Life offers some great surprises – new friends, engagements, pregnancies, new jobs, unexpected gifts. We can all think of good things that came our way that we were not expecting, and maybe we did not even deserve.
Picture this scene in your mind. For years, Jacob had lived, believing Joseph, his son was dead. Then one day, like all the other days he had known in the sadness of missing Joseph, some news arrives. Joseph is not only alive; he is doing well in Egypt. Jacob was overwhelmed at this news. Then Jacob rejoiced at the news and began to make plans to go see Joseph.
This story reminds us of God’s grace. On days that might seem like all the other long line of days in our lives, we can see God’s hand at work in ways we don’t expect and may not even deserve. Have you taken time recently to rejoice and thank God for His grace at work in your life?
Father, thank You for the fresh grace You send my way each morning.
