Thought

Joseph’s story is one of riches to rags to riches again. He had been the favored son of his wealthy father, but when his brothers turned against him, he lost everything—except his God. God stayed with Joseph in every part of his path, and God’s wisdom placed Joseph as second-in-command at an important time for so many people suffering from the famine. Perhaps if someone else had been in control, they might have hoarded all the food for the richest people in Egypt or done something worse. But with Joseph as Pharaoh’s special advisor, many people were saved. We can be thankful that God’s plans are so much wiser and better than anything we can imagine!
