Joseph’s reconciliation with his brothers begins, brought about by circumstances of the famine in Egypt.
The story of Joseph can encourage us as believers to remember that we are children of the One who holds the power over nations and people; He can use any circumstances for our good and His glory.
Despite his circumstances, Joseph trusted, honored, and glorified God; he provides an example to us today of trusting God even when it’s hard to see how God is working.
The fact that God’s view of time is different than ours and that there are many instances of precognition (seeing events before they happen, as in the case of John and the book of Revelation) are two reasons to reject our conventional view of time as complete. While some have proposed multiple dimensions of time to explain these phenomena, there’s much we simply do not know, except that our ordinary sense of time seems to be inadequate.
