Joseph was taken as a slave into Egypt. His stand before the court of Pharaoh was a preparation for the coming of his father and brethren and their own destiny. Moral greatness never appears so magnificent as when it keeps others from falling, when it inspires them to take the same stand. Young people who follow in the footsteps of Joseph, Daniel, Moses, and Paul, amid the downward moral trend of our times, are more majestic in the sight of heaven than all the cathedrals of the world. We have every reason to be converted to Christ.
Every sound has an echo.
Every light has a shadow. Every act we do, every word we speak, every thought we think, effects consequences upon others, as well as upon ourselves. Refuse to take one step that will weaken another's character. Nothing pays off so miserably as that which weakens and destroys another person morally and spiritually. Then it's ours to give the savor of life.
