One of the enduring and encouraging truths in Scripture is that God never leaves us alone. He is always with his children, even though his plan for life may take us through some strange places. Today, in the life of Joseph, we see God taking Jacob to a strange place—Egypt. It is strange because it is taking him away from that land that God had promised him, and it is strange because it is a place that both his father had been told not to go to Egypt. But today we are reminded that God is working out his plan through the mess we call life, even when it takes us to some strange places. And when we are confident that God is working out his plan in our lives, we can live in strange places and wait to see the abundant provision of God.
