I can see plainly now. I desire to reconcile with my mate but his heart has not changed. God allows me to see it every time.

But have ALWAYS wondered about this testing he did to his brothers. I thought it was possibly his way of repaying them back, but then it says at the end, “you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good”, and, “I will provide for you and your little ones.” Thus he comforted them and spoke kindly to them.” I knew my suspicions didn’t fit, but didn’t get it. It’s always left me so confused. This explains it in such a beautiful and right way. What a help and an answer to prayer. I’ve been agonizing over the thoughts, “how will I know he’s changed?” This helps!!!!
