I just noticed something for the first time while reading through Genesis 41. (Don't you love that happens?) The wife given to Joseph was the daughter of a pagan priest. We know what happened when Ahab married a woman of a nation of idol worship. He followed her like the proverbial puppy dog. It appears, however that Joseph remained God's man - remaining aware of Him as the Director of his steps (Genesis 41:51, 52; 45:7-9) That inspires, doesn't it? No matter what our circumstances we can remain faithful to God. Thank God for Joseph's stellar example!
