Joseph dreamed he would be A leader, a superior, a head, The one who his brothers bowed To, humbled by the fate that was his, The destiny, vibrant in hues of blessings, Rich with insight into the everlasting Peace and promise, the yearnings Brought into his young heart by the Heavenly Father, who he worshipped Joseph was a dreamer and a believer He sought the One who heals us, The One who fulfills us and inspires us To listen to His wisdom, His inklings The wonders of His kingdom, His ability to feed us with the bread of life, Quench our thirst with the living water, Brighten our thoughts with His goodness, Pour out joy through our moments, Send down hope into our darkness Joseph was never more blessed Than when He was walking the road Toward fulfilling his destiny, His purpose for living and giving Back to the One who made him, the One Who gave Him a love beyond jubilant, A love that was true and beautiful, A love that never questioned the reason For the spirit’s gift – his dream – Fulfilled, his purpose – succeeded, His light shimmering through the night, Brilliant as the stars and glowing Like the moon who had always known He would someday see the glory, The joy – in all his dreams come true, The realization of his calling – Bringing life to those who need his charms, His wisdom and truth, the miracle Brought to him by the God of the universe Joseph was a dreamer and a believer Who would one day know the peace That comes from never giving in to grief Never letting doubt discourage hope And always knowing that, with God… Anything – absolutely anything – Is possible! – so keep dreaming and Believing – time will see your dreams Changed into the reality that is your blessing From the God who gave each heart The hope, the faith – to simply believe! Genesis 37:5 KJV - And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.

Beautifully written Regina, I kept thinking any second you will make mention of his rainbow coat. It's an inspiring story. I can remember using it to teach all my kids to follow their dreams and their is nothing they cannot do if they have the will, put in the effort and and seek guidance from our Lord. Lovely poem Gina.

The story of Joseph and his brothers always fascinated me. It shows that out of an evil occurrence, good can take place.
