No season of waiting, setback, or suffering is wasted in God’s hands. The story of Joseph reminds us that even what feels like a delay is often divine preparation. The pit wasn’t the end. The prison wasn’t permanent. And the promotion didn’t come a moment too soon. When God rewrites a life, He uses every chapter, every disappointment, every injustice, every unseen tear, to position us for a purpose bigger than we imagined. So today, consider this: where might God be preparing you right now for something you can’t yet see?
