上帝仍在工作，我們仍在等待
創世記第40章發生在約瑟生命中艱難的時期。儘管他一直忠於上帝，卻被誣告並監禁。在監獄中，約瑟遇見了法老的酒侍和麵包師傅，兩人都被神秘夢境困擾。上帝賜予約瑟這些夢境的解讀權，正如他所說，酒侍得以恢復，而麵包師則被處決。
然而，本章以一句痛苦的話作結：
「然而，首席酒侍不記得約瑟;他忘了他。」（創世記 40：23）
從人性的角度來看，這一定非常令人失望。約瑟很可能希望恢復的酒侍能與法老對話，促成他的釋放。結果，他被遺忘了。
但上帝並未忘記約瑟。
創世記40章教導我們，神的旨意常常在看似無變的情況下展開。約瑟夫仍在監獄中，但上帝正為他安排進入宮殿。延遲並非否認。這份沉默並非遺棄。看似挫折的事，其實是在為更偉大的事物做準備。
許多信徒經歷像約瑟那樣的季節——禱告似乎未被回應，機會消失，人們忘記應許。然而，上帝依然信實。他看見了別人忽略的事。他記得別人會忘記。他的時機非常完美，即使與我們的預期有所不同。
當我們等待時，我們的呼召不是灰心，而是繼續忠心服事神，在祂所安排的地方，信靠祂在幕後工作。
我們祈禱：
天父，
感謝祢以約瑟為榜樣，並提醒我們祢總是在工作中，即使在等待與不確定的季節。
主啊，當我們感到被遺忘時，請幫助我們記得祢永遠不會忘記祢的孩子們。當門依然關閉，答案似乎遲遲未到時，請堅定我們的信心，信靠祢完美的時機。賜我們耐心等候祢，並賜我們勇氣在各種情況下保持忠誠。
教導我們全心全意服事祢，即使沒有人注意到，也沒有立刻的獎賞。請我們相信，祢正按照祢的旨意預備我們，就像祢在監獄的考驗中預備約瑟一樣。
每一位面對失望、孤獨或禱告未獲回應的信徒，請傾注你的安慰與平安。更新我們的盼望，提醒我們祢的計畫永遠美好，祢的應許從不失敗。
願我們安息於祢記得我們、看見我們，並引導我們旅程的每一步。
奉耶穌基督的名禱告。

God Is Still Working While We Wait
Genesis 40 takes place in a difficult season of Joseph’s life. Although he had remained faithful to God, he was falsely accused and imprisoned. In prison, Joseph met Pharaoh’s cupbearer and baker, both troubled by mysterious dreams. God gave Joseph the interpretation of those dreams, and exactly as he said, the cupbearer was restored while the baker was executed.
Yet the chapter ends with a painful sentence:
“The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot him.” (Genesis 40:23)
From a human perspective, this must have been deeply disappointing. Joseph likely hoped that the restored cupbearer would speak to Pharaoh and secure his release. Instead, he was forgotten.
But God had not forgotten Joseph.
Genesis 40 teaches us that God’s purposes are often unfolding even when nothing seems to be changing. Joseph was still in prison, but God was positioning him for the palace. The delay was not a denial. The silence was not abandonment. What appeared to be a setback was actually preparation for something greater.
Many believers experience seasons like Joseph’s—times when prayers seem unanswered, opportunities disappear, and people forget their promises. Yet God remains faithful. He sees what others overlook. He remembers when others forget. His timing is perfect, even when it differs from our expectations.
When we are waiting, our calling is not to lose heart but to continue serving God faithfully where He has placed us, trusting that He is working behind the scenes.
We pray:
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the example of Joseph and for reminding us that You are always at work, even during seasons of waiting and uncertainty.
Lord, when we feel forgotten, help us remember that You never forget Your children. When doors remain closed and answers seem delayed, strengthen our faith to trust in Your perfect timing. Give us the patience to wait upon You and the courage to remain faithful in every circumstance.
Teach us to serve You wholeheartedly, even when no one notices and no immediate reward is visible. Help us believe that You are preparing us according to Your purpose, just as You prepared Joseph through the trials of prison.
For every believer facing disappointment, loneliness, or unanswered prayers, pour out Your comfort and peace. Renew our hope and remind us that Your plans are always good, and Your promises never fail.
May we rest in the assurance that You remember us, You see us, and You are guiding every step of our journey.
In the name of Jesus Christ we pray.
