Summary: Genesis 39–41
Serving is not something that we do only when it is convenient or comfortable. Joseph struggled with slavery and wrongful imprisonment but continued to trust God in each place and used each opportunity to serve and glorify God.

What does this say about God?
God walks with us through hard times and gives us opportunities to serve even then. He is faithful to use even the hard parts of our lives in His grand redemption.
