The Faith of Joseph: From the Pit to the Palace, Slave to Sire, Prisoner to Prime Minister (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781690944539)

This is a book for these times. In an increasingly polarized world, many people face daily challenges and difficulties. When visited by the vicissitudes of life; they find it difficult to get up, push on and persevere. Their lives have become a seesaw characterized by suffering and sorrow, trials and tribulations, pain and purgatory on earth. Many are lost, most are driven to despair, desperation and desolation. Life loses its meaning; joy is squeezed out of all existence. Every day is another dance with torment and torture. Today is another date with the persecution chamber, and tomorrow a desolate and barren desert. Unaware that the wilderness is the birthing place of greatness, and devoid of any new ideas to escape the pain and suffering of today, the future looks bleak, and many have given up on life itself - and surrender too early to what they consider a hopeless and meaningless existence; perhaps out of embarrassment, fear and even shame. They lose sight of the hope and promise of tomorrow; and fail to understand that the darkest hour is before dawn; and that the sun will shine again in their lives This book is for them. Joseph's life story gives us hope - sold into slavery by the brothers he loved, accused of crimes he did not commit, sentenced to a jail and in the dungeons of Pharaoh in a foreign land, he remained diligent, principled, hopeful, joyous and kept his faith in the Living God. The story of Joseph is all at once a story of pain, suffering, rejection and denial. But it is also a story of hope, of promise for a better tomorrow, of survival and of perseverance and courage in the face of great struggle. More than anything else, it is a story of hope and unshakable faith in the promises of God; in the sanctity of his covenant; and in the glory that awaits his anointed. It is a story of triumph and redemption; of forgiveness and healing. It is a beautiful story that restores our hope in tomorrow, and tells us that the pit of today will make way for the palace of tomorrow; that the slave of today will become the Sire of tomorrow, and that the prisoner of today will become the prime minister of tomorrow. Success is inevitable This is a book for both the believer and the non-believer. It is a book that affirms that fidelity to the truth, a commitment to one's values and obedience to a God given vision will carry us through to triumph. May it bless you and may it light your path; hold the promise of peace, joy and prosperity for you tomorrow
