b'When Joseph is sold into slavery it seems that he has lost it all, except that Joseph has not lost what is most important: he hasn\\u2019t lost God\\u2019s divine and unmerited favor.

His circumstances seem devastating in the short term, but once God\\u2019s plan becomes clear, the Scriptures say that Joseph forgets his former trouble. As we\\u2019re told in Romans 8:28 \\u201cWe know that all things work together for the good of those who love God, who are called according to His purpose.\\u201d'
