Looking for a friend like Jesus
00:00:07.19\00:00:10.31
It's time to share
there's a world out there
00:00:10.32\00:00:13.63
Let's tell them
that He loves us so
00:00:13.64\00:00:17.00
Let's tell them

Kids' Time, Kids'
Time Kids' Time, Kids' Time
00:00:20.49\00:00:25.98
Hi Boys and girls,
how do you like my lion.
00:00:25.99\00:00:29.07
I really like him, he
is so soft and cuddly.
00:00:29.08\00:00:32.61
I can pat him like this
or lean my cheek against him,
00:00:32.62\00:00:36.67
but of course he's not real.
00:00:36.68\00:00:38.31
He's simply a toy and
he's made out of cloth
00:00:38.32\00:00:41.00
and I think there's
some stuffing in there too.
00:00:41.01\00:00:43.36
His eyes can't see
00:00:43.37\00:00:44.99
and his mouth
can't open and shut
00:00:45.00\00:00:47.07
and he just can't take a swipe
00:00:47.08\00:00:48.50
at anything with
his clawless paws.
00:00:48.51\00:00:51.14
This lion can't roar or run,
00:00:51.15\00:00:53.81
or even swish his
little tail back here.
00:00:53.82\00:00:56.98
Of course, if he
could do all those things,
00:00:56.99\00:00:58.72
I wouldn't dare to
get this close to him.
00:00:58.73\00:01:01.38
You know, in the beginning
00:01:01.39\00:01:02.39
God created
animals to be gentle,
00:01:02.40\00:01:04.69
even the lions and the tigers.
00:01:04.70\00:01:06.89
But when sin
came into the world,
00:01:06.90\00:01:08.79
animals were affected too,
00:01:08.80\00:01:10.23
making some of
them mean and dangerous.
00:01:10.24\00:01:13.05
Won't it be
wonderful when we get to heaven
00:01:13.06\00:01:15.43
and all the animals
will be gentle once again,
00:01:15.44\00:01:18.58
I can't wait for that day?
00:01:18.59\00:01:20.81
Right now Ranger
Jim is going to tell us
00:01:20.82\00:01:22.69
about a friendly
animal the Ferret.
00:01:22.70\00:01:25.24
Hi boys and
girls, Ranger Jim, here
00:01:31.92\00:01:33.64
as you can see we have a
very restless Slinky here
00:01:33.65\00:01:36.28
that I'm holding.
00:01:36.29\00:01:37.30
He's a beautiful
Ferret, not only is he a Ferret,
00:01:37.31\00:01:39.30
but he's also Albino.
00:01:39.31\00:01:41.01
You could see
his beautiful color,
00:01:41.02\00:01:42.75
his lovely eyes.
00:01:42.76\00:01:43.92
Albinism is caused
by a lack of a gene,
00:01:43.93\00:01:47.09
a missing gene in
their genetic code
00:01:47.10\00:01:49.70
and therefore
don't have the ability
00:01:49.71\00:01:51.55
to form the colors in
their fur and in their eyes.
00:01:51.56\00:01:55.22
And so their eyes
are perfectly clear
00:01:55.23\00:01:57.43
and the pink that we
see in their eyes is called
00:01:57.44\00:02:00.02
that we're looking, actually
seeing the blood vessels
00:02:00.03\00:02:02.65
in the eye itself.
00:02:02.66\00:02:04.33
And so and these animals,
00:02:04.34\00:02:05.40
it makes a beautiful creature.
00:02:05.41\00:02:07.05
Ferrets are not wild animals,
they're domesticated animals,
00:02:07.06\00:02:09.79
have been
domesticated for 2500 years.
00:02:09.80\00:02:12.41
So to describe a
Ferret, he is more or less,
00:02:12.42\00:02:14.77
between a cat and a dog, okay.
00:02:14.78\00:02:17.06
Little more
independent like a cat,
00:02:17.07\00:02:19.33
but as you can see
he is very unhappy,
00:02:19.34\00:02:21.19
he wants to get down.
00:02:21.20\00:02:22.45
We're visiting
in his home today,
00:02:22.46\00:02:23.75
he wants to get down
00:02:23.76\00:02:24.73
and play on the
floor like any pet.
00:02:24.74\00:02:26.87
And I'm still trying
to bounce him you see,
00:02:26.88\00:02:28.85
to keep him quiet,
but if I don't do that,
00:02:28.86\00:02:30.80
then he gets a little
bite at you that he wants down.
00:02:30.81\00:02:33.00
But let's just
talk about the Ferret
00:02:33.01\00:02:34.62
and he is a very
interesting creature.
00:02:34.63\00:02:38.03
The boys we call a
hob, can you imagine that.
00:02:38.04\00:02:41.61
And the girls, that's
better, girls are called jills.
00:02:41.62\00:02:44.35
But this is a little hob
and he is a cancer survivor.
00:02:44.36\00:02:47.78
In fact he has had
cancer three times,
00:02:47.79\00:02:49.95
isn't that
wonderful that he's survived
00:02:49.96\00:02:51.88
good veterinarian care.
00:02:51.89\00:02:53.39
And I was just
talking to his owner
00:02:53.40\00:02:54.96
and she was
expressing we thought that,
00:02:54.97\00:02:57.20
when we take an animal
00:02:57.21\00:02:59.23
like Ranger Jim
has told you before,
00:02:59.24\00:03:01.21
when we have an animal,
we're responsible for it.
00:03:01.22\00:03:03.91
And so when her
Ferret got cancer,
00:03:03.92\00:03:06.40
she didn't have him
destroyed and put to sleep.
00:03:06.41\00:03:08.98
She took him to
the best veterinarian
00:03:08.99\00:03:10.65
that she could find.
00:03:10.66\00:03:11.75
And so the
veterinarian removed a cancer
00:03:11.76\00:03:13.72
from under his shoulder here.
00:03:13.73\00:03:15.29
Then he had to have
another cancer removed
00:03:15.30\00:03:17.26
and eventually Slinky
lost half of his tail.
00:03:17.27\00:03:20.11
Normally he has a longer tail,
00:03:20.12\00:03:21.95
but he has a short tail now.
00:03:21.96\00:03:23.66
We are happy to
have him survived,
00:03:23.67\00:03:25.31
and now she says, he
is as happy and healthy
00:03:25.32\00:03:28.22
as the horse, okay.
00:03:28.23\00:03:29.62
So that's the wonderful
story in itself, isn't it?
00:03:29.63\00:03:32.00
Ferrets normally breed
and the mother gives birth
00:03:32.01\00:03:36.08
to four or five
kids and raises them.
00:03:36.09\00:03:39.06
And of course being a mammal,
giving birth to live young
00:03:39.07\00:03:42.00
and feeding their
young from mammary glands
00:03:42.01\00:03:44.14
that she has on
her stomach like this.
00:03:44.15\00:03:47.18
Ferrets come in
many different colors,
00:03:47.19\00:03:48.79
there are some beautiful sables
00:03:48.80\00:03:50.47
and browns and
things of that nature.
00:03:50.48\00:03:52.96
And really Ferrets are
not recommended to families
00:03:52.97\00:03:55.84
who have children,
especially small children.
00:03:55.85\00:03:58.32
Now if your child
eight or ten years old
00:03:58.33\00:04:00.99
and mother and dad agree
and you are knowledgeable
00:04:01.00\00:04:03.68
somewhat about
Ferrets, or you have a friend
00:04:03.69\00:04:05.66
who has a Ferret
that visited in your home
00:04:05.67\00:04:08.23
and your people can
see him and estimate,
00:04:08.24\00:04:11.65
make an evaluation, if
you could have this as a pet.
00:04:11.66\00:04:14.64
They do make pet for
older boys and girls,
00:04:14.65\00:04:16.96
they are wonderful companion.
00:04:16.97\00:04:18.96
They're amusing, you
can watch them by the hour.
00:04:18.97\00:04:21.94
Give them a
roll of paper towels.
00:04:21.95\00:04:24.80
Slinky, here's
favorite pastime for his owner,
00:04:24.81\00:04:28.23
it's for her to wet a
mop and put it on the floor
00:04:28.24\00:04:30.39
and can you believe that
00:04:30.40\00:04:31.67
Slinky weighs
two-and-half pounds.
00:04:31.68\00:04:34.16
He can pull a wetted
mop right across the floor.
00:04:34.17\00:04:37.51
Its amazing the strength of
a Ferret and as you can see,
00:04:37.52\00:04:40.56
he is getting very unhappy now.
00:04:40.57\00:04:42.54
He wants me to let him
go and get on the floor,
00:04:42.55\00:04:44.59
so he can do all these things.
00:04:44.60\00:04:46.28
I've been telling him
that he is a very famous Ferret
00:04:46.29\00:04:48.88
that he is on television.
00:04:48.89\00:04:50.19
So boys and girls can see him.
00:04:50.20\00:04:51.94
Now, Ferrets do have an
odor, a musk odor because
00:04:51.95\00:04:55.75
they're from the weasel family,
00:04:55.76\00:04:57.92
minks and weasels and polecats
00:04:57.93\00:04:59.77
and things of that
nature and all of them
00:04:59.78\00:05:01.89
have a certain
characteristic odor about them.
00:05:01.90\00:05:04.44
And that's from
glands and their fur
00:05:04.45\00:05:06.78
and this is to assist in
their fur waterproofing it
00:05:06.79\00:05:09.91
and making them healthy.
00:05:09.92\00:05:11.35
Many people make the mistake
00:05:11.36\00:05:12.58
because the Ferret
has some odor about it
00:05:12.59\00:05:14.50
that they give him a bath.
00:05:14.51\00:05:15.81
And they bath
him, and they bath him,
00:05:15.82\00:05:17.12
and they bath him,
the more you bath him,
00:05:17.13\00:05:19.60
the more they sweat,
the more the oil glands
00:05:19.61\00:05:21.94
in its fur work and pour forth
00:05:21.95\00:05:24.64
more, and more,
and more of the musk
00:05:24.65\00:05:26.48
and so you're
defeating the purpose.
00:05:26.49\00:05:28.75
The more you bath the Ferret,
00:05:28.76\00:05:30.11
the more prominent
will be the odor, okay.
00:05:30.12\00:05:32.86
And so if you've a Ferret,
00:05:32.87\00:05:34.06
you're having a
problem with the odor.
00:05:34.07\00:05:35.28
I would recommend
00:05:35.29\00:05:36.34
that you just stop
bathing him so often.
00:05:36.35\00:05:38.12
He's clean, he's
neat, he bath himself.
00:05:38.13\00:05:40.39
You can see him licking
his paws and cleaning himself
00:05:40.40\00:05:43.86
and so spend more time
00:05:43.87\00:05:45.31
in taking care
of the litter box.
00:05:45.32\00:05:47.06
The Ferret is easily trained
to a litter box like a cat
00:05:47.07\00:05:50.18
and he also
enjoys special treats
00:05:50.19\00:05:52.71
that we have over of the side,
00:05:52.72\00:05:53.90
I might give him one of these
and see if he would like it.
00:05:53.91\00:05:56.11
Would you like a
treat, would you like a treat?
00:05:56.12\00:05:59.07
Okay, but you don't
want to stay here and eat it,
00:05:59.08\00:06:00.88
do you, because
the Ferret has a habit,
00:06:00.89\00:06:03.53
something that he loves to do.
00:06:03.54\00:06:05.24
He will steal things, okay,
small mirror or shiny things
00:06:05.25\00:06:09.77
or even larger things and
then he loves to take them
00:06:09.78\00:06:12.48
and hide them
behind the Davenport,
00:06:12.49\00:06:14.34
behind the bed,
behind the chair wherever,
00:06:14.35\00:06:17.02
so they're mischievous in that.
00:06:17.03\00:06:18.50
So you would want to
take that into consideration.
00:06:18.51\00:06:20.68
If you're gonna have a Ferret,
00:06:20.69\00:06:21.82
having running
loose in your house,
00:06:21.83\00:06:23.50
you would want to
Ferret proof your house.
00:06:23.51\00:06:26.18
Much the same we do at our house
00:06:26.19\00:06:28.35
when we have the
grandchildren come,
00:06:28.36\00:06:29.99
we grandchildren
proof the house, okay.
00:06:30.00\00:06:32.28
Grandmother has many nice things
00:06:32.29\00:06:33.87
that she has on coffee tables.
00:06:33.88\00:06:35.50
We don't leave those
things out when a two-year-old
00:06:35.51\00:06:38.02
or an eighteen
months old toddler is
00:06:38.03\00:06:39.51
coming to your
house, because if you do,
00:06:39.52\00:06:42.07
they're going to be
into it and destroy it.
00:06:42.08\00:06:44.02
So if you've the Ferret, we'd
want to protect those things
00:06:44.03\00:06:47.15
as well as protecting things
00:06:47.16\00:06:48.68
that the Ferret might
injure themselves upon.
00:06:48.69\00:06:50.91
We wouldn't have
an extension cord
00:06:50.92\00:06:52.50
that they might chew on
and electrocute themselves
00:06:52.51\00:06:54.75
and things of this nature.
00:06:54.76\00:06:55.74
So they do make a wonderful pet
00:06:55.75\00:06:57.99
and so keep that in mind
00:06:58.00\00:06:59.08
if you're
considering getting one,
00:06:59.09\00:07:00.72
you can buy them from the store.
00:07:00.73\00:07:02.45
And some states in the
past, they in most states now
00:07:02.46\00:07:05.01
they're legal
but they were illegal
00:07:05.02\00:07:06.53
because early
in American history
00:07:06.54\00:07:09.20
man learn that you could
trap a Ferret and train it.
00:07:09.21\00:07:11.95
Then when you
went rabbit hunting
00:07:11.96\00:07:13.36
in the winter time,
00:07:13.37\00:07:14.34
when the snow was on the ground,
00:07:14.35\00:07:15.76
the rabbits like to
spend the winter underground
00:07:15.77\00:07:18.60
in the burrow of a fox den
00:07:18.61\00:07:19.90
or something like that
where it is comfortable,
00:07:19.91\00:07:22.44
safe away from the cold weather
00:07:22.45\00:07:24.06
and what have you so.
00:07:24.07\00:07:25.08
Sometimes there might be
fifteen to twenty rabbits
00:07:25.09\00:07:27.47
occupying one abandoned fox den.
00:07:27.48\00:07:29.91
If you had a
Ferret all you had to do
00:07:29.92\00:07:31.99
even though the Ferret wasn't
big enough to grab the rabbit
00:07:32.00\00:07:35.29
and kill it, it was enough that
00:07:35.30\00:07:36.78
when the Ferret went down
00:07:36.79\00:07:37.80
and they're
wandering into the hole,
00:07:37.81\00:07:39.01
the rabbits all came out
the other end of the hole,
00:07:39.02\00:07:41.42
I promise you.
00:07:41.43\00:07:42.53
And so then the
farmer or the man
00:07:42.54\00:07:44.37
who was hunting rabbits for food
00:07:44.38\00:07:46.09
would stand there with
his gun and shoot the rabbits.
00:07:46.10\00:07:48.48
So it became an illegal form
of hunting to use the Ferret.
00:07:48.49\00:07:52.52
To chase game from a hole
that was an unfair advantage
00:07:52.53\00:07:55.29
and I would agree with
that, that should be illegal.
00:07:55.30\00:07:58.61
But now in most
places Ferrets are legal,
00:07:58.62\00:08:01.18
so if you want to
consider getting one,
00:08:01.19\00:08:03.20
be sure to get it.
00:08:03.21\00:08:04.18
But he is a wonderful,
00:08:04.19\00:08:05.67
now that we're probably
finished with the project,
00:08:05.68\00:08:07.88
he has realized
00:08:07.89\00:08:08.93
it's his last chance
to make a good impression.
00:08:08.94\00:08:11.35
So he is being a very
good boy really snugly
00:08:11.36\00:08:13.85
and I'm not going to
wrinkle up that close.
00:08:13.86\00:08:15.58
But boys and girls as always,
00:08:15.59\00:08:16.93
when Ranger Jim has talked
to you about these creatures,
00:08:16.94\00:08:19.30
who could look at
this lovely creature
00:08:19.31\00:08:20.99
and not know that Jesus made.
00:08:21.00\00:08:23.47
That he provided
all the things for
00:08:23.48\00:08:25.16
and we're still
happy for Slinky that
00:08:25.17\00:08:26.62
he has survived
even cancer three times
00:08:26.63\00:08:29.09
and he is such a lovely pet.
00:08:29.10\00:08:30.51
If you should
ever be in this area
00:08:30.52\00:08:32.15
or if you could just
come and see him and hold him
00:08:32.16\00:08:34.35
and see all these things,
00:08:34.36\00:08:35.66
you would know that
Jesus loves the Ferrets too.
00:08:35.67\00:08:38.71
We've learnt he
loves this Ferrets,
00:08:38.72\00:08:40.30
most of all he
loves boys and girls.
00:08:40.31\00:08:42.41
So Ranger Jim as
always reminding you,
00:08:42.42\00:08:45.41
don't forget to tell
Jesus that you love Him,
00:08:45.42\00:08:47.89
because He really does love you.
00:08:47.90\00:08:51.31
Hello boys and girls,
00:08:57.82\00:08:59.56
a lion is a very,
very fierce animal.
00:08:59.57\00:09:02.88
But a lion is no
match for an angel
00:09:02.89\00:09:04.73
that God sends down here to
protect one of his children.
00:09:04.74\00:09:08.52
Daniel 6:22 talks about that.
00:09:08.53\00:09:10.64
Adam can you tell us
what Daniel 6:22 says.
00:09:10.65\00:09:13.21
"God sent his angels
to shut the lions' mouth".
00:09:13.22\00:09:16.58
That's right, and we
know that God can do anything.
00:09:16.59\00:09:19.87
Boys and girls we're going to do
00:09:19.88\00:09:21.33
the story of
Daniel in the lions' den.
00:09:21.34\00:09:23.62
Long ago there
lived a man named, Daniel
00:09:34.74\00:09:39.32
known throughout
the land for being wise
00:09:39.33\00:09:43.62
placed in a foreign
country as a governor
00:09:43.63\00:09:48.21
because God knew
Daniel wouldn't compromise
00:09:48.22\00:09:53.03
Also in this
land were many princes
00:09:53.04\00:09:57.00
who knew Daniel was
the favorite of the king
00:09:57.01\00:10:01.92
They tried to
find a faultitude that
00:10:01.93\00:10:04.36
this man had
00:10:04.37\00:10:06.52
But Daniel never
failed at anything
00:10:06.53\00:10:11.06
There had to be some
way that they could get him
00:10:11.07\00:10:15.23
They watched him as he
prayed three times a day
00:10:15.24\00:10:20.21
They plotted and they
planned went to the palace man.
00:10:20.22\00:10:24.76
The king Darius
heard those princess saying
00:10:24.77\00:10:29.33
Oh king, we've all been
talking your righteous do
00:10:29.34\00:10:33.70
Why don't we take a
month or so to worship you
00:10:33.71\00:10:38.22
And if someone finds
another God to pray to then
00:10:38.23\00:10:42.89
we'll let him spend
underneath in the lions' den
00:10:42.90\00:10:49.98
The king was very flattered
his crown got way to touch
00:10:49.99\00:10:54.53
Before he knew if he
had signed the decree
00:10:54.54\00:10:58.61
but when Daniel
heard about the law
00:10:58.62\00:11:01.08
he didn't changed his
life at all, just knelt to pray
00:11:01.09\00:11:04.52
so everyone could see
00:11:04.53\00:11:08.36
When they saw praying
00:11:08.37\00:11:09.97
they knew he would soon be dead
00:11:09.98\00:11:12.71
But when they threw him to
the lions this is what he said
00:11:12.72\00:11:19.76
Here kitty Kitty
Here kitty, kitty
00:11:19.77\00:11:21.73
Let me pet you may now to glad
00:11:21.74\00:11:23.53
he came over here kitty, kitty
00:11:23.54\00:11:25.47
You're kitty, kitty
Looking hungry there
00:11:25.48\00:11:27.38
but I don't care
I'm not going to fear
00:11:27.39\00:11:29.65
with my God back here
00:11:29.66\00:11:30.87
and He is keeping
your mouth shut tight
00:11:30.88\00:11:33.50
Oh what a pity
you great that kitties
00:11:33.51\00:11:35.47
they are going
to get meal tonight
00:11:35.48\00:11:37.28
The king could
hardly sleep at night
00:11:41.28\00:11:43.52
he knew what he
had done wasn't right
00:11:43.53\00:11:46.03
why had he even
overcome by pride
00:11:46.04\00:11:50.24
So when the
morning he goes hurriedly
00:11:50.25\00:11:53.45
his eyes close went
down the side of den
00:11:53.46\00:11:56.49
and gone inside
00:11:56.50\00:11:59.39
Oh Daniel are you still awake
00:11:59.40\00:12:01.91
or have I made a great mistake
00:12:01.92\00:12:04.27
can you tell me
please I've got to know
00:12:04.28\00:12:08.51
Then Daniel
called up from the den
00:12:08.52\00:12:10.76
your kept food I've never been
00:12:10.77\00:12:13.35
My God's with me everywhere I go
00:12:13.36\00:12:17.77
And if you're making another law
00:12:17.78\00:12:19.90
that says that I can't pray
00:12:19.91\00:12:22.22
I'll see my
friends down here again
00:12:22.23\00:12:24.39
and for and so again I'll stay
00:12:24.40\00:12:29.30
You're kitty,
kitty You're kitty, kitty
00:12:29.31\00:12:31.38
Let me pet you may now to glad
00:12:31.39\00:12:33.07
he came over here kitty, kitty
00:12:33.08\00:12:34.91
You're kitty kitty
Looking hungry there
00:12:34.92\00:12:36.94
but I don't care
I'm not going to fear
00:12:36.95\00:12:39.33
when my God right here
00:12:39.34\00:12:40.35
and He is keeping
your mouth shut tight
00:12:40.36\00:12:43.08
Oh what a pity
you great big kitties
00:12:43.09\00:12:45.08
you're going to
get a meal tonight
00:12:45.09\00:12:47.58
Oh what a pity
you great big kitties
00:12:47.59\00:12:49.67
you're going to
get a meal tonight
00:12:49.68\00:12:52.94
And boys and girls, we
don't ever have to be afraid,
00:12:58.79\00:13:01.20
because God is always with us.
00:13:01.21\00:13:03.41
Well hello, I would like
to tell you a story today
00:13:13.27\00:13:17.03
and I want you to
listen very carefully,
00:13:17.04\00:13:19.03
because it's a
story how God protected me
00:13:19.04\00:13:22.38
in a life and death situation.
00:13:22.39\00:13:25.57
You see, some evil
men wanted to kill me
00:13:25.58\00:13:29.24
and put me to death.
00:13:29.25\00:13:31.22
They didn't like
me because I serve,
00:13:31.23\00:13:34.55
the Most High
God, the Creator God
00:13:34.56\00:13:37.47
and I love Him
with all of my heart.
00:13:37.48\00:13:40.26
You see three times a
day, I talked to our God.
00:13:40.27\00:13:44.56
I go up into my
room and I open my window
00:13:44.57\00:13:48.25
towards
Jerusalem and I kneel down
00:13:48.26\00:13:50.88
and I thank God for His
protection and His care.
00:13:50.89\00:13:54.95
You see I used to be a slave.
00:13:54.96\00:13:56.58
I was taken a
prisoner from Jerusalem
00:13:56.59\00:13:59.43
to many, many
miles away to a country
00:13:59.44\00:14:03.52
that was not my home.
00:14:03.53\00:14:05.70
And everyday I asked God
to keep me faithful to Him,
00:14:05.71\00:14:10.68
I want Him to protect
me, I don't want to rush up
00:14:10.69\00:14:13.69
the God's of gold and
silver and the heathen,
00:14:13.70\00:14:16.67
God's that are all around
me. You see, Daniel, is my name.
00:14:16.68\00:14:24.73
And these evil men were trying
00:14:24.74\00:14:27.87
to take my life
because, Darius, was the King
00:14:27.88\00:14:33.29
and he wanted to put me
00:14:33.30\00:14:35.52
in command of
all of the governors
00:14:35.53\00:14:38.99
and all of the
officials of the land.
00:14:39.00\00:14:41.66
It would be the highest position
00:14:41.67\00:14:43.54
in all of the kingdom
and they were jealous of me,
00:14:43.55\00:14:46.49
they didn't like me at all.
00:14:46.50\00:14:49.04
So they thought how
can we destroy, Daniel.
00:14:49.05\00:14:53.99
You see I was
faithful to God and to the king
00:14:54.00\00:14:57.36
and they couldn't find anything
00:14:57.37\00:14:59.05
that was wrong with me.
00:14:59.06\00:15:01.18
Anything in my work,
they couldn't find any fault
00:15:01.19\00:15:05.07
in what I've done I did.
00:15:05.08\00:15:07.63
And so they studied my
life and they went to the king
00:15:07.64\00:15:12.42
and they said,
king we've an idea,
00:15:12.43\00:15:15.78
you are a great king and
you deserve worshipping praise.
00:15:15.79\00:15:23.01
We would propose a law
00:15:23.02\00:15:25.02
that, no man would ask a
petition of any man or God
00:15:25.03\00:15:29.95
except you, oh
great, king Darius.
00:15:29.96\00:15:33.57
The king thought
about that and he said,
00:15:33.58\00:15:35.98
well, that's a,
that's a great decree.
00:15:35.99\00:15:38.35
I like that, no man would ask
00:15:38.36\00:15:41.17
of any other person except me.
00:15:41.18\00:15:43.77
Yes I like that you
write that up in the law.
00:15:43.78\00:15:49.35
Well, king we would
like to add something else.
00:15:49.36\00:15:52.30
If any one breaks that law,
00:15:52.31\00:15:54.47
if any one worships
any other God except you,
00:15:54.48\00:15:58.19
then they should be
placed into the lion's den,
00:15:58.20\00:16:01.26
they should be killed.
00:16:01.27\00:16:02.77
The king liked that idea too.
00:16:04.98\00:16:07.08
He said that's
great, you put that into law
00:16:07.09\00:16:10.64
and according to the law
of the Medes and the Persians,
00:16:10.65\00:16:13.25
it cannot be changed.
00:16:13.26\00:16:16.20
Well, when I read the
law, I knew what it happened,
00:16:16.21\00:16:19.04
these evil men wrote that law,
00:16:19.05\00:16:21.64
so that they could destroy me.
00:16:21.65\00:16:23.96
They knew about my
prayer life to my God.
00:16:23.97\00:16:28.08
I thought about it for a minute,
00:16:28.09\00:16:29.53
should I close the door,
should I close my window,
00:16:29.54\00:16:33.38
should I pray in secret.
00:16:33.39\00:16:35.86
No, that doesn't seem right,
that would be denying God,
00:16:35.87\00:16:39.92
that would mean that
I was ashamed of Him.
00:16:39.93\00:16:42.94
And you see I believe
that, that would hurt God.
00:16:42.95\00:16:47.08
And so I said it
didn't matter, if I would die.
00:16:47.09\00:16:51.58
If I would go into
that lions' den or not
00:16:51.59\00:16:54.19
I was going to pray.
00:16:54.20\00:16:55.68
And I went up into
my room and I knelt down
00:16:55.69\00:16:59.50
and I thanked God for
His love and His care.
00:16:59.51\00:17:02.90
I asked God, Lord,
would you please protect me.
00:17:02.91\00:17:07.00
You know about this decree
00:17:07.01\00:17:09.02
and there are men
watching me right now
00:17:09.03\00:17:11.75
and I know that
they're going to place me
00:17:11.76\00:17:15.47
into the lions'
den, but I don't care,
00:17:15.48\00:17:18.19
I will die for you.
00:17:18.20\00:17:20.84
Sure enough, the leaders,
they went to king Darius
00:17:20.85\00:17:25.02
and they said, O
king live forever.
00:17:25.03\00:17:28.05
You remember the
decree that you had made?
00:17:28.06\00:17:31.61
He said yes I remember
that decree, what about it.
00:17:31.62\00:17:35.09
And they said
there is a man O king,
00:17:35.10\00:17:38.65
that defied your law.
00:17:38.66\00:17:40.61
And he said what, who would dare
00:17:40.62\00:17:43.33
defy the law of the
Medes and the Persians
00:17:43.34\00:17:46.13
that cannot be
changed, to death to that man.
00:17:46.14\00:17:50.00
And they said
exactly king, it is Daniel.
00:17:50.01\00:17:56.53
The king felt really bad.
00:17:56.54\00:17:59.45
He said not my friend, Daniel,
00:17:59.46\00:18:02.12
and then he realized
that he had been tricked.
00:18:02.13\00:18:05.02
Those men didn't care about him
00:18:05.03\00:18:06.57
they just wanted
to destroy Daniel.
00:18:06.58\00:18:09.54
And so, Darius, he
spent that entire night
00:18:09.55\00:18:13.39
fasting and praying
and he called me before him
00:18:13.40\00:18:17.24
and he said, Daniel, I'm sorry
00:18:17.25\00:18:19.80
those men have tricked
me, but I know your, God,
00:18:19.81\00:18:24.17
he can deliver you.
00:18:24.18\00:18:25.71
I've heard the
stories of your God,
00:18:25.72\00:18:28.54
can't he deliver you Daniel.
00:18:28.55\00:18:30.73
I said yes king,
He can deliver me.
00:18:30.74\00:18:35.16
And so the king gave the order
00:18:35.17\00:18:38.09
and I was lowered
down into that ground
00:18:38.10\00:18:41.85
in that musty old
smelly damp place.
00:18:41.86\00:18:48.94
Lions were
roaring, they were yelling,
00:18:48.95\00:18:52.16
but somehow I
wasn't afraid at all.
00:18:52.17\00:18:56.37
You see I had spent
that entire time praying
00:18:56.38\00:18:59.54
and God took the
fear away from me
00:18:59.55\00:19:02.68
and another thing is
that I was able to sing.
00:19:02.69\00:19:06.64
I was able to pray
00:19:06.65\00:19:08.37
and talk to God and thank Him.
00:19:08.38\00:19:11.20
The lions didn't hurt me at all.
00:19:11.21\00:19:14.36
That morning the
king he had told me
00:19:14.37\00:19:17.73
that he fasted,
he prayed all night
00:19:17.74\00:19:20.03
and he went to the
pit where the lions where
00:19:20.04\00:19:23.37
and he rolled away the stone
00:19:23.38\00:19:24.73
and he looked down
and he said Daniel,
00:19:24.74\00:19:27.89
has your God delivered you.
00:19:27.90\00:19:30.84
I looked up and I
said, yes king Darius,
00:19:30.85\00:19:35.13
my God whom I've
served, who I'm faithful to,
00:19:35.14\00:19:39.20
he sent an angel and
close the lions' mouth
00:19:39.21\00:19:42.72
and they've not hurt me.
00:19:42.73\00:19:45.06
The king was so happy,
00:19:45.07\00:19:46.74
he ordered men to pick
me up out of that cave.
00:19:46.75\00:19:52.58
And you know, one of
the first things that I did,
00:19:52.59\00:19:56.02
the very first thing
that I did was I knelt down
00:19:56.03\00:20:00.71
and I thanked God
for His protection.
00:20:00.72\00:20:04.39
God of great and God of
small God of one and God of all
00:20:20.66\00:20:29.71
God of weakened God of strong
God to whom all things belong
00:20:29.72\00:20:38.57
Hallelujah,
hallelujah, praise be thy name
00:20:38.58\00:20:47.00
God of land and sky and
sea God of life and destiny
00:20:53.75\00:21:01.71
God of never ranging
power yet beside me every hour
00:21:01.72\00:21:09.44
Hallelujah,
hallelujah praise be thy name
00:21:09.45\00:21:16.55
God of silence God of sound
00:21:23.66\00:21:28.81
God in whom the lost are found
00:21:28.82\00:21:33.95
God of day and darkest night
00:21:33.96\00:21:39.01
God whose love
turns wrong to right
00:21:39.02\00:21:45.02
God of heaven and God of earth
00:21:45.03\00:21:49.68
God of death and God of birth
00:21:49.69\00:21:53.97
God of now and days before
God who reigns forever more
00:21:53.98\00:22:03.57
Hallelujah,
hallelujah praise be thy name
00:22:03.58\00:22:14.16
Praise be thy name
00:22:14.17\00:22:22.25
Can you imagine being thrown
00:22:34.14\00:22:35.59
into that den for a hungry lion?
00:22:35.60\00:22:38.24
Daniel, loved Jesus
very much, didn't he.
00:22:38.25\00:22:41.06
And Jesus loved Daniel too.
00:22:41.07\00:22:43.26
Boys and girls,
Jesus, loves you too
00:22:43.27\00:22:45.23
and there's nothing about you
that God's not interested in.
00:22:45.24\00:22:48.79
Do you know that if you
have a sore throat, Jesus cares.
00:22:48.80\00:22:52.42
And if you forgot your homework
00:22:52.43\00:22:53.81
and you leave it
at home, Jesus cares.
00:22:53.82\00:22:56.74
If you broke one of your toys
00:22:56.75\00:22:58.46
and you feel bad, Jesus cares.
00:22:58.47\00:23:01.33
You know, Jesus, is always
there close to comfort you.
00:23:01.34\00:23:05.11
If some big
thing is troubling you,
00:23:05.12\00:23:07.44
in fact maybe your grandma died,
00:23:07.45\00:23:09.00
or you've to move away
00:23:09.01\00:23:10.58
and leave all of
your friends behind.
00:23:10.59\00:23:12.96
Jesus is especially close to you
00:23:12.97\00:23:14.74
and He comforts you
and if you think about it,
00:23:14.75\00:23:17.51
you can almost
feel Him hugging you.
00:23:17.52\00:23:20.07
Nothing in your
life is too small for God
00:23:20.08\00:23:22.35
to notice to care about.
00:23:22.36\00:23:24.39
And there's nothing so big
00:23:24.40\00:23:25.77
that He can't help
you handle that either.
00:23:25.78\00:23:27.95
So God is with you all the time.
00:23:27.96\00:23:30.33
You know, He rides
with you in your car
00:23:30.34\00:23:32.31
and even when
you're in the school bus
00:23:32.32\00:23:34.11
and He stays right with you
00:23:34.12\00:23:35.30
even when you are
sleeping at night.
00:23:35.31\00:23:37.18
You don't need to be
afraid, because Jesus is there.
00:23:37.19\00:23:40.16
He sees you even when
you're in your basement,
00:23:40.17\00:23:42.97
or maybe when
you're up in your attic.
00:23:42.98\00:23:45.06
It doesn't matter where you are,
00:23:45.07\00:23:46.75
you could be on the playground,
00:23:46.76\00:23:48.48
even if you've a
secret hiding place
00:23:48.49\00:23:50.94
Jesus knows about it
00:23:50.95\00:23:52.55
and He is there with
you keeping your company.
00:23:52.56\00:23:55.51
It's true that
we can't see Jesus,
00:23:55.52\00:23:57.60
but he is there just the same.
00:23:57.61\00:23:59.54
And if we take the time
to talk with Him and listen,
00:23:59.55\00:24:03.11
we can feel Him close-by.
00:24:03.12\00:24:04.65
We can hear Him
say that He loves us
00:24:04.66\00:24:06.94
that He'll always love us
00:24:06.95\00:24:08.94
and that He'll
never ever leave us.
00:24:08.95\00:24:11.94
Isn't that, a wonderful,
00:24:11.95\00:24:13.71
wonderful thing to
have a friend like Jesus?
00:24:13.72\00:24:17.03
But you know
what boys and girls,
00:24:17.04\00:24:18.26
its time for mailbox time.
00:24:18.27\00:24:20.34
Let's see if
we've any letters today.
00:24:20.35\00:24:22.84
I'm hoping I
have one from you too.
00:24:22.85\00:24:25.78
Let's see here, I do.
I've got some letters.
00:24:25.79\00:24:29.77
Oh, good, I don't
want to miss even one
00:24:29.78\00:24:34.50
and I have, oh, you know what,
00:24:34.51\00:24:36.25
I've a letter here
from Jessica and Jeremy
00:24:36.26\00:24:39.97
from Washington D.C.
00:24:39.98\00:24:42.05
And then I've something here
from Elisha and Mike Bretner.
00:24:42.06\00:24:47.68
And lets see what
Jessica and Jeremy
00:24:47.69\00:24:50.95
have done to
share Jesus, shall we?
00:24:50.96\00:24:55.28
Oh look, Jessica, and,
Jeremy, has sent us a picture.
00:24:55.29\00:25:00.34
Thank you for
sending the picture,
00:25:00.35\00:25:02.30
I really like
seeing what you look like.
00:25:02.31\00:25:05.55
Well, this letter says,
00:25:05.56\00:25:06.57
dear Brenda, my name
is, Jessica, and I'm eleven.
00:25:06.58\00:25:10.44
My mom is a
secretary at our church
00:25:10.45\00:25:12.61
and I help her
by doing what I can.
00:25:12.62\00:25:15.03
I often share Jesus by
watching my little brother
00:25:15.04\00:25:17.49
while my mom
works, love Jessica, P.S.
00:25:17.50\00:25:21.23
the pictures is
of me and my brother
00:25:21.24\00:25:23.18
and his name is Jeremy.
00:25:23.19\00:25:25.04
Thank you, Jessica, for
sharing this letter with us.
00:25:25.05\00:25:27.77
I'm sure it does share
Jesus when you cheerfully help
00:25:27.78\00:25:30.63
your mommy and
daddy out, doesn't it.
00:25:30.64\00:25:32.45
When your mommy needed
you to watch your brother,
00:25:32.46\00:25:34.70
that shows Jesus in
your heart, doesn't it.
00:25:34.71\00:25:37.50
Wel,l this letter
is from Mike Bretner.
00:25:37.51\00:25:40.34
Doesn't tell me where he's from.
00:25:40.35\00:25:43.02
Let's see what Mike had to say.
00:25:43.03\00:25:45.31
It says, dear
Brenda, I'm eight years old
00:25:45.32\00:25:48.84
and I like to roll a plane
and I like to ride my bike.
00:25:48.85\00:25:52.64
It sounds like fun, doesn't it.
00:25:52.65\00:25:54.92
And it said, I bumped into a man
00:25:54.93\00:25:58.00
that was carrying his groceries
00:25:58.01\00:25:59.65
and it spilled all
over the ground, oh my.
00:25:59.66\00:26:02.69
I stopped and
helped him picked him up
00:26:02.70\00:26:05.03
and he was mad at first,
but I told him I was sorry
00:26:05.04\00:26:08.54
and then he wasn't mad anywhere.
00:26:08.55\00:26:10.36
I think I shared Jesus
sincerely Mike Bretner.
00:26:10.37\00:26:14.09
You know, what Mike
you did share Jesus.
00:26:14.10\00:26:16.43
That was really a
very thoughtful thing
00:26:16.44\00:26:18.53
for you to do,
because you didn't mean
00:26:18.54\00:26:20.29
to bump into that man, did you.
00:26:20.30\00:26:22.15
And then you helped him
pick up all his groceries.
00:26:22.16\00:26:25.15
I'm sure he saw Jesus in you
00:26:25.16\00:26:27.26
in a very
special way, didn't he.
00:26:27.27\00:26:29.79
That made,
Jesus, really happy too.
00:26:29.80\00:26:32.14
Boys and girls, if you have
a special way to share Jesus,
00:26:32.15\00:26:34.68
why not write and
tell me, won't you.
00:26:34.69\00:26:36.97
Well that's all the time
we have today boys and girls.
00:26:36.98\00:26:39.83
Remember to keep
Jesus in your heart,
00:26:39.84\00:26:41.80
keep Him first in your life
00:26:41.81\00:26:43.84
and remember its
kids time to share Jesus.
00:26:43.85\00:26:47.81
