“Stories Matter”- Week 4

Stories Matter – “Joseph’s Highs and Lows” – Duane Mixon

Joseph lived a life that was a lot like ours. His life wasn’t all good and it wasn’t all bad. It was full of ups and downs, highs and lows. And like a lot of us Joseph’s story didn’t exactly turn out the way he thought it would. The thing about Joseph is that in the good and the bad he consistently paid attention to God. Through it all he continued to lean into God, looking at his own life through the lens of what God was doing. The truth is that God is present and that He is always working in both the ups and downs of our lives too. It’s up to us to pay attention, to learn, and to believe that even what others mean for evil, God purposes for good!
