Genesis

Jacob’s youngest son was named Joseph. Jacob loved Joseph so much that he made him a coat with many bright colors. Color Joseph’s coat with your favorite colors. Joseph’s brothers were mad at him because he was given such a beautiful coat, and because Joseph told them about a dream he had while asleep one night. He dreamed that his brothers would someday bow to him. Because they were mad at Joseph, his brothers sold him to people from another country. Many years later, after going through some hard times, Joseph became ruler of this other country–and his brothers did bow before him. God had kept his promise to Joseph. And even though his brothers had been so mean to him, Joseph was not angry with them. Joseph loved them just like God loves you. God always keeps His promises to you. Thank You, God, for loving me and keeping your promises to me. Memory
Verse: " . . . for God
can be trusted to keep His promise" Remember Rhyme Joseph had a new coat Full of colors bright and bold; Joseph had a dream, And this is what it told: His brothers would bow down to him Though he was not old; But his brothers were angry with him, So it was Joseph that they sold. Off he went to another country; And his coat was taken away. He had hard times but still he knew That God was with him every day. God kept His promise to Joseph, And He keeps His promises to you. God always does exactly what He says He’s going to do. |
