PRAYER PAUSE

THEY CAME
TO JOSEPH
Pause. Enter into the stillness of God
within.
Reading: “People came from all over the world
to Egypt to buy bread from Joseph.” (Genesis 41:55 … 42:24)
Reflection. We are racing through Genesis with
all its symbolism of the purpose of God. Joseph has already been sold and is now
No. 2 in Egypt. He is going to be revealed to his brothers in the sharing of grain
for making bread and the symbolism continues. The brothers’ hearts will burn
within them when the recognise him. It is a great story and it is about
redemption, salvation, healing. If we are to draw from it we have to reflect on
it and let it speak to us.
Prayer. Lord, may we know you in the
breaking of the bread. Amen.
