Book of Genesis, 38-
________________


I found myself asking why God did he choose Joseph instead of his brother Abel the firstborn?
I realize that it was God's way from the beginning to choose the least and excite them.
if you look at the story of Jacob and Esau. God choose Jacob but he was the last born, but God chose him because he was a good shepherd. If we look at the story of Abel and Cain, Abel was a Shepherd and God chooses Abel. God choose Devid among his brothers because he was a Shepherd also. A shepherd is someone who took care of his ships. God chose Joseph because he was ahead of the ship he chose him because of his work. God looks at the heart, not at the strength of a man. Joseph's brothers hated him because of his dreams and the potential which they saw in him. you might see yourself in this situation today some other people hate you without reason you may not know the reason but there is a reason behind it because you are blessed. you are the light of the world, so never put off your light because others are telling you to do so. Some other people underrate you but keep on doing what you are doing.

God will reward you, yes the way is not easy but you will win at the end like Joseph. you may go through fire and water but God is with you he strengthens Joseph and his brothers come and worship him. so today don't be discouraged because of the situation, friends, or family just know that as long God Is On Your Side no one will be against you.
