us and prepare us for something so much more.
