Family vs. Foolishness

Hey do you remember Joseph in the bible? Well did you know that Joseph's own brothers sold him into slavery, out of pure jealousy. Slavery! They had so much hatred in their hearts towards Joseph. They lied to their father and told him Joseph had been killed by an animal while out hunting. Joseph was made a prisoner in Pharoah's kingdom, but while he was there God showed him favor and Pharoah made him in charge of all of Egypt. Now think about this, what his brothers meant for his bad, God turned around made it work out for his good. Later on Joseph's brothers ended up needing Joseph because a horrible famine had come across the land. Joseph was kind to them and gave them food in the midst of the famine in spite of what they had done to him.

Many times we let small things come between us and our families'. An argument, disagreement, or even money issues has has nothing on being sold into SLAVERY. Let it go, forgive. God still heals and that includes hearts.
