Genesis 50:15–23
God’s will is often fulfilled in strange ways.
Joseph’s dreams as a teenager indicated that he would rule over his brothers.
Little could he have imagined that the road to his destiny would include their trying to kill him and then selling him into slavery, his spending time in prison, and eventually his rule in the nation of Egypt.
Those experiences built into Joseph the character qualities and the wisdom he needed for his calling.

God works the same way, preparing us for our calling.
He uses our circumstances and experiences to shape us into the person He wants us to be.
