Scripture Passage: Genesis 45:1-8
The Leader Sees the Big Picture
Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers and although he went through a season of great trials in a strange land, God finally exalted him and when he met his brothers again in Egypt, he did not reward them with evil for this wicked deed. He saw the big picture, that he was sent ahead of them into Egypt to preserve their lives from the famine.
The lesson here is this; unpleasant situations confront people from time to time but it takes a leader to see beyond the adversity to the blessing it carries. A leader will always see the big picture.
Prayer: Father, open my eyes to see the big picture and the blessing in every adversity.
