Reflection for March 14, 2017

"But Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept."(Genesis 33:4)

Have you ever had a falling out with a friend or family member? I've been fortunate to have not experienced this, but I can imagine that it would be painful.

What might be even more painful is knowing that your paths may cross again. And the anticipation of how the person you feel estranged from will react to seeing you.

One can hope that it would be like Esau and there would be joy at seeing each other again, and letting the past be in the past.  It could also go the other way.  But sometimes the trust needs to be there to see the other person and see what God may do to the reunion.

Blessings,
Ed
