Joseph

Every person has an idea of how their life should turn out. Sometimes, our notions about what the future will hold is impressed on us by other people or by the circumstances that surround us. Whatever our plans and expectations, somewhere down the line life will surprise us.

In the Old Testament, a man named Joseph knew all about surprises. For much of his life, his plans and dreams seemed to result only in frustration and disappointment. Joseph, however, came to understand that his story was part of a bigger story . . . a God-sized story.
