The Last Coat

That very night when Joseph was elevated to that high office, and when all was said and done, he might have sat all by himself in a secluded place. In this hallowed place as he sat quietly, I believe, he would be reflecting upon the traumas he experienced in the past thirteen years. These experiences might be flooding his mind, and be playing back and forth. Joseph might have made attempts to piece these experiences together but they could not stick. They could not hold. He pondered the cruelty and fury his brothers spewed, the brutal manhandling they displayed and the foul words they churned when he pleaded for his life. His effort to persuade the Ishmaelite buyers to desist from buying him when that efforts fell on deaf ears. The false accusation by his master's wife when he was denied the chance to present his side of the story. And the cupbearer's inability to make do with his promise when he solemnly swore he would not forget Joseph's kind gesture. All conspired against Joseph yet he endured all circumstances. Joseph would have to take off three coats to make way for the last: the best and the most beautiful. It had not been easy for Joseph, but his abiding spirit and enduring strength kept him through these turbulent times. You might find yourself in similar situation. This book will help you embrace your circumstances and solemnly navigate through the raging storms.
