When my heart begins to fear,
00:00:05.83\00:00:08.07
He is my light.
00:00:08.10\00:00:10.51
I can smile for He is near,
00:00:10.54\00:00:12.71
Jesus my light.
00:00:12.74\00:00:15.08
When I am blue, and feeling sad
00:00:15.11\00:00:17.35
He is my light.
00:00:17.38\00:00:19.68
He reminds me I can be glad,
00:00:19.71\00:00:21.92
Jesus my Light.
00:00:21.95\00:00:24.29
He is the Light,
00:00:24.32\00:00:26.32
Jesus my Light.
00:00:26.35\00:00:28.62
In Him is no darkness,
00:00:28.66\00:00:30.96
In Him is no night.
00:00:30.99\00:00:33.23
Where ever He leads
me, He makes my way bright.
00:00:33.26\00:00:38.10
I'll shine for Jesus,
00:00:38.13\00:00:40.34
Jesus my light.
00:00:40.37\00:00:44.47
Look, here comes Aunt Francine.
00:00:44.51\00:00:46.51
Hi, kid, how are you?
00:00:46.54\00:00:48.58
I'm so glad. Thank
you for doing that.
00:00:48.61\00:00:50.98
I'm so glad to join
you in the tree house.
00:00:51.01\00:00:53.18
Are you having fun? Yes.
00:00:53.21\00:00:55.28
Whoa, I'm so glad.
00:00:55.32\00:00:56.89
I hope that you're
having fun at home.
00:00:56.92\00:00:58.79
Would you like to join us?
00:00:58.82\00:01:00.66
We want to welcome
you to Jesus My Light.
00:01:00.69\00:01:02.96
I'm Aunt Francine,
00:01:02.99\00:01:04.33
and we are going to
learn more about Jesus.
00:01:04.36\00:01:07.00
Even when He was a child,
He wanted to be very helpful.
00:01:07.03\00:01:10.27
What kind of things do
you like to do at home?
00:01:10.30\00:01:12.20
Well, I like to
play with my Legos.
00:01:12.23\00:01:16.20
I like to help my mom.
00:01:16.24\00:01:18.57
How about you, Khalil?
00:01:18.61\00:01:20.58
I like to help my mom too
00:01:20.61\00:01:23.11
sometimes but...
00:01:23.14\00:01:24.61
What do you help?
00:01:24.65\00:01:25.98
Do you have to
help set this table
00:01:26.01\00:01:27.35
or anything like that?
00:01:27.42\00:01:28.75
Sometimes to set the table,
00:01:28.78\00:01:30.82
and I sometimes do
the dishes with her.
00:01:30.89\00:01:33.02
Do the dishes. Now
that is very helpful.
00:01:33.05\00:01:35.19
You know, cleaning up
after dishes is a big deal
00:01:35.22\00:01:38.49
because I like it
when I get some help
00:01:38.53\00:01:40.43
cleaning up when I make a mess.
00:01:40.50\00:01:41.83
But step by step,
00:01:41.86\00:01:43.90
Jesus was learning
to follow God's will.
00:01:43.97\00:01:46.97
Do you like making
steps to follow Jesus?
00:01:47.04\00:01:49.04
Yes.
00:01:49.07\00:01:50.41
That reminds me
of a song and I'm...
00:01:50.44\00:01:51.77
Ben, I'm so glad
you're here. Yeah.
00:01:51.81\00:01:53.41
Hey, can we sing
this song step by step?
00:01:53.48\00:01:57.25
Let's try it?
00:01:57.28\00:01:58.61
Oh God, You are my God
00:02:02.58\00:02:06.79
And I will ever praise You
00:02:06.86\00:02:10.76
Oh God, You are my God
00:02:10.83\00:02:14.70
And I will ever praise You
00:02:14.73\00:02:18.70
I will seek You in the morning
00:02:18.73\00:02:22.77
And I will learn
to walk in Your ways
00:02:22.80\00:02:26.98
And step by step You'll lead me
00:02:27.01\00:02:30.75
And I will follow
You all of my days
00:02:30.78\00:02:35.68
Oh, thank you for
singing that song with me.
00:02:35.72\00:02:38.49
I really like that song
because each step we take,
00:02:38.52\00:02:41.99
we can walk closer to
Jesus, don't you think?
00:02:42.02\00:02:44.69
Yeah.
00:02:44.73\00:02:46.06
Thank you for
joining us. You're welcome.
00:02:46.09\00:02:47.93
So are you ready
00:02:47.96\00:02:49.30
for the next
part of our program,
00:02:49.33\00:02:51.80
the story time?
00:02:51.83\00:02:53.17
Yeah. Yeah!
00:02:53.20\00:02:55.44
Let's go.
00:02:55.47\00:02:56.81
So you know where Jesus
moved to with His family
00:02:59.17\00:03:03.45
after they left Jerusalem?
00:03:03.48\00:03:06.01
Where did they go to? To Egypt.
00:03:06.05\00:03:07.72
You're right, Egypt.
00:03:07.75\00:03:09.08
And do you know
how far Egypt is?
00:03:09.12\00:03:10.69
Four hundred miles.
00:03:10.72\00:03:12.05
How did you know?
00:03:12.09\00:03:14.06
You're right, it was 400 miles.
00:03:14.09\00:03:15.96
Now that must
have taken a long trip.
00:03:15.99\00:03:17.69
But you know what?
00:03:17.73\00:03:19.06
They were traveling
probably by the sea.
00:03:19.09\00:03:22.00
And why do you think
they wanted to go to Egypt?
00:03:22.03\00:03:24.33
What was happening?
00:03:24.37\00:03:25.70
Somebody was the ruler there.
00:03:25.73\00:03:27.07
Who was the ruler
there? King Herod.
00:03:27.14\00:03:29.07
King Herod. And what
did he want to do to?
00:03:29.10\00:03:31.57
Kill Jesus.
00:03:31.61\00:03:32.94
He wanted to kill baby Jesus
00:03:32.97\00:03:35.34
because he didn't want
anybody else to be the king.
00:03:35.38\00:03:37.91
That is so sad.
00:03:37.95\00:03:39.45
They didn't want Him to be king.
00:03:39.48\00:03:41.45
And so Jesus was, what happened?
00:03:41.48\00:03:44.22
We know the story,
00:03:44.29\00:03:45.62
Joseph didn't
even wait until morning
00:03:45.65\00:03:48.22
to pack up all his
things and leave for Egypt.
00:03:48.26\00:03:51.26
And so they traveled 400 miles.
00:03:51.29\00:03:53.50
Can you imagine
walking 400 miles?
00:03:53.53\00:03:55.23
No. That's pretty far.
00:03:55.26\00:03:57.10
You're right.
That is pretty hard.
00:03:57.17\00:03:58.87
And so, you know what?
00:03:58.90\00:04:00.24
They didn't even go
back home to Nazareth.
00:04:00.27\00:04:01.97
They had to go and flee.
00:04:02.00\00:04:04.37
So they left everything behind.
00:04:04.41\00:04:06.14
And there they
started their new home
00:04:06.17\00:04:08.18
and maybe the
wise men gave gifts
00:04:08.21\00:04:11.18
that would help them
establish the new home.
00:04:11.21\00:04:12.91
But you know, when
Jesus was a small boy,
00:04:12.95\00:04:15.42
God had chosen Mary and
Joseph to be her parents.
00:04:15.45\00:04:19.09
And I'm so glad for that.
00:04:19.12\00:04:20.46
Because you know what
happened, is that they realized
00:04:20.49\00:04:23.09
that it had to be God
00:04:23.12\00:04:24.83
that was leading
Jesus step by step.
00:04:24.86\00:04:27.76
And Jesus was small boy,
00:04:27.80\00:04:29.13
and even when He was
like two or three years old,
00:04:29.16\00:04:32.60
you know what He was doing?
00:04:32.63\00:04:33.97
He was trying to be helpful.
00:04:34.04\00:04:35.37
How many of you
have tried being helpful
00:04:35.40\00:04:36.91
at two and three?
00:04:36.94\00:04:38.27
Yeah, that's how
hard a task, isn't it?
00:04:38.31\00:04:39.64
Yeah, 'cause you are young.
00:04:39.67\00:04:41.01
You're pretty young,
00:04:41.04\00:04:42.38
but He wanted
to be very helpful.
00:04:42.41\00:04:44.75
Do you like helping too?
00:04:44.78\00:04:46.72
Sometimes? I hope so.
00:04:46.75\00:04:48.15
Because you know what?
00:04:48.18\00:04:49.52
He even then, He wanted to help.
00:04:49.55\00:04:51.69
And the big task back
then was to make bread.
00:04:51.72\00:04:56.46
How many of you
have ever made bread?
00:04:56.49\00:04:57.89
Do you like making bread?
00:04:57.93\00:04:59.26
I like making bread.
How about you at home?
00:04:59.29\00:05:01.23
Every Sunday, I
make bread for the week.
00:05:01.26\00:05:04.27
And it takes a
little bit of time.
00:05:04.30\00:05:05.63
And I put
everything in my ingredients,
00:05:05.67\00:05:08.04
and I put it in
my bread machine.
00:05:08.07\00:05:09.80
And I hit the
button, and it starts up.
00:05:09.84\00:05:11.97
But back then, do you think
00:05:12.01\00:05:13.38
they had a bread
machine like I do?
00:05:13.41\00:05:15.11
No. No.
00:05:15.14\00:05:17.38
They had to do
with the wheat, right?
00:05:17.45\00:05:19.71
And you know what?
00:05:19.75\00:05:21.08
I have a basket right there,
would you kindly, Roselynn,
00:05:21.12\00:05:24.02
can you get me
that basket right there?
00:05:24.09\00:05:25.92
There's a little
basket right there.
00:05:25.95\00:05:27.72
And I have some
wheat berries in there.
00:05:27.76\00:05:31.46
Thank you.
00:05:31.49\00:05:32.83
There were some wheat berries.
00:05:32.86\00:05:34.20
And so they would have time,
oh, she thinks it's a treat.
00:05:34.23\00:05:37.93
But they would be
wheat berries like these.
00:05:37.97\00:05:40.67
And they would grab them,
00:05:40.74\00:05:42.80
and then they would
try to grind them up.
00:05:42.84\00:05:45.67
And that's kind
of a hard task to do.
00:05:45.71\00:05:48.24
And they would grind them up.
00:05:48.28\00:05:50.05
Aleigha, would you like to try?
00:05:50.08\00:05:51.91
Smash it.
00:05:51.95\00:05:53.72
That's kind of hard, right?
00:05:53.75\00:05:55.45
It takes some work.
00:05:55.48\00:05:56.82
And this is, but
that's what they had to do.
00:05:56.89\00:05:58.85
They had to grind it up.
00:05:58.89\00:06:00.36
And then they
would have the flour.
00:06:00.39\00:06:03.06
Now, back then it took
at least three to four hours
00:06:03.09\00:06:06.53
from the time that
you already had your flour
00:06:06.56\00:06:09.46
to make the bread.
00:06:09.50\00:06:10.87
They had special ovens.
00:06:10.90\00:06:12.23
And I can just imagine
what it was like for Jesus.
00:06:12.27\00:06:16.17
Wouldn't you like to
see what it was like?
00:06:16.20\00:06:18.34
And let's see if we
can open up a picture book
00:06:18.37\00:06:23.45
and have a look inside
what Jesus might have done.
00:06:23.48\00:06:28.72
Let's see.
00:06:28.75\00:06:30.09
Would you like to
see some pictures?
00:06:30.12\00:06:31.99
I would like to see
little Jesus right here.
00:06:32.02\00:06:36.73
And see, He
would follow examples.
00:06:36.76\00:06:38.89
Do you see Him helping His mom
00:06:38.93\00:06:40.73
smash the wheat
berries right here.
00:06:40.80\00:06:43.77
And then they would smash it.
00:06:43.80\00:06:45.63
And even before they
could make the bread,
00:06:45.67\00:06:47.94
they had to separate the chaff
00:06:47.97\00:06:51.24
and so they would have
to throw it up in the air
00:06:51.27\00:06:53.41
and let the wind blow it.
00:06:53.48\00:06:56.24
That's interesting.
00:06:56.28\00:06:57.65
I wonder what it had been like.
00:06:57.68\00:07:01.05
Wouldn't you like to see that?
00:07:01.08\00:07:02.42
That's a good little helper.
00:07:13.09\00:07:14.43
Thank you, Jesus.
00:07:14.46\00:07:15.80
You see, after
we gather the wheat,
00:07:15.83\00:07:18.00
we have to
separate it from the chaff.
00:07:18.03\00:07:20.14
Now, let's try
winnowing the wheat.
00:07:20.17\00:07:22.37
Can you help me
put some in here?
00:07:22.40\00:07:24.01
He's praying and
then He's ready to eat it.
00:08:30.84\00:08:33.98
Oh, I would have loved to
be there with little Jesus.
00:08:34.01\00:08:37.48
He was so very helpful.
00:08:37.55\00:08:40.35
And do you know what it's called
00:08:40.42\00:08:41.75
when they throw the
wheat up in the air?
00:08:41.78\00:08:45.72
Winnowing.
Winnowing, you're right.
00:08:45.75\00:08:47.39
It is called winnowing.
00:08:47.46\00:08:49.36
And then they would...
It was important to do that.
00:08:49.39\00:08:52.29
And you know, it
reminds me sometimes,
00:08:52.33\00:08:54.93
Jesus had some brothers.
00:08:54.96\00:08:56.87
Were they always nice to Him?
00:08:56.90\00:08:58.37
No.
00:08:58.40\00:08:59.73
How did you know He
had some older brothers?
00:08:59.77\00:09:01.60
Can you sit down?
00:09:01.64\00:09:02.97
But you know what?
00:09:03.00\00:09:04.34
He had to make
some careful choices.
00:09:04.37\00:09:06.21
And I'm sure Mary said,
00:09:06.24\00:09:08.04
had a little talk
and said, "You know what?
00:09:08.08\00:09:10.08
It's okay that your
brothers are playing.
00:09:10.15\00:09:12.45
You can be here and I'm so
glad that you're helping me
00:09:12.48\00:09:15.75
do different
things with the chores
00:09:15.78\00:09:17.42
and making bread for example."
00:09:17.49\00:09:19.29
How many times do your parents
00:09:19.32\00:09:20.69
have to remind
you to set the table?
00:09:20.76\00:09:22.82
Many. Many times.
00:09:22.86\00:09:24.99
So you know what?
00:09:25.03\00:09:26.36
Sometimes it's
important to be helpful
00:09:26.39\00:09:28.36
without having
to be asked, right?
00:09:28.40\00:09:30.57
Yeah.
00:09:30.60\00:09:31.93
Yeah, He wanted us,
00:09:31.97\00:09:33.30
He wants, our parents
want us to be helpful.
00:09:33.34\00:09:35.87
And you know what?
00:09:35.90\00:09:37.24
There is a
Commandment that has a promise.
00:09:37.31\00:09:40.68
Do you know what
Commandment has a promise in it?
00:09:40.71\00:09:44.38
The Fifth Commandment.
00:09:44.41\00:09:45.75
Oh, what, which is what, Khalil?
00:09:45.78\00:09:48.05
"Honor your
father and your mother,
00:09:48.08\00:09:49.42
that the days will
be long upon the land
00:09:49.45\00:09:50.99
which the Lord
thy God giveth thee."
00:09:51.02\00:09:52.69
You're right.
00:09:52.72\00:09:54.06
So God has a promise
00:09:54.09\00:09:55.49
that if we honor our
parents and respect them,
00:09:55.52\00:09:58.69
we will live a long time.
00:09:58.73\00:10:00.10
And so by helping them
and being very helpful,
00:10:00.13\00:10:02.93
that is what we can do
to grow in favor with God.
00:10:02.96\00:10:06.27
But not only are you
growing in favor with God,
00:10:06.30\00:10:08.44
who are you going with as well?
00:10:08.47\00:10:10.21
Your parents. You're right.
00:10:10.24\00:10:13.01
So you know what?
Here is some stories.
00:10:13.04\00:10:16.95
I'd like to show
you some pictures.
00:10:16.98\00:10:20.65
So here is where
Jesus had to travel
00:10:20.72\00:10:24.92
from Jerusalem, you see
they were from Bethlehem
00:10:24.95\00:10:28.49
and then Jerusalem,
00:10:28.52\00:10:30.03
and then they
probably went here to Egypt.
00:10:30.06\00:10:33.13
Now, Egypt was
a beautiful place.
00:10:33.16\00:10:36.13
And it had lots of rich places,
00:10:36.16\00:10:38.63
it was known to
be a very dry place,
00:10:38.67\00:10:40.94
but it became a very rich place.
00:10:40.97\00:10:42.77
And that's where
people wanted to dwell.
00:10:42.80\00:10:44.31
So during the Bible times,
00:10:49.48\00:10:51.61
how long did it
take them to make bread?
00:10:51.65\00:10:53.52
Was it A, one to two hours?
00:10:53.55\00:10:57.39
B, three to four hours?
00:10:57.42\00:10:59.79
Or C, pretty much all
day like six to eight hours?
00:10:59.82\00:11:03.06
B.
00:11:03.09\00:11:04.46
B, three to four
hours. You're right.
00:11:04.49\00:11:07.20
How about?
00:11:07.23\00:11:08.76
What type of
grain was often used
00:11:08.80\00:11:11.70
in the Bible times?
00:11:11.73\00:11:13.07
Was it,
00:11:13.10\00:11:15.70
let's see, barley and wheat?
00:11:15.74\00:11:19.31
Or oats and rice?
00:11:19.34\00:11:22.18
Or was it corn and rye?
00:11:22.21\00:11:26.82
A.
00:11:26.85\00:11:28.18
A, barley and
wheat. You're right.
00:11:28.22\00:11:31.05
What is it called
when we use the wind
00:11:31.09\00:11:33.96
to separate the
wheat from the chaff?
00:11:33.99\00:11:37.23
Winnowing.
00:11:37.26\00:11:38.83
Okay, hold on, was
it catching the wind,
00:11:38.86\00:11:43.57
chasing or winnowing?
00:11:43.60\00:11:45.67
What was it? Winnowing.
00:11:45.70\00:11:47.14
Winnowing.
00:11:47.17\00:11:48.67
You already know,
I know you at home
00:11:48.70\00:11:50.71
already knew the answer.
00:11:50.74\00:11:52.41
So you know what?
00:11:52.44\00:11:53.78
Let's go get our craft.
00:11:53.81\00:11:55.14
Are you ready to make a craft?
00:11:55.18\00:11:56.51
Yes. Yes, go get it.
00:11:56.54\00:11:58.01
Let's go get it, Khalil.
00:11:58.05\00:12:00.15
So no matter what your age
or how young or old you are,
00:12:00.22\00:12:04.29
we can always make a
habit of being helpful
00:12:04.32\00:12:06.96
like these
little helpful lilies.
00:12:06.99\00:12:09.19
Jesus wanted to be helpful.
00:12:09.22\00:12:10.63
Do you like to
be helpful at home?
00:12:10.66\00:12:11.99
I hope so.
00:12:12.03\00:12:13.40
So remember, when your
mom ask you to do something,
00:12:13.43\00:12:15.93
I hope she
doesn't have to ask you
00:12:15.96\00:12:17.57
two or three times
00:12:17.60\00:12:19.17
or even remind
you to set the table.
00:12:19.20\00:12:21.47
So let's get out some crafts.
00:12:21.50\00:12:23.61
And here's a straw for you.
00:12:23.64\00:12:27.21
And Roselynn and Aleigha,
00:12:27.28\00:12:30.75
here is a couple
more and Ricardo.
00:12:30.78\00:12:33.62
All right, so you know
what you get to do on this one,
00:12:33.65\00:12:36.15
is you get to trace your hand.
00:12:36.18\00:12:39.25
So who wants purple?
00:12:39.29\00:12:41.19
Who wants pink?
00:12:41.22\00:12:44.23
Oh, girls like pink?
00:12:44.26\00:12:45.59
Let's get some colors
out and let's have fun.
00:12:45.63\00:12:51.07
Yes.
00:12:51.10\00:12:52.43
What color do you
see? Do you see it?
00:12:55.97\00:12:57.77
So you can go ahead and
start tracing your hand.
00:12:57.81\00:13:01.71
Yeah, and you want green?
00:13:01.74\00:13:05.01
Okay.
00:13:05.05\00:13:06.38
Oops. Let's see
if we have green.
00:13:06.41\00:13:07.85
Okay.
00:13:07.88\00:13:09.22
No matter how
negative people are,
00:13:09.25\00:13:11.25
what can we always remember?
00:13:11.29\00:13:14.19
We can always shine for Jesus
and be very helpful, can't we?
00:13:14.26\00:13:17.66
At every situation, we
can, you be helpful at home.
00:13:17.69\00:13:21.46
Where else can we be helpful?
00:13:21.50\00:13:22.83
Do any of you go to school? Yes.
00:13:22.86\00:13:24.87
Yeah, we can be
helpful at school.
00:13:24.90\00:13:26.94
Well, you live for Jesus today.
00:13:26.97\00:13:28.64
I hope you will
want to learn for Jesus.
00:13:28.67\00:13:31.24
