We are not ready yet to realize the glory of God in Joseph's life. As he begins to rebuild a life as chief of staff for Potiphar. Joseph is a great executive and finds favor until Potiphar's wife wrongfully accuses him of making a an advancement toward her. He is thrown into prison and uses his "dream" gift for his "get out of prison card." In chapter 40, we find a third pitfall for Joseph. After he correctly gives interpretation to dreams, the cupbearer forgot Joseph. In Joseph's story so far we have three pitfalls.
1) Joseph is thrown into a pit and sold into slavery 2) wrongfully accused 3) forgotten
...the road to God's glory has many pitfalls for Joseph. Is this reassuring for any setbacks that come our way? Pitfalls do not have to be "the pits."
