From the pit to the prison (and to the palace, too)

"If ever there was a man whose heart could have been overwhelmed in depression, it was Joseph, the son of Jacob. Yet, in the midst of many lonely years, from the pit to the prison, Joseph joyfully served God and those around him. God has a way of keeping us standing secure and serene on the rock, even when the world throws us into the pit." -- comments quoted from Rodgers Baptist Church's Verse of the Day, Tuesday October 10, 2006
