Michelle Johnson writes, ''Sometimes we need to take a look at where we've been with God to really understand His faithfulness and love for us. She was staying with her son at the hospital following a serious surgery. On that particular morning, she was exhausted by their stay, and her steps were slow as she walked to the cafeteria for breakfast. But while waiting on the elevator, she realized she was on the 6th floor. The view out the window of the concrete roof held special significance.

Wouldn't it be awesome to hear Joseph's rendition of the events that took him from a dreary prison cell to the palace?
Daniel as he told how a faithful God kept him alive and unharmed during an entire night in a den of lions?
