Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Reading : GENESIS chapter 37 verses 12-36
Meditation : take time and consider all that happens here
Joseph is sold by his brothers.
Joseph is taken to Egypt.

What images or words stay with you?

And then Pray with honest words to this God of ours in response

Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them
and who depend on the LORD their God,
the Creator of heaven, earth, and sea,
and all that is in them.
He always keeps his promises;
He judges in favour of the oppressed
and gives food to the hungry

And so we ask, Holy Spirit,
Have mercy on our family members
Even those far from You and from our homes
Amen – we pray together.
