Mid-Week Encouragement, May 26, 2021

If you remember the story of Joseph, one of the last verses in those chapters, you see an interesting verse.  "What was meant as evil, God uses for good" is a paraphrase of that verse (the full verse reads "But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive," Genesis 50:20).

This is a good verse to remember when things don't go our way.  This means that there is a greater purpose for what's happening to us, that God is still going to use a situation for His glory.

What situation are you going through right now that this passage (and promise) can be applied to your life?  God is always bigger than your situation.
