Genesis 42...

You can't make this stuff up!!!! Joseph's brothers come to Egypt and fulfill the dream of Joe a few chapters back. (one of the factors that lead him to Egypt in the first place). It had to be all the sweeter when Joseph realized that he was going unnoticed.

One thing that really stuck out is how quickly the brothers brought what they did to Joseph out on the table as a reason they were experiencing this trouble.

Years have passed since that day in the wilderness when they were contemplating murder finally settling on saling him. This action still seems to be haunting them.

Sin does that. It lingers and haunts and traps us in a prison of our own making. What we have to do is the hard part of exposing it by allowing the cross of Christ to break us free. Only when we do this will we experience life to the fullest.

Heart and Soul,
