Shout Out to Joseph Study
Today I worked on a devotional for our staff team using Genesis 39:20-23 (page 96.9-14 for the LoJ folk) where God has favor on Joseph in jail. I'm primarily reflecting on Joseph's 'hopeful activity'--how Joseph neither falls into mindless work or into spiritual fatalism. As I've reflected on the past few weeks and how difficult it has been for me to work at Fuller I'm convicted of my own need to work hard in the situation that I am in and trust God's hand and movement in that, even as I dream of moving from this situation onto something new.

My bad about letting you know. But the good thing is that we can totally pester each other on blogs and mumble comments to ourselves. I like the Dilbert, and am glad that Joseph study is giving good material still! Miss ya bud!
hmmm, how has work been since writing this post? anything changed for you?
i also like the dilbert lol
and i also thought this was a deep post :P
ha ha! thanks for the compliment. ;)
Daniel, I hope you keep posting while you're Manila. I love to read your blog entries even when I don't fully understand them. Yay for where Jesus puts us! I think that concept of working hard from where we are is making a little more sense to me now.
