Psalm 6:2
Have you ever struggled to trust again after being deeply hurt? Joseph, sold into slavery by his own brothers, faced this very challenge. In Genesis, he orchestrates a test to see if their hearts have changed, wrestling with the wounds of betrayal while seeking reconciliation. Like Joseph, we carry scars from past hurts. These wounds can keep us from trusting others or believing in the possibility of restoration. Yet, God’s healing power invites us to let go of the pain and trust Him to mend what is broken. Forgiveness doesn’t erase the past but transforms it, allowing us to move forward in freedom and peace. Let Joseph’s story inspire you to bring your wounds to God. Trust in His grace to heal and restore, making way for renewed relationships and hope-filled futures.
