“Here comes that master dreamer! Let us kill him then see what comes of his dreams.” These words of Joseph’s brothers always make me think of Dr. King. It is easier to kill the dreamer than it is to kill the dream! Whenever we hear about someone killing another, we wonder how it could happen. “He must have been sick. He must have been crazy.” But did you notice the way the story about Joseph begins: “His brothers hated him so much that they would not even greet him.” That’s how becoming capable of killing someone starts — not speaking to someone, snubbing them, ignoring them, making fun of them. In our prayer today let’s repent of all those even petty ways we mistreat others.
