How does Joseph's story illustrate God's grace?

In the story of Joseph, his eventual reconciliation with his brothers highlights the grace of God. Despite the grave wrongs committed against him—being sold into slavery by his brothers—Joseph shows compassion and kindness when they come to him for help. This act parallels God's grace towards sinners; though we have sinned against Him, He forgives and provides for our needs through Christ. Just as Joseph revealed his identity and assured his brothers that what they meant for evil, God meant for good, so too does God use our failings to display His redemptive grace.
