Key Points
All who place their faith in Christ are children of Abraham and share in Abraham's blessing (Genesis 12:1-3, Galatians 3:6-8).
Human failure is often the raw material for God’s work in us.
We face the same questions that ancient people faced: How do I cope with the apparent injustice of others receiving better outcomes in life than I do?
Think less about people and more about God.
Application
Can we humble ourselves and be part of the story God has for us and for the community around us?
Main Passage Excerpt:
So Jacob settled again in the land of Canaan, where his father had lived as a foreigner. This is the account of Jacob and his family. When Joseph was seventeen years old, he often tended his father’s flocks. He worked for his half brothers, the sons of his father’s wives Bilhah and Zilpah. But Joseph reported to his father some of the bad things his brothers were doing.
