Genesis 44-45
Verse one says, "Joseph could no longer contain himself". Joseph's secret is too much so he finally reveals who he is. A celebration of tears begins. Pharaoh even celebrates with Joseph and invites his family to live in Egypt.
Forgiveness can be very difficult. Joseph's brothers caused him incredible pain. But the moment he forgave his brothers, that act of forgiveness opened his life in new ways. God calls us to forgive because of how it opens up the opportunity for reconciliation. I believe God also calls us to forgiveness for how it opens our lives up for healing.
