Reply To: Forgiveness

[Anonymous]

After all of the trials and tribulations that Joseph went through; from being sold into slavery and falsely imprisoned, to being made the cupbearer and second in command of Egypt, he still trusted God and believed all of God’s promises for his life. So, this trust and belief in God’s will made it easier for him (including any struggles or passing thoughts of revenge) to forgive his brothers and to be reunited with them. God’s plan for him was much bigger than any doubt or fear that might have crept into his thoughts, so Joseph and his family were rewarded as God had promised.
