Redeemed: Part 3 - Forgiveness

Joseph suffered for decades due to his brother’s cruel decision to sell him into slavery. And yet, eventually, Joseph rose to become Pharaoh’s second-in-command with great power and authority. It was in this setting that his brothers came, not recognizing Joseph, seeking grain because of a famine. Joseph was faced with a choice of getting vengeance on the brothers who had hurt him or trusting God and forgiving them. As hard of a decision as this might seem, Joseph seems to have found it easy, because of God’s goodness. Could this be a lesson for us as well?
