In Never Give Up, Max Lucado touched on the story of Joseph and how his brothers sold him out to slavery. They literally threw their own brother into a pit and tied him up. They disrobe him of his coat of many colors. Then they all went to have a meal. Max explained how his pit come in the form of a cistern. He compared this to someone being thrown into the unemployment line, someone going through an unwanted divorce, a death, or being abused. Joseph went through abandonment and then enslavement and even imprisonment. He never gave up even when faced with difficult challenges. He eventually rose to be second in command next to Pharaoh. What his brothers meant for evil turned out to be used for his good. It doesn’t happen instantly most times it takes years before we may even realize what the good thing was. The book also contained a 7-day devotional covering statements of strengths to encourage readers to continue on their journey and to remind us never to give up.
I would recommend this awesome book to anyone is dealing with life in a pit and they feel stuck. They maybe feeling the notice to give up. This book is a perfect reminder never to give up on life and to keep moving forward. Joseph never gave up even when he went thru the many different stages in his life. The principles in this book will remind us to trust no matter what we may encounter and to keep fighting the good fight.
