Embrace the Race: Persevering Through Challenging Times

DAY 4 OF 28

Growth Amid Hardship

Finding favor with the warden, Joseph found himself running the entire prison. What seemed like a terrible situation was another rung in the ladder of Joseph's leadership training. From running a prominent leader's household to overseeing a prison, Joseph is no longer the same boy thrown into the cistern. 

His unfavorable circumstances gave him an incredible work ethic, and his imprisonment was his crash course in corporate management. The skills he learned throughout this challenging season prepared him to lead the nation of Egypt amid a famine. If we embrace the opportunity within our crisis, we make room for development and personal growth. 

Daily Challenge:

How about you? Have you embraced opportunity amid your crisis? Choose to allow God to grow your character and skills as your press through your difficult circumstances.
