everlasting effectsYou know, one of my favorite examples from the Bible is the story of Joseph and his brothers — it’s such a powerful reminder that sometimes what feels completely wrong in the moment turns out to be exactly right in the long run.
So here’s Joseph, the favorite son, dreaming big dreams, and then — bam! His own brothers betray him, throw him into a pit, and sell him into slavery. He ends up in Egypt, first as a servant, then falsely accused and tossed into prison. If anyone had a reason to say, “This life path clearly isn’t for me,” it was Joseph.
But fast-forward a few years, and all those twists — the betrayal, the prison, the crazy ups and downs — they land him in a position of incredible power. He becomes the second most powerful person in Egypt. And not only does he save the entire country from famine, but he also ends up saving those very same brothers who betrayed him.
There’s this beautiful moment where he tells them:
“You meant to harm me, but God meant it for good.”
To me, it’s the ultimate “you don’t see the whole picture yet” kind of story. What felt wrong, painful, and totally off-track was actually the perfect path — just one he couldn’t recognize at the time.
P.S. Well, my point is: maybe we don not see the whole picture and "plan" for us here and now?🤔 Maybe esto es bueno?

Not my fortune cookie for today, saying, "Call you ex. That’s what you need tonight!". 😆 No bueno, no bueno.
