Meeting Grace in the Midst of Fear
When Joseph’s brothers were brought into his house, they were afraid.
They said to one another,
“We are brought here because of the money that was returned in our sacks.
He will accuse us and make us slaves.”
Their hearts were filled with fear.
But what they expected did not happen.
Joseph’s steward said to them,
“Peace be with you. Do not be afraid.
Your God, the God of your father,
has given you treasure in your sacks.”
They expected judgment,
but what they encountered was a word of peace.
A guilty heart often interprets every situation as punishment.
Yet God sometimes reveals unexpected grace
in the very place where we expect fear.
The house they entered with anxiety
became a place where they heard peace.
