a) Our lives have their ups and downs too. Never forget God, whether you are up on top or down at rock bottom. Sometimes we have adversity even when we do good. God is always guiding us, even when things seem blackest. We can react to adversity with wisdom, faith, hope, and love, just as Joseph did. God will not forsake us. Trust at all times in his good promises.
