If you're feeling unappreciated or rejected because of your gifts and talents, this article is for you. People who are gifted often face many challenges and obstacles, but you can take comfort in knowing that God will always work things out for your good if you are faithful. In the case of Joseph, God used circumstances that were designed to hurt him as a platform for his success. He can do the same for you. You can also take comfort in knowing that Jesus understands what you are going through seeing that He too was rejected by His own people. The Bible calls him "the man of sorrows, acquainted with grief" (Isaiah 53:3) and tells us that He was despised and rejected. Despite all this, God exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him a name above every other name. So don't give up on your dreams and ambitions—keep pressing on in spite of the challenges you face.
