Day 12

Nov 12: Gen 44-46
I love how wise Joseph is. When he is revealing his true identity to his brothers, he tells them that God had used them to sell Joseph and that Joseph was now being used to save them from the famine. It seems like such a crazy plan that God had, but Joseph trusted in it 100% and is finally in the place to see it all come to fruition.
I've been hearing a lot these days about Godly wisdom vs human intelligence and how completely different they are. You would think that if you were a really bright and smart person, that you would be wise too but this isn't the case. I also think that your intelligence is something that you are born with, you're either smart or not very smart and there's not much wiggle room there. Wisdom, on the other hand, is something you can learn, something that God can teach you if you really seek it out. I know I'm reading Genesis, but I pray that I can be like Solomon and really ask God for wisdom; not for personal or selfish reasons, but so that I can glorify God more in how I live my life. So I can discern right from wrong, so I can help brothers and sisters in need with a Godly perspective, and so that the light God has provided me continues to shine.
