[Mary Naeem]

Genesis 45:4-5


"So Joseph said to his brothers, 'Come near to me, please.' And they came near. And he said, 'I am your brother, Joseph, whom you sold into Egypt. And now do not be distressed or angry with yourselves because you sold me here, for God sent me before you to preserve life.'"

Reflection: Joseph's forgiveness and reconciliation with his brothers demonstrate the power of God's providence and the importance of brotherly love.
