Joseph sat in a cold dark prison for two whole years waiting on Pharoah’s cupbearer to put in a good word for him so that he could be released. But, all the while - nothing happened.
It would have been easy for Joseph to think God had forgotten all about him. But, Joseph knew that God had
promised to take care of him. He trusted God through it all, and ultimately God came through.
Often, we don’t see the hand of God working and begin to think that God has forgotten us. But, the Lord says He will never fail us or forsake us.
We must not misinterpret the silence and understand that God is working behind the scenes even when we can’t see it.
