00:03 It's time to share there's a world out there,
00:07 looking for a friend like Jesus. 00:10 It's time to share there's a world out there, 00:13 let's tell them that He loves us so. 00:17 Let's tell them that He loves us so. 00:20 Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time. 00:25 Hi, boys and girls. 00:27 How do you like my knitting? 00:29 They are soft and warm and wooly. 00:31 And in the winter they keep my fingers cozy 00:33 even in the coldest temperatures. 00:35 But, before I wore these knittings, 00:37 the wool covered a sheep. 00:39 Yes, a sheep. 00:41 Have you ever been so close to a sheep 00:43 that you can stick to your fingers deep into its wool. 00:46 That was soft and deep and thick. 00:49 And it feels a little oily too. 00:51 You know, Jesus once compared people to sheep 00:54 and children to lambs. 00:55 And He called Himself the Good Shepherd. 00:58 I like the idea of Jesus being my shepherd. 01:01 And just as a shepherd grows wool 01:03 that is used to keep people warm, 01:04 I think Jesus wants us to offer Him 01:07 our very best and ask Him, to use it to comfort others. 01:11 A sheep has only wool to offer, 01:13 but we can give of our talents in our minds in our voices 01:17 in our hands and I guess our feet too. 01:20 And when we do, we'll feel suddenly light and happy 01:23 and carefree as a sheep 01:25 who has just lost his heavy wooly coat. 01:28 Ranger Jim is going to tell us now about a sheep 01:31 with a very funny name, 'Shortcake.' 01:41 Hi, boys and girls. 01:42 Ranger Jim here, I have a new friend. 01:44 I like to introduce to you, her name is Tiffany, 01:47 and Tiffany has a friend with her and it's a sheep. 01:50 What's its name? 'Shortcake.' 01:52 Why did you call it 'Shortcake.' 01:54 Because she has very short legs. 01:56 Is this a special breed of sheep 01:58 or just a regular breed? 01:59 A special breed, it's in old English south-town. 02:04 Well, do you share the sheep for wool? 02:06 Well, yes, once a year we share them 02:09 and it's not painful to them at all. 02:13 Well, it appears to be a very beautiful, 02:14 well mannered creature. 02:16 Do you ever show or do you plan to show this 02:18 in any of the shows? 02:19 Yes, I'll show her. 02:20 You show her forage exhibits and things of that nature. Yes. 02:24 How do they rate a sheep like this? 02:26 Well, they would, first like make you walk around the ring 02:31 and then they would check to see 02:33 how it stands and stuff like that. 02:36 And there you go, of course could tell 02:37 that it was well cared for, 02:40 and well disciplined and well trained. 02:43 In the background we have many other sheep, 02:45 are these sheep of the same breed? 02:46 No, they are not 02:49 I understand that in the background 02:51 of these sheep somewhere, that we had a fellow, 02:54 a buck that jumped over the fence 02:56 and she is one of the results of that, is that true. 02:58 Yes, he jumped over the fence 03:00 in the night and breed 20 sheep. 03:04 And so then she has the short legs 03:06 as a result of that because that buck has short legs 03:10 and that's something that you didn't want to hear 03:11 on this sheep farm. 03:12 Yes. 03:14 Well, if -- this sheep is how old now. 03:17 Two years. 03:18 Two years and we would expect them to live 12 or 15 years. 03:21 Yes, 12. 03:22 So she has a good long life ahead of her. 03:26 Very significant in the Bible is it not about sheep. 03:30 We find many places where Jesus is portrayed 03:33 as a Good Shepherd. 03:35 And we find where Jesus spoke so tenderly 03:37 of the sheep not only the lambs. 03:39 But He spoke tenderly of the old sheep of a flock. 03:43 And I know a little bit about shepherds 03:44 and I know that the shepherds that I know 03:46 treat very tenderly the old sheep of the flock. 03:51 They find the best grass, they find the best protection 03:55 for the older sheep and the younger sheep. 03:57 I think one of the more tender things in the Bible 04:00 about Jesus going out and looking for the lost sheep 04:02 and when He finally found that sheep 04:05 after leaving all the rest of the sheep in the flock. 04:08 He found that sheep that got lost was caught in the rocks. 04:11 And He picked that sheep up and put it across the back 04:13 His shoulders and cared it back for its tender protection. 04:17 I've also learned that in the shelter 04:20 where the shepherd takes a sheep at night 04:23 he places there all that safety 04:25 and the one opening leading in there, 04:27 that's where the shepherd stays. 04:30 Any beast of any kind coming in to molest the sheep 04:34 has to go over his body 04:35 and the shepherd willingly risks his life 04:39 in the defense of the sheep. 04:41 So there are just a wonderful, wonderful number of things 04:45 that we can think of in the Bible that refer to sheep. 04:48 And I think of one of the more touching things 04:50 that people had to do in those days 04:52 for the forgiveness of sin 04:54 they had to bring a beautiful lamb like this. 04:58 A beautiful sheep because they had sinned 05:01 and they had to, with a priest there in the presence, 05:04 they had to take a knife and kill this innocent lamb. 05:09 What a tragedy that to our history 05:12 millions of these lambs were sacrificed 05:14 because of the sins of men. 05:16 I am so glad that Jesus opened a new and living way 05:19 that we're told about in the New Testament. 05:21 That one sacrifice for all mankind 05:25 for all time is all that is necessary. 05:28 No longer do we need to sacrifice 05:30 a beautiful innocent lamb 05:32 but because the lamb of God was willing to come 05:35 and die for our sins. 05:37 Then all that's necessary is that 05:39 we come and claim that sacrifice, 05:42 and the loving Father, then accepting that sacrifice 05:45 looks at us and sees us in the righteousness 05:49 of the perfect Lamb of God that takes away 05:51 the sins of the world and we stand before Him 05:53 as if we had never sinned. 05:55 That is a wonderful, wonderful truth for us 05:57 to see and consider. 05:58 I see that you have a dog here, Tiffany. 06:00 Is he a working dog or just a pet? 06:02 He's a working dog. 06:03 We had a demonstration here a moment ago 06:06 and he's out there now, just watching, 06:08 I don't know if the camera's bringing up or not, 06:10 because the sheep are here is because that dog is out there. 06:13 He doesn't bite the sheep? No 06:15 Does he frighten the sheep? No. 06:19 He simply moves about chasing them in one direction 06:23 or the other and bringing in for. 06:24 I noticed that there are many commands 06:26 occasionally just drop his hand. 06:28 And that means to lay down to stop. Yes 06:30 Isn't that beautiful, it must take some time 06:32 to train a dog like that. 06:34 I know many children that aren't trained that well. 06:37 It's a joy to see a well trained dog 06:39 or a well trained sheep. 06:41 We find that the sheep represents Jesus, 06:45 the perfect Lamb of God. 06:47 And what beautiful innocence sheep, and is it true 06:50 that sheep are very difficult to drive but easy to lead. 06:54 Yes. You just follow, lead off and they will follow much ease 06:59 than it is to chase them and drive them 07:01 and to frighten them. 07:02 They are such just gentle creatures. 07:03 We all love the sheep don't we? 07:06 Once again, I want to remind you 07:08 that Jesus the perfect Lamb of God 07:11 is the one who created and made all of these things. 07:15 He is the one that died for us on the cross 07:18 and makes it all possible. 07:20 So, boys and girls, remember to tell Him, 07:23 how much you love Him and appreciate Him. 07:25 Because He is such a lovely wonderful heavenly Father 07:29 and He most certainly does, really love you. 07:41 Hello, boys and girls. 07:43 First Corinthians 10 verse 31 says, 07:46 "What so ever you do, do all to the glory of God." 07:50 Won't you join us in this song 07:51 as we invite our heavenly Father to be here. 07:59 Father God just for today 08:06 Help me walk the narrow way. 08:11 Help me stand when I should fall 08:18 Lend me the strength to hear your call. 08:23 May my steps be worship, May my thoughts be praise, 08:29 May my words bring honor to Your name, 08:34 May my steps be worship, May my thoughts be praise, 08:40 May my words bring honor to Your name. 08:46 Father God just for today 08:52 Help me walk the narrow way. 08:58 Help me stand when I should fall 09:05 Lend me the strength to hear Your call. 09:10 May my steps be worship, May my thoughts be praise, 09:16 May my words bring honor to Your name, 09:22 May my steps be worship, May my thoughts be praise, 09:28 May my words bring honor to Your name. 09:38 Boys and girls, God loves to be a part of everything 09:41 that we do. 09:50 Hi, today we're going to make our Aunt Linda's Waffles. 09:53 She works at a camp in Wahanda 09:55 and everybody loves her cooking. 09:58 She made this recipe. 10:00 Yeah, we'd love to go there and eat her cooking. 10:02 She's just a really great cook. 10:04 Jody, why don't you read the recipe for them? 10:06 Okay.

I don't know where to start. 15:45 I did so want everything to be nice for our guests. 15:49 I don't know why Mary can't help me. 15:52 She knows I like everything nice 15:54 when we have special company. 15:56 We have this, all this bread to make, 15:59 we have so much to do. 16:01 I don't know why she -- and you know where Mary is, 16:05 where is that Mary? 16:07 Right, I know where Mary is. 16:10 Mary is back at the house. 16:12 She's listening to Jesus, with our brother Lazarus. 16:16 Well, I don't care if she is my sister, 16:19 she should be helping me. 16:21 She knows that I've got to -- 16:22 oh no, look how I've gotten flour 16:26 all of over my good dress, 16:28 what am I going to do? 16:29 Oh no! It's probably all over my face 16:32 and we have company and everything. 16:36 Oh! You know, I just don't understand it, 16:41 it's always Martha has to do it, Martha will take care of this, 16:45 Martha will clean up, Martha will do the laundry. 16:48 Whenever there's guest to do, Martha will take care of them. 16:52 Why, even our friend Simon had a party 16:55 and he asked Martha to come and help him, 16:57 because he knows that Martha likes everything to be so 17:02 special. But, you know what, I went and I complained. 17:06 I went into the house and I complained and I said, 17:09 Jesus, I said, look at Mary, she's sitting here 17:14 listening to you talk and look at all 17:17 I've got to do outside. 17:19 Can't Mary come out and help me? 17:22 And do you know what Jesus said to me. 17:26 Why, He looked at me and He said, 17:30 Martha, you worry about too many thinks. 17:36 You're so busy worrying about all these little things 17:40 that you need to be think need to be done. 17:43 But what Mary is doing is most important 17:48 and will never be taken from her. 17:51 Why I didn't know what to say when He said that, 17:53 so I just came back out here. 17:56 I mean, doesn't He know that 17:58 I have important things to do out here. 18:01 Why, I should be worried about them. 18:04 I have, look at all I have to do. 18:06 They have to eat and they need clean clothes 18:09 and they need fresh water. 18:12 What was he meaning that what Mary was doing 18:16 was more important and would never be taken from her? 18:20 What could be more important than this? 18:25 I just don't understand it. 18:27 You know, what could He have meant 18:31 that what Mary was doing was more important. 18:35 Do you think, may be that Jesus was saying 18:42 that what Jesus has to say is more important 18:47 than what I have to do? 18:50 Maybe that's it, maybe that's what 18:54 Jesus was trying to tell me. 18:57 I need to spend time with Jesus now, while He's here. 19:03 I should be back in the house 19:05 with Mary and Lazarus listening to Jesus. 19:11 Maybe that's what Jesus was saying was more important. 19:15 You know something, I think this bread can wait 19:19 and I don't think we need the water right now. 19:23 I don't think that the laundry needs done today. 19:26 What I need to be doing is what Jesus said, 19:30 the most important, I need to be spending time with Jesus now. 19:35 I'm gonna go back to the house and I'm gonna spend time 19:38 with Jesus now while He's here. 19:52 Martha learned a very important lesson, didn't she? 19:55 Spending time with Jesus is most important thing 19:58 and it is also what will make us the happiest. 20:01 It's time now to open our mailbox. 20:03 Do you think we have any mail? 20:04 Let's go and look, okay. 20:07 I love to get letters. Let's see here. 20:11 Yes, we do. We have some mail. 20:13 Oh lots of wonderful letters. 20:16 I wonder if one of these is from you. 20:18 Let's look inside and see. 20:22 Oh, I wonder who we have, we have one from Renwick Meyers 20:27 and we have one from Mary Jean from Wisconsin Dells. 20:31 And we also have one from David in Florida. 20:37 Oh, so many of them, let's open up a couple of them 20:40 and see if I could share them with you. 20:43 All right, let's open this one from Renwick. 20:51 You know what, Renwick sent us a picture also. 20:54 Let's get Renwick's picture up here and show you. 20:58 You see that. Thank you, Renwick, 21:00 for sending a picture of yourselves 21:02 so that boys and girls at home can see how you look like. 21:05 Let's go look see what Renwick has to say. 21:08 Dear Brenda, I will like to share 21:11 with you my little story. 21:13 One day I went to the doctor's office 21:14 at the hospital with my mom 21:16 and an older lady was coming in the hospital. 21:19 I ran to open the door for her and this lady had a broken arm 21:23 and she was carrying a bag in the other. 21:26 The lady smiled at me and said, 21:28 you are a real gentleman. 21:31 Thank you, and God bless you. 21:33 You know what, Renwick, 21:34 that was a really kind thing for you to do. 21:36 When you saw that she couldn't open a door 21:39 and she's had something wrong with her arm. 21:41 That shows Jesus in heart and that showed the lady 21:44 that she taught you were a really kind person. 21:46 I thought that you shared Jesus 21:48 in a special way doing that. 21:50 Let's look here there's another from Mary Jean Rogie. 21:54 Now, if I ever pronounce your name wrong, 21:57 boys and girls, it's not on purpose. 21:58 I will try really hard to get it right and when, 22:01 and if you think I might have trouble 22:03 just give a little hint in a letter when you, 22:05 and tell me how to say it right, okay. 22:08 Let's see what Mary Jean says, 22:11 she says, dear Brenda, one way I share 22:14 Jesus is going to a nursing home and there 22:18 I talk to the people and I help them. 22:20 I also share Jesus there by singing 22:22 hymns or playing hymns on the flute and the piano. 22:25 Not only do I enjoy it, but I think they like it too. 22:29 Do you know what, Mary Jean, I'm sure you're right. 22:32 That's a wonderful way to share Jesus, isn't it? 22:34 You know, another way you can share Jesus 22:36 maybe at the nursing home. 22:38 I think there is quite a few people that have eye sight, 22:41 that it's hard for them to read. 22:43 Maybe you can go and if you know how to read 22:45 you could go to the nursing home 22:46 and maybe read a story 22:48 or maybe some scriptures from the Bible. 22:51 They love to be read to, don't they? 22:52 All right, maybe we've time for one more. 22:55 This one is from Jerry. 22:57 Let's look and see what Jerry has to tell us. 23:01 And Jerry says, dear Brenda, 23:04 I tell people about Jesus at school 23:07 and on every other day at my school the school has pizza. 23:10 Well, that's sounds good, I like pizza, don't you? 23:13 If that the pizza has pork in it, so I don't eat it. 23:16 Jesus doesn't want us to eat pork, does he? 23:19 When people see me not eating the pizza they ask me why, 23:23 and then I tell them about my religion in Jesus. 23:27 You know, Jerry, that is, we witness for Jesus everyday 23:31 by our actions and what we do, 23:33 and by you not eating the pork 23:35 that was a wonderful way to witness, wasn't it? 23:38 You know, there's an old rhyme that goes something like this. 23:41 "There is so much good in the worst of us 23:44 and so much bad in the best of us. 23:46 But it doesn't help any of us to talk about the rest of us." 23:50 That's kind of a silly line, isn't it? 23:52 I've been thinking a lot about words lately. 23:55 Words are very powerful and they can be used 23:58 in harmful ways or helpful ways. 24:00 They can deceive or they can hurt. 24:03 They can make people angry or discouraged. 24:05 You know, sometimes we don't realize just what we say 24:09 makes such an impact and it makes such a difference 24:12 in other people's life, doesn't it? 24:13 But what if gospel have the power to cheer up people 24:16 and to calm them when they're troubled 24:19 or they're stressed out, or to help them understand something 24:22 that has puzzled them or to make them feel important. 24:26 You know, the scary thing about words, 24:28 is that once you say something you can't unsay it, can you? 24:33 It's so easy to say something hurtful about someone, 24:37 and although you wish right away 24:39 you hadn't said those hurtful things they're out there 24:42 and it's too late you cannot them back. 24:46 You know, I think our little rhyme has the right idea, 24:50 none of us is so good or so perfect that 24:52 we have the right to find fault with someone else. 24:55 You know, another old thing is,think before you speak. 24:59 You know, that's very good advise. 25:01 So often we might be upset with someone 25:04 and we might just blurt something right out. 25:06 But that isn't the right way to do it, is that? 25:08 You wanna think, right up here 25:10 and use our minds that God gave us 25:12 before we say something. 25:13 The Bible has something to say about our words too. 25:16 In Proverbs we find this verse, 25:18 "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold 25:22 and pictures of silver." 25:23 And in Psalms 34:13 it says, 25:26 "Keep your tongue from evil, 25:28 and your lips from speaking deceit." 25:31 In the Book of James we're told that 25:33 the tongue is like a small fire 25:34 but capable of setting the whole forest ablaze. 25:37 Wow! Our words are really important, aren't they? 25:41 I wonder if we could bow our heads together and ask Jesus 25:45 to help us speak only 25:46 truthful, kind, and loving word. 25:49 Would you bow your head and pray with me right now. 25:52 Dear Jesus, thank You so much for loving us 25:56 and thank You for giving us minds to think. 25:59 And please dear Lord, help us to only speak kind words. 26:04 Help us, dear Lord, not to say untruthful things. 26:07 And if we, please forgive us if we've ever said 26:10 anything that's unkind or untrue. 26:13 But we only want to be your 26:15 shining lights for you, dear Jesus. 26:17 Thank you, for loving us and we love you, Jesus. Amen. 26:23 You know I like that song 26:24 when I was little girl that I sing incredible. 26:27 That was oh, be careful little eyes what you see 26:30 oh be careful little lips what you say. 26:33 Do you remember that song? 26:34 I loved that song in Sabbath school. 26:36 We do need to be careful what we say, don't we? 26:39 Because Jesus hears us and He knows what we say and do. 26:44 You know, boys and girls, Jesus is coming soon 26:47 and I want to be ready. 26:48 Remember, it's Kids Time to share Jesus. |
