Based on the story of Joseph in the Old Testament from the Bible in a modernized world, Joseph receives a colorful jacket as a birthday present from his father. His brother and sister in law are jealous. So, they find ways to get rid of Joseph. Finally, they successed.
Behind the colorful jacket, it reveals that life is full of ups and downs. When you are on the peak, don’t be overcontented because unexpected events can happen and wipe away everything you have. On the other hand, when you are in the bottom of the valley, don’t be despaired. Just prepare for the next coming wave to push you up again.
In addition, does love or hate last forever? Should we hold the pricinple of “a tooth for a tooth”? Can love overcome hate? In Matthew 5:38, Jesus showed us how to use love to treat those who are evil. Especially, in verse 44, Jesus said “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you”. Also, in 1 Corinthians 13, it states that love is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Therefore, we need to learn how to use love to overcome hate.
