They Didn't Know

I learned something new in our study of Joseph -- a little gem I had never noticed before -- something that was implied but not said outright.  Here's what our commentary led us to notice: Pharoah was excited to learn that Joseph's brothers had come.  He was happy for Joseph. I had always thought this spoke well of Pharoah and Joseph's relationship.  That the Pharoah would be happy for him.  That Pharoah would want to meet Joseph's family. But the commentary pointed something else out. Joseph hadn't told Pharoah of his brother's sins. If Joseph had told Pharoah, Pharoah probably would have been ready to rush to Joseph's rescue and help him punish his brothers for betraying Joseph and selling him into slavery. But Pharoah didn't know.  He welcomed Joseph's brothers with open arms because he didn't have any pre-set prejudices against them. Joseph hadn't told his sob-story.  He didn't gossip.  He didn't seek sympathy or jus...

The Fall Feasts - 2021

  This year, the three Biblical Fall Feasts will all come in September.   As we prepare to celebrate them together, you may be asking “What are these Feasts?”   So let’s take a look at them, starting with the first one, Yom T’Ruah.

Thank you, Daddy

Image
(A picture I found online) Daddies are so important. For real. I could spend years telling you about the ways my Dad influenced my life for the better -- lessons he taught me, the love and security he gave me, the example he set for me, the way he understood me better than anyone else. But we'll save that for another day because my shining example this month is from my father-in-law. I think I've mentioned (a few times) how awesome my husband is.  Like, seriously, awesome. But some of those characteristics that I admire in Garrett, are there in his dad...and even in his grandfather.  And I can see how these things have been passed down through generations of godly men. Love -- the complete denying of your own needs to meet someone else's. Patience/Forgiveness/Grace -- the willingness to allow for mistakes to be made, without throwing them up in people's face or making them feel guilty or inferior. Reliability -- the steady dependableness that lets you ...
