We often hear of a large corporation failing due to dishonesty in reporting their financial status. The executives and their auditors can even face criminal charges for doctoring financial statements in the company’s favor. Inevitably, many workers find themselves jobless when it collapses. Investors quickly lose confidence in the business based on the dishonest conduct of a few people, and many honest employees suffer.
Just a handful of individuals control the reputation of a corporation, it takes only one godly person to increase someone’s confidence in the Lord. When Pharaoh complained about a perplexing dream, his butler remembered the insightful Hebrew who had helped him in prison. Two years after Joseph interpreted the butler’s dream, he had the chance to witness to Pharaoh himself. Through honesty and kindness, Joseph continued to earn the confidence of others and give them meaningful glimpses of the God he diligently served.
Lord, may my action lead others to trust in You.
