A Salty Servant

What an incredible example given to us in the person of Joseph. We learned last week of some godly traits that all believers should exhibit seen in his life. He was honest, honorable, humble, hopeful and holy. This week in the text we are considering we see two more traits of a godly person evident in his life. He was a servant and he was salty. No matter what he did, no matter where he found himself, he served others. He had their best interest at heart whether it was in the home of Potiphar as a slave or in prison as a prisoner or now as second ruler over Egypt he put the well-being of others before himself. That goes back to his humility. But he also was salty. He was not ashamed of putting God out there, whether it was to Pharaoh or in the naming of his two sons. He was a light pointing people to the one true and living God. We would do well to follow his example. Our culture needs believers to be a Joseph. Will that be us?
