Joseph’s story reminds us that even when people act with evil intentions, God is still at work accomplishing His good purposes. God starts the journey, uses unexpected people and circumstances along the way, and works through details we may not understand. Joseph’s obedience, betrayal, suffering, and even being stripped of his robe point us toward Jesus, who was also obedient to His Father, betrayed, silent before His accusers, and stripped of His robe. We can trust that God’s ways are higher than ours and that He is faithfully working even in our difficulties.
