A PURPOSEFUL LIFE; OLD TESTAMENT STORIES

            GOD MEANS IT FOR GOOD

                        PART LXXII 

"I, Joseph, the official in charge of the grain distribution here in Egypt, have anxiously been waiting for my family...They are supposed to come here.... Of course, each day I have had to go about my daily duties as usual... So no-one knew what was going on in my heart....But I kept looking out for my family....And then, earlier today, my brother Judah appeared!... I was so happy to see him....I took him aside the moment I was able to do so.... I provided him with some refreshments before asking him any questions.... As soon as he had had something to eat and to drink, I asked him how their trip had gone so far... I wanted to know if the carts I had provided for the family had been comfortable for them to travel in... I was so pleased to hear that travelling in the carts had made all the difference for my father as well as the wives and children of my brothers... I then explained to Judah the best way for them to travel to Goshen... After Judah left I got myself ready.... It is time for me to go to Goshen... For it is time for me to see my father!!... Please read the typed out attachment when you will learn that Joseph gets himself ready to meet his father....

                                                               PART LXXII

After Judah's visit to Joseph to let him known that his father with his entire family has arrived in Egypt, Joseph goes to meet him as you can read in Genesis 46:28b - 29a

When they arrived in the region of Goshen, Joseph had his chariot made ready and went to Goshen to meet his father Israel.

No doubt, Joseph has been waiting for this moment ever since his brothers left for Canaan just a short while ago.
