#Examination of life!..
Gen 42:18 On the third day, Joseph said to them, “Do this and you will live, for I fear God:
#Reverence God!
Gen 42:19-20 If you are honest men, let one of your brothers stay here in prison, while the rest of you go and take grain back for your starving households. But you must bring your youngest brother to me, so that your words may be verified and that you may not die.” This they proceeded to do.
Gen 42:21 They said to one another, “Surely we are being punished because of our brother. We saw how distressed he was when he pleaded with us for his life, but we would not listen; that’s why this distress has come on us.”
#Guilty conscience!
Gen 42:22-23 Reuben replied, “Didn’t I tell you not to sin against the boy? But you wouldn’t listen! Now we must give an accounting for his blood.” They did not realize that Joseph could understand them, since he was using an interpreter.
Let us pray: O Lord, have mercy and forgive us from guilt in the name of Jesus
#Life questions and meditation:
1. Are you troubled by guilt of a past sin?
2. Do you know God can forgive you if you confess and ask for mercy?
