Dear Diary;
Amen Alleluia El’ Elohim! I am home again, and the best news of all: Yosef is willing to take me as his wife! Yes, you read correctly! Yosef is willing to take me as his wife! I will not be put aside after all! I will not have to endure the shame, and awful humiliation of a divorce! I clung to him like I would never let go while the tears rained down my cheeks. He kept caressing my face, and wiping at the tears with his thumbs, saying “There, there, it’s all alright.”
I wasn’t the only one that was crying though. He turned aside once, and used his sleeve to dry off his wet cheeks. He confessed that he was also relieved it had worked out this way. That told me a lot about how devoted he is to me, and to HaShem. After we got somewhat over our joyous reunion we sat down on the curved bench in a shady nook, and he told me what caused him to change his mind. It was a dream!
How thrilling! The Lord God, Yahweh, sent an angel to visit Yosef one night in order to convince him to marry me after all.
It makes me nervous to think HaShem is so closely involved in our lives.
Hilde is being more considerate towards me now that Yosef made his decision, and told her about the dream. Perhaps she cannot quite believe it, but if her precious Yosef is happy with me, that is good enough for her. What ever he does seems to be about perfect in Hilde’s eyes. I wonder if I will ever act that way towards my sons.
