A place to talk and discuss about the lessons we cover in class. This blog was created for Bible 9 students of San Gabriel Academy. Feel free to join in the conversation.
That If God's in your life, you can do anything. Also that if you just persevere through whatever difficulties smack you in the face, you can rise to the top! >:D
I can show mercy, I can show love, and I can show that I have faith in God.
Joseph's life holds many lessons for us to learn. We learn that, no matter how hard life throws itself on you, you have to stay strong and never give up. God has a special plan for each living being on earth. He cares for us, and knows when we're suffering. He's always there to pick us up when we fall, and like Joseph, we have to stay strong. Everyday, we should devote ourselves fully to God. We should radiate God's love through the ways we speak and act.
I learned a lot of things from the movie. for example one of them is to forgive one another. Like if you do something wrong, just forgive. Another thing is that we should never give up. We should always keep our hopes up in things and to trust in God. If we are down in the dumps, we should turn to God and hope for the best.
There are many lessons that I learned from the life of Joseph. Do not be jealous with others, just because they are better than you. You should be improving yourself to be like them. In live, there are many difficult times that you would face, do not give up, because God always stay beside, and watching you. Do not stay home everyday, go out more often, you would learn new stuffs.
I learned that even though bad things happen to us, God has a plan for us, and He is always there. Also like Jordan said, to forgive each other. If we don't forgive each other, we are always hating and causing ourselves to be frustrated and all that. Some everyday things we can examples on how we can be like Joseph are, to keep your head up and follow God even when things look rough.
I learned that even though times are tough, instead of giving up...you should look up to the Lord, have faith in Him because He gives us strength. "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13 What we can also learn from Joseph, is to forgive. His brothers sold him into SLAVERY, and yet at the end..he forgave them. I think some examples where we can apply Joseph's character would be when we're discouraged and feel like theres not much of life anymore. We just need to look up and remember that God is always there for us and is watching us... that even if it seems like no one's there; He is always there, because He loves us. Another situation where we can be more like Joseph is when somebody wrongs you. We would either want revenge or never give that person another chance, but we should do as what Joseph did by forgiving that person(s)
Some of the lessons I learned from Joseph's life is to always have faith in God and to honor and obey Him in whatever situation. Even though we are faced with hardships we need to always remember the promise that God gives us. And that promise is the Bible verse that Jasmin (JAZZY!:D) posted --"I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13) There are many other lessons we can learn from the life of Joseph, but I'll just throw out a few. 1. We need to be who God wants us to be and listen to Him. 2. We must share what God tells us to tell others 3. We shouldn't hold grudges and envy one another. 4. It's not very fair to show favoritism among your family members or even your friends. We can make them sin and when we make them sin, we sin. ~~There are many ways we can be like Joseph...here are a few. 1. We should forgive and forget, just like Joseph did with his brothers. 2. We should have patience when we think that God can't hear our cries in our struggles (like when Joseph was in the dungeon). God can hear us and we need to trust in His timing. 3. We should lay all of our plans and desires and goals in God's hands because we don't know what tomorrow will bring...but God does...and He will give us the strength and courage to fulfill the purpose He has given us.
we need to trust in God, and try our best to overcome the obstacles in our life. we also need to be persevering when we fail to do something. we must treasure our relationship with our family or everyone.
I learned that we should learn to forgive others. In the story, although Joseph betrayed by his brother, but he finally forgive them, and his brother notice it is wrong to do that. And if somebody betrayed you, God is around you and know everything. God will protect you and guide you. We should not give up and keep our hopes, there is a way that God will help you and make your life better.
Joseph is chosen by God for a reason. God has given Joseph the ability to read the dreams, but it also led Joseph into a big trouble, he has been betraied by his brothers who sold him to slavry. There was a time that Joseph hated his brother and confused why God has chosen him but let him suffer from all those problems. But finally Joseph has realised that he shouldn't keep this attitude, so he forgave his brothers and actually his brothers were with their guilty for him all the time. Joseph's story teaches me that we shall always look at the world with our love, that will make us a happy and better life. God chose us to be his people not only because He created us, but also because He loves us.
I learn a lot. First,we should keep our brief whenever we face the difficulties. We should always believe that God stands by us all the time. Second,we can't be jealous of anyone,we should try our best to make progress instead. Third,sometimes we also should learn to forgive the mistakes.It will be benefit to both others and ourselves. I never give up when facing troubles and get along well with my parents，relatives and my classmates.
NOTE* THIS IS FROM KRISTIAN KIDD*************** I HAVE NO CLUE WHY HE'S ASKING ME TO DO THIS WHEN HIS INTERNET IS FINE, BUT W/E***************
"I learned that God chooses otherwise ordinary people to have great gifts or do great things and Joseph was one such person. I feel I can be more like Joseph by praying and reading my bible and seeing what God's purpose is for me"
- Kristian Kidd ******** I HAVE DONE A GOOD DEED GIVE ME EXTRA CREDIT! xD********* *ALL FROM KK*
The lessons that I learned from Joseph's life is stay faithful to God. Even though all these bad things were happening to him he still loved God. He could have just of blamed God for the bad things and never have talk to God ever again. Second is give glory to God Joseph had many moments were people thought it was all him, but no he gave credit to God. And lastly Joseph forgave his brothers in other word don't hold grudges on anyone especially your family. Joseph is one of the many people that I admire from the bible he went all though those things and yet he still stayed loyal to God.
Joseph is a chosen person, so God planed for him special things to overcome. I learned that sometimes we have to face some hardships and these hardships may be special things that God plan for us. For example, we believe in God, but some people make fun of us about that and they said our God is unreal. If we just keep our faith and never turn away from God, we will have the gift from God in His special plan for us.
God's bless is priority, don't feel jealous with the person that is chosen by God. God always chooses someone that has a big heart, like Joseph forgave for the brothers who had betrayed him. God's will is a world with people love each other. I try to be friendly to everyone, do things as God's will.
I learned to forgive those who've hurt you in some way. Joseph forgave his brothers even though they sold him into slavery. Also, a lesson I've learned from Joseph's life is to keep trusting God. Things may seem bad at the moment, but if we believe and have faith in God, He can help us through anything. How I can be like Joseph in everyday life? i think just living life by being a good person, always trusting in God, and just living positively is sorta what i can apply from this story.
God is fair to everybody. Joseph was chosen by God, God wants to test him. We all need to learn how to forgive the other and do not complain the others or judge the others. We have to put our heats on God. Do not test God, God knows everything in our heart. When the first time I couldn't make the basketball team, I thought God doesn't want me to join it. But God was testing me how much do I wanted to make this team. I still practice hard and tried to make the team. Finally, God answer me and let me make the team. We have to trusting God, everything He does for us, He knows how it is and how it's gonna be.
God have planed your life, that my uncle always said to me. i know like Joseph, who get some gifts from God. he can dream in the future. Joseph's power that we never could have. however, God hope you can find your own GIFT. in the movie, Joseph forgive his brothers. in the reality life, we can try to be forgiveness or pardon for your men around us. this is kind of Joseph's happeiness.
Sometimes in life,we have to go through hardships to gain happiness. Sometimes God lets things happen in our lives that we can't understand at that moment.but in the ends,God wants us to be happy and he can give that to us if we remain faithful to him. Joseph was a man that remained faithful to God through both his hardships and happiness.no matter what he feels inside, he always remained to have a character that stood out from the crowd. Joseph was also a very forgiving man.the fact they he forgave his brothers for selling him to slavery means that he must really live and care for his brothers even through hard times. We could be more like Joseph everyday by always staying faithful to God, whether our day is good or bad.we can also learn to forgive others and always be nice to them whether there being mean to you or nice to you.
From the life of Joseph, I learned that God knows best. God knows what He is doing. Things happen for a reason. Even though Joseph was betrayed by his brothers and sent to jail by Potiphar, he learned to forgive his brothers for selling him to slavery. Also, he learned to accept that he was a messenger for God, and his purpose in life was to help people and to tell them God’s words. Through the obstacles and trials we will meet in our lives, we have the opportunity to become better people and to learn from these experiences. We can be more like Joseph by learning to forgive, helping people, and continue to believe in God.
What i learned from this moive is that we should keep our hope and trust God that he never leaves us. For example, we may encounter hardship. At first, we will persist. But, next time, many people would chose give up. We should learn from Joseph. No matter what harsh circustances we face, we believe in God and trust ourselves to conquer the difficulties. Bill Wang
Joseph's life teaches us a very important lesson. God has a plan for all of us. If we have faith in Him, He will do great things for us. We can be more like Joseph if we do everything to our fullest. Do not cut corners.
That we shouldn't lose hope that God gave up on us. Even if we're going through a rough time, God is still watching us and he still has a special plan for us. God will always be there for all of us. We can first start being faithful to God everyday. We can pray and worship when we're not even in trouble or when we need strength. God will help us throughout the way.
God has a plan for everyone, even if I don't know where the plan will lead me to. I will face many trails and if i 'pass' the trail, god will continue to led me in the path He has chosen for me. If I am more in tone with God, i will have a better understanding of where the his plan is leading me. I can take everyday was a step in His plan for me.
I favor this story in the Bible over many others because of Joseph's actions. He was very humble, and he trusted in God even at times when it seemed nothing was right. He had faith in God, and Joseph is our example in this story. God teaches us how and when and why we should trust Him. "Be still and know that I am God" Psalm 46:10 We can be more like Joseph by being patient when others annoy us, and to take every insult people throw at us, especially at times when we are the angriest.
I learned a lot from Joseph. Life is hard. Different people have their different lives. Someone's life may be easy and comfortable. Someone's may be tough and hard. What we can do is to stay where we are. Never give up. Joseph didn't give up anything, so he made his life greatly. He has many tough time in his early life. But he knew that God is always taking care of him. God is watching every single of us. He will always help people who is in trouble. He has a special plan for each of us. God is loving God.
I learned that God is fair, no matter how hard the life is, we should keep going and never give up. We can earn experience from the hard life and try to make it better. I think God has plan to everyone, if you have hard life that might God want to test to and He want you stay strong and do not give up everything, and try to make your life better by yourself.
God is fair to everybody. We learn how to forgive the other and do not complain the others or judge the others from Joseph. And our life depends on ourselves,do not give up.We also should believe God will always be with us.He will help us when we are in trouble
There are many lessons I can learn from Joseph, but I think the best thing I can learn is forgive, he forgive his brothers and bring them to Egypt even though they betrayed he 20 years ago. We should forgive everyone that has do something bad to us, that way we can be more like Joseph.
Joseph has a lot of good things that I need to learn. He dosen't give up for every things, even to be a slave in egypt. He loves his parents, his brothers, even they sell him to be a slave. He is very smart for every thing. Although he was a slave in egypt, he still how to get respectful from other people.
From the example of Joseph, God gave him many different challenges in his life after he was betrayed by his brothers. Although his life was harder than others, he never gave up in difficult situations, and he kept his beliefs in mind. Because of this, I learn whenever we meet difficulties, we should remember the example of Joseph and we would not be alone by ourselves.
After watching the movie about Joseph and his life. I learned that Joseph was the one who followed God's plan, he obeyed God. We just need to follow God's plan step by step. In the beginning of the movie, his brothers betrayed Joseph, however, God's plan did not stop, everything he suffered was God's plan. Joseph was the one who listened to God. He prayed for God and asked God, but he never gave up his relationship with God. Finally he became the leader of Egypt, all this things were given by God. So I realized that God has a plan for everyone, we just need to follow God's plan.
That If God's in your life, you can do anything. Also that if you just persevere through whatever difficulties smack you in the face, you can rise to the top! >:D
