Jacob recognized it instantly and cried out, “It’s my son’s robe! Some wild animal must have killed him. My son Joseph has been torn to pieces!” Overcome with grief, Jacob tore his clothes, put on sackcloth, and mourned for his son a long time.

Meanwhile, the Midianites took Joseph to Egypt and sold him to Potiphar, one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard.

Been dealing with disappointment? None of us are exempt from experiencing it. No matter who we are, we’ll all walk through times when we didn’t get what we wanted. So, what do we do with our disappointments? Is it wrong for us to feel this way? In this 4-Day Bible Plan, we’ll look at how we define, accept, process, and use our disappointments for good.
