Joseph : The King of Dreams

Well, I was checking up on Joseph(Genesis 37-50) for my HopeSem assignment,
and in my endeavours, I found a cartoon regarding him; Joseph : The King of Dreams.


Please see this webbie for more information.

I really like Joseph as a character.
I first bumped into him in tuesday's quiz which asked,

'List down 5 lessons that we may learn from Joseph's life. (Genesis 37-50)'
I was thinking, ' OH SHIT. I never read till Joseph. GG.'

But the point is,
Joseph is a very good role model for me.

For those readers who are not familiar with him,

he's the 11th son of Jacob aka the man who wrestled with God(Israel).
And he's the favourite of Jacob, which incurred the jealousy of his brothers,
and they got rid of him by selling him to a slave trader.

Soon after,
he was bought by the pharaoh's officer,
Pontiphar; and he's seen as exceptionally talented among the other slaves.
So he is treated specially just as he was in his family.

However,
the official's wife tempted him into sexual temptation and although he did resist,
the former accused him of rape and was thrown into the prison for what he did not do.
But despite all of this troubles(and mind you, this is only the first part of his story),
he never once complained,

and this only shows that God is with us through ALL hardships and He is forever with us.

God really favoured Joseph.
I am envious man, and so fascinated in his life.


People, you should really watch this show. (Utube have the full set, just type the title in)
I bet that you will learn something in this 'animated biblical account'!



Amen and praise the Lord!




P.S. Thank you Lord for the amazing grace You had given us, free of charge..
