Stranded
February 7, 2013

Traveling by bus from Memphis, Tennessee, to St. Louis, Missouri, typically takes about 6 hours—unless the bus driver leaves you stranded at a gas station. This happened to 45 passengers aboard a bus who waited 8 hours overnight for a replacement driver after the original driver abandoned them. They must have felt frustrated by the delay, anxious about the outcome, and impatient for rescue.

Joseph probably shared those feelings when he landed in prison for a crime he didn’t commit (Gen. 39). Abandoned and forgotten by any human who might help him, he was stranded. Still, “the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor” (v.21). Eventually, the prison warden promoted Joseph to oversee fellow inmates, and whatever Joseph did, “the Lord made it prosper” (v.23). But despite God’s presence and blessing, Joseph remained incarcerated for years.

You may be stranded in a hospital room, a jail cell, a country far from home, or your own inner prison. No matter where you are, or how long you’ve been there, God’s mercy and kindness can reach you. Because He is God Almighty (Ex. 6:3) and present everywhere (Jer. 23:23-24), He can protect, promote, and provide for you when it seems no one else can help.

Dear God, help us to remember
Your presence and power even when
we are not where we want to be in life. Remind us
to reach for You when no one else can reach us.

God is present—even when we feel He is absent.

Read: Genesis 39:19-23

The Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy. —Genesis 39:21

Bible in a Year:
Leviticus 1-3; Matthew 24:1-28

The Soldier’s Code _________________________________________________________________________________________

1) I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.

3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in every way.

5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies, or harmful to their cause.

6) I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, August, 1955.

Thank you, Connie Lou! (((hugs)))

It’s good to see you! Hope you are having a quiet week!

[luvie]

Thank goodness you’re better and I pray that your dear mom will be well, soon, too! I know it is a concern when a loved one is so ill!

[luvie]

I’ll bet it is nice to have some warmer weather. Actually, ours has been in the 60s and 70s. Nice, but I just hope it doesn’t mean a killer summer like last year. I truly dread that!

I am safely home...streets are nasty. Some snow all day, temps above freezing, lots of slick corners, BUT most everyone on the street was behaving themselves. Only one weaver in and out, but I met him at the next light. LOL!!! I love it when that happens...their idiocy gets them nowhere. Hehehe!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Mac, for our National Anthem....singing along.
