Day of Praise

"Joseph's master took him and put him in prison." - Genesis 39:20

 

Joseph was so faithful to God in every circumstance that he became what's called an archetype of Christ. But life in this world still dealt Joseph lemons. For example, Joseph's master's wife raged at Joseph's self-control and got him thrown in prison. Yet Joseph was faithful to God.

 

Has life ever dealt you lemons? How'd you deal with it?

 

Finish the phrase..."when life gives you lemons..."

 

Oldest daughter, Calley, suggests:

1. Make lemonade.

*Boring. It's the textbook answer. Live a little.

2. Make Lemon Meringue pie.

*Delicious alternative to Key Lime Pie.

3. Whiten your fingernails.

*Perhaps ladies will appreciate this option.

4. Kill weeds and ward off ants. *Literally and metaphorically.

5. Paint them green; call them limes.

*Her personal favorite.  

Life can deal lemons to all of us. Like Joseph long ago and a young lady today will tell us, it's an opportunity to be faithful to God. 

And to have some creative fun!!!

Bring on the lemons, and have a great day!!!

Praise God!
