00:00:02.83\00:00:07.30
When my heart begins
to fear, He is my Light.
00:00:07.34\00:00:09.44
I can smile for He
is near, Jesus my Light.
00:00:09.47\00:00:14.04
When I'm blue and
feeling sad, He is my Light.
00:00:14.08\00:00:18.71
He reminds me I can
be glad, Jesus my Light.
00:00:18.75\00:00:23.39
He is the Light,
yes, Jesus my Light.
00:00:23.42\00:00:27.69
In Him is no
darkness, in Him is no night.
00:00:27.72\00:00:33.40
Wherever He leads me,
He makes my way bright.
00:00:33.43\00:00:37.43
I'll shine for
Jesus, Jesus my Light.
00:00:37.47\00:00:43.14
Hey guys, look,
it's Aunt Francine.
00:00:43.17\00:00:44.87
Hi kids. Hi! Oh this is a
wonderful day to be in the tree
00:00:44.91\00:00:50.41
house. Aren't you glad to
be here? Yes! I'm so glad to be
00:00:50.45\00:00:54.62
here. Ooops. I am so delighted
to be here and I think Ginger
00:00:54.65\00:00:59.35
is too. Oh, and we've got
to welcome our kids at home.
00:00:59.39\00:01:04.19
Welcome to Jesus my Light. I'm
Aunt Francine and this is little
00:01:04.23\00:01:08.00
Ginger. And we are going to
talk about Jesus. And this is a
00:01:08.03\00:01:12.10
really happy time so we've got
to have a lot of fun on this one
00:01:12.13\00:01:15.84
because you know what, Jesus
liked having a lot of fun. And
00:01:15.87\00:01:20.01
you know what? This was a happy
time and He did His very first
00:01:20.04\00:01:25.95
miracle. Do you know that? It
was very special because it was
00:01:25.98\00:01:29.32
supposed to be a very happy time
and you know what, I'm so glad
00:01:29.35\00:01:32.62
that Jesus was able to do some
miracles. Aren't you glad? Yeah!
00:01:32.65\00:01:37.33
I'm very glad. Hey my God is so
great. Aren't you glad He's so
00:01:37.36\00:01:43.93
great? Yeah! Yes, oh, let's sing
that song. My God Is So Great.
00:01:43.97\00:01:48.14
You ready for the music. ¤ ¤
00:01:48.17\00:01:53.14
That was wonderful. I enjoyed
that song. Thank you, Dan, that
00:02:24.24\00:02:29.34
was so wonderful. Are you...
Yes, it is fun. It's wonderful
00:02:29.38\00:02:34.78
to have fun with Jesus. Doesn't
He want us to have fun? Yes!
00:02:34.82\00:02:38.75
Yes It's fun the love Jesus and
to talk about Him everywhere we
00:02:38.79\00:02:43.26
go. So are you ready for a Bible
story today? Yeah! How about you
00:02:43.29\00:02:47.06
at home, are you ready for our
Bible story? This story is a fun
00:02:47.10\00:02:55.40
story because Jesus wanted to
do something very special and He
00:02:55.44\00:02:58.81
wanted to be there for a very
special occasion. How many of
00:02:58.84\00:03:02.81
you have been to
weddings? Do you like weddings?
00:03:02.84\00:03:04.78
Yeah, especially the cake.
00:03:04.81\00:03:07.52
I think so, Oh you like the cake
I like cake too. You know what?
00:03:07.55\00:03:11.99
Weddings are a special time but
you know also birthdays are kind
00:03:12.02\00:03:15.79
of special, aren't they? Or
especially when a baby is being
00:03:15.82\00:03:19.63
born. That is always a big
celebration. And the cake, you
00:03:19.66\00:03:22.43
always like cake, right? Okay,
I like cake and especially if it
00:03:22.46\00:03:25.83
was chocolate cake. Anyway, so
Jesus was invited to a special
00:03:25.87\00:03:30.81
wedding in Cana and so He
is walking there and I can only
00:03:30.84\00:03:35.44
imagine Mary, His mother, being
so excited that she might be
00:03:35.48\00:03:39.65
able to see Jesus. And so she's
anticipating Jesus's coming and
00:03:39.68\00:03:44.65
He's bringing His disciples and
they're coming in and they're
00:03:44.69\00:03:48.72
there and Mary kind of... Just
imaging what she might have done
00:03:48.76\00:03:54.20
She just kind of paused like,
Wow! Jesus looked so different.
00:03:54.23\00:03:58.80
Why do you think Jesus looked
different. She recognized Jesus
00:03:58.83\00:04:01.20
because of His face and His
demeanor but He looked a little
00:04:01.24\00:04:04.57
different. Why do you think?
What had happened earlier?
00:04:04.61\00:04:07.31
Because the Holy
Spirit was in Him.
00:04:07.34\00:04:08.68
The Holy Spirit was with Him but
also just beforehand, remember
00:04:08.71\00:04:12.65
when He was in the wilderness
being tempted. He was probably
00:04:12.68\00:04:15.75
feeling a little weak. He
was probably not as strong or as
00:04:15.78\00:04:19.15
physically fit. And so here
Mary's so excited to see Jesus
00:04:19.19\00:04:23.63
and I can just see Jesus
introducing the disciples and
00:04:23.66\00:04:26.86
saying oh welcome, welcome.
So I can just imagine them just
00:04:26.90\00:04:32.67
sitting down at the tables and
eating. Now, that's a fun time.
00:04:32.70\00:04:37.47
I'm imagining fig and grapes
and you know that's one thing
00:04:37.51\00:04:43.41
that's always
there...Yes Kahlil Wine.
00:04:43.45\00:04:44.78
They had wine.
00:04:44.81\00:04:46.31
And at that time it was grape
juice, right? We know it was
00:04:46.35\00:04:50.29
grape because we can tell from
the other verses in the Bible.
00:04:50.32\00:04:53.89
But you're right. We'll talk
about that a little bit later
00:04:53.92\00:04:56.22
but you're right, it was grape
juice. So it was very important
00:04:56.26\00:05:01.56
at every wedding
there would be grape
00:05:01.60\00:05:05.20
juice or wine, we call it wine,
but it was grape juice. And so
00:05:05.23\00:05:09.90
they had to make sure, because
if you didn't have enough grape
00:05:09.94\00:05:12.84
juice, it was thought that you
weren't being very respectful
00:05:12.87\00:05:16.48
and very thoughtful. So wine was
very important at the weddings,
00:05:16.51\00:05:20.45
right, and you want to make sure
you had enough. So you know the
00:05:20.48\00:05:25.05
story well. Do you know the
story? I'm sure you remember the
00:05:25.09\00:05:28.16
story well. What happened?
Do you remember what happened?
00:05:28.19\00:05:31.49
They ran out of
wine or grape juice.
00:05:31.53\00:05:34.03
They ran out of grape juice.
You're right. And so Mary who
00:05:34.06\00:05:38.00
was probably helping right
there at the feast because it
00:05:38.03\00:05:40.84
was probably one of her
relatives. She's thinking, Oh
00:05:40.87\00:05:44.54
I know who could deal with
this. I know what to do. So she
00:05:44.57\00:05:49.18
probably, I'm assuming, I'm only
imagining, she might have just
00:05:49.21\00:05:54.25
gone over next to Jesus and
thought Hmm You know what? What
00:05:54.28\00:06:01.12
do you think she might have said
00:06:01.16\00:06:02.49
Jesus, do a miracle.
00:06:02.52\00:06:04.39
I think so. I think so. I can
just see, here's one of these
00:06:04.43\00:06:10.37
servants probably. You want
to come close? Come around here,
00:06:10.40\00:06:13.64
come in close. He's coming
over here and He says what?
00:06:13.67\00:06:18.37
There's no wine. I am worried
for the family and guests.
00:06:18.41\00:06:23.08
We have run out of wine.
00:06:23.11\00:06:25.58
Jesus, they have no wine.
00:06:25.61\00:06:34.26
Dear Woman. Why come to
me? My hour has not yet come.
00:06:34.29\00:06:40.56
¤ ¤
00:06:40.60\00:06:48.90
Do whatever He tells you to do.
00:06:48.94\00:06:51.04
¤ ¤
00:06:51.07\00:07:00.78
Fill the jars with water.
00:07:00.82\00:07:02.95
¤ ¤
00:07:02.98\00:07:14.13
Now draw some out and take
it to the master of the feast.
00:07:14.16\00:07:17.10
¤ ¤
00:07:17.13\00:07:24.64
Grape juice.
00:07:24.67\00:07:26.01
¤ ¤
00:07:26.04\00:07:40.29
Bridegroom, people always serve
the best wine first. Later after
00:07:40.32\00:07:45.99
the guests have been drinking
well they serve the cheaper wine
00:07:46.03\00:07:48.83
but you have kept
the best wine till now.
00:07:48.86\00:07:55.60
¤ ¤ And so
Jesus very calmly just
00:07:55.64\00:08:00.41
walked over the servants,
I'm imagining, and said, Fill
00:08:00.44\00:08:04.81
up those six jars. And so you
can imagine...Do you know how
00:08:04.85\00:08:08.82
heavy those jars must have been?
They must have been really heavy
00:08:08.85\00:08:12.65
because they were like 30
gallons of grape juice but in
00:08:12.69\00:08:18.36
this case it was what? Water!
You know that so well. And so
00:08:18.39\00:08:22.76
here I can just imagine him
taking the jars out and they're
00:08:22.80\00:08:26.60
going to the well and they're
having to fill it up. And so
00:08:26.63\00:08:30.21
they bring them back there and
then Jesus says what? What does
00:08:30.24\00:08:34.84
Jesus tell them to do?
00:08:34.88\00:08:36.21
Take it to the person
who's in charge or the host.
00:08:36.24\00:08:40.48
Yes and He says go ahead
and give it. And I can just see
00:08:40.52\00:08:44.85
their eyes like ah, what are
you talking about. Are you sure
00:08:44.89\00:08:49.92
about that. And so yes. And
so he sends it and what happens
00:08:49.96\00:08:55.36
next?
00:08:55.40\00:08:56.73
They take it to him and
he tastes it and he says
00:08:56.77\00:08:59.00
this is the best wine.
00:08:59.03\00:09:00.50
It is the best wine and it
was wonderful. And he said, Oh
00:09:00.54\00:09:04.54
that's so sweet. You know, when
we know who Jesus is, it's so
00:09:04.57\00:09:09.58
sweet. We want more of his
love don't we? Yeah. He can do
00:09:09.61\00:09:12.78
anything in our lives no matter
what we do. Jesus wants to be
00:09:12.81\00:09:18.29
the sweetest thing in our lives.
I want Him to live for us. You
00:09:18.32\00:09:22.79
know, we talked about grape
juice, right? Did you know that
00:09:22.82\00:09:29.33
those old wine sacks, you know
the wine sacks that they use. We
00:09:29.36\00:09:33.67
don't know if it was goat skin
or what but they could even last
00:09:33.70\00:09:36.74
a whole year without
being fermented. That's kind of
00:09:36.77\00:09:40.71
interesting and we know that
Jesus on the cross didn't want
00:09:40.74\00:09:44.61
want any wine, right? So we know
that it wasn't wine but we know
00:09:44.65\00:09:50.59
that it was grape juice.
Now grape juice has some good
00:09:50.62\00:09:53.22
qualities. Oh! What's Ginger
doing with our grapes? I think
00:09:53.25\00:09:56.46
she's having fun with our craft
grapes here. She's having fun
00:09:56.49\00:10:00.13
but that's okay. You know grape
juice is really good for our
00:10:00.16\00:10:04.20
stomach and so if you have an
upset stomach sometimes they say
00:10:04.23\00:10:06.70
oh go ahead and
have some grape juice.
00:10:06.74\00:10:09.27
And if you have constipation it
can make you use the restroom.
00:10:09.30\00:10:14.48
Oh, it might help you have a
bowel movement. You're right.
00:10:14.51\00:10:15.84
So grape juice is really good
for us. So I know Jesus wanted
00:10:15.88\00:10:20.38
to talk about those things.
And you know, I'm thinking that
00:10:20.42\00:10:26.62
sometimes we don't have much to
bring to Jesus. What did He ask
00:10:26.65\00:10:30.83
them to bring? Water, right?
And yet Jesus was able to do
00:10:30.86\00:10:37.07
something very special. When we
do what Jesus wants us to do and
00:10:37.10\00:10:40.70
just follow directions, life
goes a lot smoother, don't you
00:10:40.74\00:10:45.04
think. Yes, Kahlil.
00:10:45.07\00:10:47.64
I also read the story where
Jesus fed 5000 people with five
00:10:47.68\00:10:51.01
loaves and two fishes.
00:10:51.05\00:10:53.01
You're right. Everything is
so much better when Jesus is
00:10:53.05\00:10:55.78
involved and He likes having
a big party. Don't you think so?
00:10:55.82\00:11:01.02
I love having grape juice and
you know enjoy that time, right?
00:11:01.06\00:11:06.63
Enjoy having some grape juice.
So do you think you're ready for
00:11:06.66\00:11:10.50
some questions? Yeah! How about
you at home? Are you ready for
00:11:10.53\00:11:14.30
some questions. I am going to
pull out my questions. What is a
00:11:14.34\00:11:21.01
miracle? Can it be explained
by nature and science. B - It
00:11:21.04\00:11:25.61
cannot be explained by
scientific law or nature; or, C-
00:11:25.65\00:11:30.85
A trick someone plays. What do
you think a miracle is? That's
00:11:30.89\00:11:37.39
kind of a hard one but you're
right if you said B - Cannot be
00:11:37.43\00:11:41.46
explained by science or law or
nature, you're correct. Only God
00:11:41.50\00:11:46.33
can help perform those miracles
through Jesus. So, can I do a
00:11:46.37\00:11:51.37
miracle? No. But it's God who
can do those things. So what is
00:11:51.41\00:11:56.41
the first miracle performed when
He began His ministry? Was it
00:11:56.44\00:12:01.22
A - Healing a blind man; B -
Changing water into grape juice;
00:12:01.25\00:12:06.52
or C - A boatload of fish?
B! B. I know you got that one at
00:12:06.55\00:12:12.99
home, right? And how about the
third question: Did you catch
00:12:13.03\00:12:17.50
this one? How many jars were
filled? Woo. A - Three; B - Six;
00:12:17.53\00:12:25.67
or C - Ten? What did you get?
Did you say six? You are correct
00:12:25.71\00:12:36.58
It was six jars. You know, we
can have Jesus fill our hearts
00:12:36.62\00:12:41.52
and fill our lives with a new
Spirit that is so much sweeter
00:12:41.56\00:12:45.63
than anything, we can talk
about. Aren't you willing to
00:12:45.66\00:12:48.30
share about Jesus. Yeah!. You
know what's interesting is that
00:12:48.33\00:12:53.47
Jesus went back to where He
always went. People were saying
00:12:53.50\00:12:56.81
who did this miracle, who
did this miracle? And where was
00:12:56.84\00:13:00.08
Jesus at that point? You're
right. Usually, He was gone. He
00:13:00.11\00:13:05.78
was out probably on the
mountainside. What was He doing,
00:13:05.81\00:13:08.58
again? Praying! Pray, what he
always loved to do. Talking to
00:13:08.62\00:13:13.86
His heavenly Father. And you
know that reminds me. We want to
00:13:13.89\00:13:17.26
take time to spend with God
because life is much sweeter
00:13:17.29\00:13:23.47
with Jesus. Don't you want
to have Jesus in your heart and
00:13:23.50\00:13:28.20
live for Him each day and let
your light shine for Him. I hope
00:13:28.24\00:13:32.97
you'll join us to the
next time on Jesus my Light.
