PF2 – Forgiving Others

Po Todd Beiswenger

It isn't easy to forgive others when they have so clearly done us wrong. But we have to. To not forgive leaves us captive to them. In this week's story we hear about Joseph, who is sold off into slavery, then imprisoned for a crime that he did not commit. When given the chance to get even, he instead offers reconciliation saying, "What you intended for evil, God intended for good." Those are words to live by.

5878. 'I am Joseph' means a revelation. This is clear without explanation.
