"Judah's Plea"
Genesis 44:14-34
When Judah was younger, he showed no regard for his brother Joseph or his father, Jacob. First, he convinced his brothers to sell Joseph as a a slave (37:27); then he joined his brothers in lying to his father about Joseph's fate (37:32). But what a change had taken place in Judah! The man who sold one favored little brother into slavery now offered to become a slave himself to save another favored little brother. He was so concerned for his father and younger brother that he was willing to die for them. When you are ready to give up hope on yourself or others, remember that God can work a complete change in even the most selfish personality.
