Joseph was 17 and a shepherd in Canaan when Genesis 37 records that God gave him dreams of ruling over his brothers and ruling over a large universe. When God spoke to Joseph, Joseph was not in a position to fulfill his dreams.
God often gives dreams that don't match our current reality. One of His desires is that we learn to put our ultimate trust in Him instead of our abilities or other peoples' abilities to fulfill dreams.
Through the changes of life trust God. Joseph did while going through a number of changes to go from shepherd in Canaan to governor of Egypt. Stay in communication and connection with God. God is for believers. Don't worry about Him. He always loves us. When God gives dreams, He is willing and able to make them come to pass.
