Episode 277 - A Test of Character

Potiphar trusted Joseph so completely that Genesis 39 says, “he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat.”Joseph was given great responsibility, but Potiphar could not watch everything he did.That is where character is revealed. Character is not merely what we do when someone is watching; it is who we are when no one else would ever know.Every day presents quiet tests of character. Will we tell the truth when a lie would be easier? Will we work faithfully when the supervisor is away? Joseph understood that even when Potiphar could not see him, God could. That awareness shaped the way he lived.Your reputation is what others believe about you, but your character is what God knows to be true. Live today with integrity—and be as faithful in private as you appear to be in public.
