John M. Piper > Quotes

“When Joseph was promoted at Potifar's house he probably thought he'd made it. He probably thought that his suffering was over, his healing was complete and that he had arrived at what God had planned. But he still wasn't there. He still wasn't at the goal God had for him. It may have felt like a good place to be. He was still a slave, but with control over the household and more responsibility than he had ever had before. But more suffering was coming.”
― John M. Piper, The Wounded Christian : - A Love Letter to a Broken Child of God
