Hello read.cash family, how are you? I hope everyone is doing well and in good health right now. Our dear bch is still low and we are still hoping that it will pump up again very soon so it could give us a big smile in our lips.
A father who loves one more than the others
For today's article I would like to share about the story of Joseph. If you are a Christian and love reading stories from the Bible for sure you are familiar with this story. But if not, you can read it in Genesis chapter 37 verses one to eleven.
Joseph and his siblings were taking care of their flocks and Joseph is telling the bad actions of his brothers to their father. His father loves him the most compared to his other brother. It our term, Joseph is the favorite son of his father. In fact, his father make a special dress for him which is so different and colorful.
His brothers hated Joseph for this and they always speak to him rudely.
Joseph had two dreams that made his brothers hates him more. His first dream is that they were in the field binding some sheaves and his sheaves stood straight and upright while the sheaves of his brothers is bowing to his sheaves.
His brothers told him that he is thinking that he will rule over them and thought that they will bow to him.
His second dream was that the sun, moon and the eleven stars bowed down to him.
His father told him, what do you mean? Do you mean that I, your mother and eleven brothers will bow down to you?
His brothers became more angry with him while his father is thinking about his dreams.
Lessons from the story
No to favoritism
Favoritism can be found and felt everywhere. It can happen in school between teachers and students. It also happen in workplace between the boss and the employees and the most common place of favoritism is inside the home. Yes, we cannot deny the fact that favoritism do exist.
Might be you experienced favoritism, might be you are the most loved or you are the one who felt less love from your parents.
We are 6 siblings in the family but for myself I never seen my parents having a favorite son or daughter and I am happy about it.
Parents, let's love our children equally and let's not put some jealousy in their hearts and minds.
Favoritism takes away unity within the children and brings jealousy.
Learn to control emotions
If you are a child ( a son or daughter) that happens to feel jealousy over your other siblings, please control your emotions and don't let that emotions push you to do something bad and will lead to another problem within the family.
Learn to love each other
Son/daughter, love your parents unconditionally.
Parents, love your children equally.
Siblings, love one another endlessly.

Reading the stories of previous bible people, we can see the works of the Holy Spirit in them. As we can see, "He" has many characters and Joseph met many of it too. Tingin ko inuunti unti Nya yong mga tao noon ng mga mangyayari pa- when Christ came naconfirmed na even animals, stars, moon, sun nagbow sa Kanya, kagaya ng nga napaniginipan ni Joseph.
In Christ all is included as His creations.
