I've seen so many stories featured on the news stations and/or online articles having to do with murders among families. Joseph is a great story in the bible because it show how God uses an evil act and works behind the scenes in Joseph's life to protect him. It gives us encouragement that even when others want to harm us, God has a greater good planned for believers and our own understanding will be enlightened in the end.

I just thought surely it has to be rare. Sibling rivalry sure is very prevalent, certainly in my family. But actually physically harming is so awful to contemplate. I have a fault in me, i gi around assuming people are decent and most are good. I am idealistic and naive. I don't want to be cynical. Hi, Not being rare doesn't make it common place either I suppose. From what I have seen many of us make it to our own death beds at a ripe old age and just up and die. I too do not like to dwell long on what just awful stuff happens. Idealistic is a fine quality one to nourish, being a naif is also a bit of a blessing. Seeking the good in all is far more fun than is pointing out the bad. If I am to suffer the sin of envy I think I would rather enjoy envying the polyanna personalities among us for their joy, and partake in some of it for myself.
