Requirements of the Kingdom are
Much stricter than the law’s decrees;
No other requisite of God
Has ever higher been than these.

“Repent, the Kingdom has come near,”
This is the Kingdom’s first demand;
A change of mind we all must have
And on God’s side must firmly stand.

That we the Kingdom enter in,
Surpassing righteousness we need,
Exceeding that which is of law;
From life alone it must proceed.

We need to do the Father’s will,
Not by our choice to work or act
But His one purpose to fulfill.

That we as God should perfect be;
This standard we must fully meet
That we may share its ecstasy.

Joseph seemed to be saying to his brothers, “Your intention was evil, but God’s intention was marvelous. He intended to send me here to save many lives. Please do not be bothered. I thank you for what you did to me. You helped God to fulfill His purpose. ” In the church life we need this kind of spirit. Even if others offend you, you need to consider that whatever they do to you is of God. If you take everything as of God, all the offenses will be over.
