Generations lived and died in the same village. To move away to a Gentile and pagan land, especially Egypt, was detestable to him. Yet, rather than argue and buck against God s word, he humbly packed up his things and went to Egypt. Because of Joseph s quiet faithfulness to God, our Savior was raised to be a healthy man. There are so many unsung heroes in our church today.
Teachers work day in and day out to educate our children.
Janitors get on their hands and knees to make this a beautiful place to be. Office Assistants make reams of copies so we can have programs to read. And they all do these things without receiving glory. They are just faithful servants who obey God, just like Joseph. They know that the Jesus they are serving is worth it all.
