Growing in Christ - September 23, 2007
The
account of Joseph continues in the Sunday School lesson today. Genesis 39 teaches us that the Lord was with
Joseph so that His people could be saved.
The children will learn that Christ, a descendant of Joseph's brother,
is with us in every situation, earning our salvation from sin when He died and
rose again. A family discussion could
begin about temptations. Joseph resisted
the temptation to do wrong with Potiphar's wife but still suffered when she
falsely accused him. Joseph served in
Potiphar's house just as we serve in our various vocations. God was with Joseph, and in Christ, God is
with us in all situations of life, providing, protecting, and forgiving.
