GENESIS 37:1-11
Joseph knew he was destined for greatness having it revealed in a dream that he proudly shared with his brothers. He didn't doubt that it would come to pass. Yet, knowing God's great purpose for him didn't enable him to avoid hardship, nor did it protect him from suffering. But, it very well could have given him the mental and spiritual strength to persevere!
Jesus was also aware of being anointed by God, AND He knew it required that He sacrifice His life. To fulfill the will of God, Jesus turned to prayer in all things. He was obedient to God and trusted God completely.

We may not know God’s plans for us but we do know God always has a purpose. Understanding that God is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent enables us to trust and obey Him with assurance. Those attributes of God mean that He is present everywhere at the same time. He is all-knowing. He is all-powerful with a supreme power that has no limits.
God is the One to rely on for hope in all things. He is with us always! There is no reason to turn away from God or to question if there is a point to this life. Instead, be filled with the confidence that God has placed you exactly where you are supposed to be, exactly when you are supposed to be there.
