As I was doing some Bible study this morning, I was reminded of something important: the faithfulness of one can affect the masses. Think about it. The faithfulness of Martin Luther King Jr. to equality impacted the world. The faithfulness of Mother Theresa to the poor impacted the world. A true faithfulness can have a negative impact too, when it leads in the wrong direction. The faithfulness of Adolf Hitler to his cause impacted the world. Because of the dedication of these people to there ideals, they are household names and have deeply impacted their community and the world forever.

This morning I read in Genesis about Joseph. As a young man, Joseph was his father's favorite son and all of his brothers knew it. Long story short, his brothers sold him into slavery and then faked his death to his father. Joseph went through many trials, faced temptations, but remained faithful to his God in the face of it all. Because of his faithfulness, Joseph was eventually put into a position to rule over all of Egypt...I would imagine this to be along the lines of being President of the United States. He was one of the most powerful men in the world. He arrived to a position of influence and power by being faithful in the little things and in the hard time. Because of his faithfulness, he was able to bless and entire nation. In this position, he was also able to turn around a bless his brothers in a time of famine. His family was given the best of the best, not because they deserved it. These were the same men that sold their brother. They were blessed because of Joseph's faithfulness.

Will your faithfulness to Christ be life changing to others?
