Protection not Punishment

 
Jonah

Jonah was not in the belly of the whale for punishment, but for protection.
God was not done with him yet, and he could not live in the water.
That's why God created a big fish for him, to protect him.
And he needed a quiet place to think!
 
 
 
Joseph

Joseph was first sold into slavery to get him to Egypt,
then was thrown in prison to protect him until the time was right.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Our Situation?

Is our situation to keep us from straying too far from the plan God has for us?
Is God training us for our next step?
Sometimes He has to put us in a situation to keep us still!
 
 
A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.
Proverbs 16:9
