Loving Father, thank You for the story of Joseph, which is a wonderful picture of the Lord Jesus. Thank You that the brutish, bullying behaviour of Joseph's eleven brothers was transformed into a precious picture of God's protection and loving-care for His people. Lord, keep me from evil, but I pray that when troubles and hardships come my way that, like Joseph, I may trust you implicitly. Help me to rest in the truth of Your Word, knowing that You work all things for good. Thank You that Your grace is always sufficient, no matter what I face. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
