Joseph set a vital example for young people who serve God today. For instance, when they are in school, they may at times find themselves in an environment that feels strange and foreign, at world fascinated with the occult and bound up with a grim and hopeless outlook on life. If you are in that situation, remember that Jehovah has not changed. (James 1:17) He still proves to be with all those who stay loyal to him and who seek to work hard in a way that pleases him. He blesses them richly, and he will do the same for you.
In the meantime, the account tells us, Joseph was maturing. The youth became a man, and a "well built and handsome" one at that. Those words suggest that danger was looming. for the gift of physical beauty often bring unwanted and inappropriate attention.
