Greetings truth seekers and welcome back to another episode of the truth seekers

podcast. A truth seeker is someone who wants to know the truth. They search for

what's true and they won't rest until they find it. I am a truth

seeker and if you are too then you've come to the right place where we will search

for truth each week in the stories of the Bible. In our last episode we left Joseph in prison.

Joseph had been thrown in prison for something he didn't do.

And to top that, the cup-bearer whose dream Joseph interpreted, forgot all about Joseph

and didn't mention him to Pharaoh when he was restored to his place in the palace. So there sat Joseph in prison. Do you know how

long Joseph waited in prison? Two whole years Joseph waited in prison for two years for a crime that he did not commit.

Now here is where I must ask you a question truth seekers.

Have you ever had something done to you that you felt was unfair?

Maybe you were blamed for something you didn't do, like Joseph. Maybe someone did something to you or hurt

you when you hadn't done anything wrong. Let me tell you a little secret. There are going to be times in your life when things happen to you that

aren't fair. It's all how we react to those things that matter. Did you notice how Joseph responded to the unfair situations in his life?

The Bible tells us that Joseph worked hard in whatever situation he found himself in, and

he didn't complain. He trusted God despite what had been done to

him. I'm sure it was hard for Joseph and I'm sure there were times when he asked God what is going on.

But Joseph put his trust in God.

And God rewarded him for that.

After two years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream.

Oh boy, here we go with another dream.

Pharaoh dreamt that he was standing by the Nile River.
