What the Lord provides according to His will may not seem to be what we dream of or desire. But it certainly is according to the Lord's heavenly provision. Which is beyond our imagination, exceedingly abundant, more than we can ever ask or imagine.

Joseph's career may not have seemed to be going according to his desires. He probably wanted to be head shepherd and own the most sheep his dad could give him and that he could rear. Being a slave in a foreign land may have been far from his dreams. However, God's provision was much beyond his narrow imagining. God led Joseph to be Prime Minister of Egypt, whereas he would probably have settled at richest shepherd of a nomadic clan.

Don't let your earthly desires trap you in a place where God can't use you for the purpose you were created.
