Genesis 37
Joseph was betrayed by his brothers and sold into slavery. He was loved and treasured by His father, but many hated him and he was kicked. This passage relates to the NT because Jesus was initially treated the same way. He was tolerated by many, and when it became too much, his own disciples betrayed him. -

How does For continue to advance his mission to reflect His glory in this story?
God shows us that He prepares for His people. He had tested Abraham to see his loyalty to Him, and he prepared a ram in the end for him to sacrifice. It shows that He has everything in control.

Genesis 17:5-6
Today, millions of Arabs acknowledge Abraham as their lineal parent, as do millions of Jews. More than seven million Latter-day Saints hold him as their forefather, while more than one billion other Christians and Muslims consider Abraham to be their father symbolically. These numbers show the impressive fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham.

Genesis 22:8
I'm in a pretty difficult time in my life right now. I'm really stressed and impacted by the situations happening at home and in my daily schoolwork. In fact, doing Timetoast right now makes me want to legitamately cry. It's hard to see God working in our lives, but we need to keep in mind that He has a plan for us. Even when it seems hopeless, Abraham knew that God will provide, and we should too.
