When God softens a seared conscience we begin to gain a different perspective.
Time doesn't erase distress. We have evidence of that in our own lives. We know from experience the inescapable reminders of our guilt.
The first step toward softening a seared conscience is taking responsibility for one's own personal guilt.
With authority comes the need for accountability. With popularity comes the need for humility. With prosperity comes the need for integrity.
God guided the writer of Genesis to reveal the truth about most every area of Joseph's colourful life.
During the waiting period, trust God without panic.
The God of Joseph will stay beside us during the dungeon days; He will not forsake or forget us.
If God was in it, God would do it. That's precisely what happened here. God was in it, and God did it.
You know why Joseph could be so humble and speak so openly? Because his heart had been broken. Because he had been tried by the fire of affliction.
That's what it's like when you're in a period of waiting. Nothing's happening! Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.
