About this listen
Genesis Chapter 45, Verse 2
He broke out into loud weeping; the Egyptians heard it, and word spread until the members of Pharaoh’s household heard about it, as well. וַיִּתֵּ֥ן אֶת־קֹל֖וֹ בִּבְכִ֑י וַיִּשְׁמְע֣וּ מִצְרַ֔יִם וַיִּשְׁמַ֖ע בֵּ֥ית פַּרְעֹֽה:
Today I am inviting you to be vulnerable as you build relationships. In the spirit of Joseph's story, we might all be better people if we lean into our emotional side.
In the story, Joseph is overcome with tears as he reconnects to his family. At this holiday season when relationships often seem strained, this skill is deeply helpful. Enjoy this one verse as you move into 2026.
Happy New Year.
