“You meant evil against me; but God meant it for good.”
-GENESIS 50:20
The
story of Joseph is not just the story of Joseph. It is the story of how
God works everything together for His Purpose. No matter how far
removed from that Purpose things seem to get, eventually we see its
fulfillment.
At
some point in eternity we will all stand before God and will finally
see His Ultimate Purpose
fulfilled. Then we will look back on the sad history of the human race
and we will see how God brought something good out of every evil thing
that ever rose up to challenge His Purpose. For some people the
existence of evil is a stumbling block. If God is good, why does He
allow evil? A better question is: how can God allow evil and still
manage to bring something good out of it in the end? Evil is not a
stumbling block to an all-powerful, all-knowing Creator who specializes
in bringing good out
of evil. What He did for Joseph He will do for all Creation.
