—Genesis 40:9-23
by: Linda Harris.
Joseph did what we now call networking. Some commentators suggest that he shouldn’t have said anything, and that’s why God left him in prison for two more years. But if the cupbearer had remembered Joseph’s request immediately, Joseph might not have been available when Pharaoh had his dreams. God timed everything down to the last detail.
Waiting tries our patience. We often face challenges where we feel we have to do something other than wait and pray. But God won’t be rushed. God’s timing is perfect.
