~DARK LINES~

Hi ...

Greetings from India..

This is the day that the Lord has made, 

We will rejoice and be glad in it...

Here below I share a thought shared by our Pastor , long back.

This thought on "Dark lines"sure blessed me!!

Be blessed as you read the thought he shared.

Pastor said..."Dark lines make good paintings."

He said, the trials we face in life are like dark lines in our lives.

Joseph had many dark lines in his life.

He was hated by his brothers, they wanted to kill him, then sold him as a slave, then he was falsely accused by Potiphar's wife & sent to prison for no fault of his.

But that didn't drive him to sin, or turn him away from God but he ran to God.

Joseph had many dark lines even as a young boy. But God was with Him.

Genesis 39:2 says, " The Lord was with Joseph and he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master."

His endured hard times an found favor in the eyes of God and men.

He found favor in the eyes of Potipar.

The trials we face will build us up and make us better individuals if we look up to God.

Unbelievers will recognise who we are. We do not have to say anything.

Potipar noticed Joseph's integrity & seen he can be trusted.

Dark lines are "THE STROKES OF A MASTER PAINTER" and a " Master artist notices it."

In our canvas of life the 'Dark lines' sure stand out and bring the best in us.

Even in these trying situations, if we are faithful and walk in Purity, 

Promotions and Prosperity (Genesis Chapters 39 to41) will come.

Be Blessed,

YSIC,
