Looking for a friend
like Jesus. It's time to share
00:00:07.20\00:00:11.85
there's a world out
there; let's tell them
00:00:11.88\00:00:14.44
that He loves us so.
Let's tell them that He
00:00:14.47\00:00:18.17

00:00:18.33\00:00:25.16
Hello, boys and girls.
Do you know what kind of
00:00:25.19\00:00:27.03
animal this is? Can you
guess? That's right, it's a
00:00:27.17\00:00:31.12
giraffe. And what is the
first thing you notice about
00:00:31.35\00:00:34.13
a giraffe? Could it be
the very interesting pattern
00:00:34.17\00:00:37.28
of hair all over it's
body or maybe its long legs,
00:00:37.31\00:00:41.87
or maybe it's nubs,
nubby horns right here on the
00:00:42.48\00:00:45.38
top of his head. I'm
pretty sure though that the very
00:00:45.47\00:00:49.05
first thing you
noticed was it's very
00:00:49.10\00:00:51.63
long, long neck. You
know, the giraffe has the
00:00:51.91\00:00:55.17
longest neck of any
mammal and that use of that
00:00:55.37\00:00:58.97
neck to reach high into
the trees to eat leaves.
00:00:59.11\00:01:02.19
And actually the
giraffe eats mostly from a tree
00:01:02.81\00:01:05.27
called the Cashew Tree.
Now, they eat it's leaves
00:01:05.47\00:01:08.86
and twigs and the bark,
but they are most careful
00:01:09.14\00:01:12.80
not to eat a certain
part of that tree and do you
00:01:13.01\00:01:14.99
know, what that is it's
the sharp thorns that nestle
00:01:15.05\00:01:18.54
among its leaves. God
gave the giraffe's long neck
00:01:18.57\00:01:23.23
to reach high up into
the trees. And he also gave a
00:01:23.48\00:01:26.72
tough rubbery lips that
have very thick saliva to help
00:01:26.96\00:01:30.30
protected against
pokes and pricks from those
00:01:30.53\00:01:32.68
thorny cashew trees.
Sometimes I wish you and I
00:01:32.76\00:01:36.50
could be more or like
that giraffe even though it
00:01:36.58\00:01:39.39
finds itself
surrounded by both good and bad,
00:01:39.62\00:01:42.06
it chooses only the
good. The giraffe knows that
00:01:42.72\00:01:47.08
choosing the bad trying
to eat those thorns would
00:01:47.23\00:01:49.95
cause him a lot of
pain. And we humans just,
00:01:50.23\00:01:53.06
I know who is smart
aren't we, we figure that
00:01:53.53\00:01:56.19
listening to songs
with bad words won't really
00:01:56.35\00:01:58.53
hurt us all that
much or but watching TV or
00:01:58.66\00:02:01.68
movies with people,
hitting and fighting, and
00:02:01.91\00:02:03.75
shooting, and killing
each other. Well, I heard this
00:02:03.97\00:02:06.20
that much either, but
the truth is, we need to be
00:02:06.28\00:02:10.26
more or like that giraffe,
choosing only the things
00:02:10.33\00:02:13.50
that God's wants us to
choose, things that won't
00:02:13.57\00:02:16.15
hurt us. Do you know, if
we do that boys and girls,
00:02:16.30\00:02:20.17
we're gonna be happier
and healthier just like that
00:02:20.32\00:02:23.26
wise giraffe. Let's
listen what Ranger Jim tells
00:02:23.45\00:02:26.63
us a little bit
more about giraffes.
00:02:26.66\00:02:29.08
Hi, boys and girls.
Ranger Jim saying welcome to
00:02:35.92\00:02:37.98
Nature Time. Look what
we have today, we're in
00:02:38.02\00:02:39.99
beautiful Silver
Springs Florida again. We have
00:02:40.18\00:02:42.35
our friend Jessie with us
and, what is this, Jessie?
00:02:42.51\00:02:45.12
This is giraffe; it's almost
20 foot tall. And he comes
00:02:45.42\00:02:48.36
to us from Africa.
This is Kemah, this is one
00:02:48.49\00:02:51.12
of the giraffes here
in Silver Springs can
00:02:51.15\00:02:52.70
actually come up and
actually feed right here
00:02:53.06\00:02:54.66
Silver Spring. Isn't that
a thrill? What a beautiful
00:02:55.00\00:02:57.26
creature, boys and girls
you're seeing him on film,
00:02:57.39\00:02:59.35
but unless you see him
in person, this creature
00:02:59.71\00:03:02.98
can a two story house.
He could eat leaves off of
00:03:03.13\00:03:06.34
the top of your house, he
is so tall. And his tongue
00:03:06.37\00:03:09.16
is 18 inches long, look
at that. Now, they tell me
00:03:09.23\00:03:12.20
that is perfectly
possible that you might hold one
00:03:12.41\00:03:14.71
of these in your mouth. I
think so, Jim. And he will
00:03:14.82\00:03:17.13
take it. Oh! My, my
boys and girls you would
00:03:17.20\00:03:22.09
come they won't let
you do that, but you can
00:03:22.12\00:03:24.33
come and feed him out
of your hand, okay. These,
00:03:24.42\00:03:27.15
and you know, did you
see the color of his tongue?
00:03:27.18\00:03:29.61
Yes, I did. You
know, why it's real dark.
00:03:30.23\00:03:31.49
No, I don't. Because
they have got their head up
00:03:32.17\00:03:33.74
all the time in the
sunshine and they're grazing off
00:03:33.89\00:03:36.48
the tree, so it
doesn't get sunburn. Isn't that
00:03:36.51\00:03:38.90
beautiful? Wonderful,
wonderful, boys and girls
00:03:39.07\00:03:40.65
they're so many wonderful
things about the giraffe
00:03:40.68\00:03:42.87
as long as his neck
is, it's still has seven
00:03:43.23\00:03:45.83
vertebrae as do most
mammals and they're greatly
00:03:46.05\00:03:49.11
elongated. As you can
imagine and what's the
00:03:49.19\00:03:51.45
height that he has, he
has a special heart to pump
00:03:51.48\00:03:54.82
that blood up to his
brain, which is up in the air
00:03:54.98\00:03:58.40
20 feet like he is
raising his head now. Can you
00:03:58.56\00:04:01.14
imagine the normal
average mammal what's that
00:04:01.22\00:04:04.83
kind of heart and that
kind of blood vessels, if he
00:04:05.07\00:04:07.62
certainly lowered his
heart. Any other creature that
00:04:07.76\00:04:10.20
God made that did just
what he did without the
00:04:10.24\00:04:12.39
special adaptations
that he has would die. Some
00:04:12.65\00:04:15.79
people will find that
even if they're sitting down
00:04:15.97\00:04:17.70
or they aren't feeling
well, if they quickly stand up
00:04:17.85\00:04:20.13
because of the blood
pressure is different they
00:04:20.46\00:04:21.79
become dizzy maybe even
faint. This creature and
00:04:21.87\00:04:24.61
his neck as special veins,
they are very elastic, they
00:04:24.64\00:04:29.10
have valves in them.
So, that the blood pressure
00:04:29.13\00:04:31.46
is always flowing in
that direction and when he
00:04:31.49\00:04:33.90
wants to lower his head
to eat or drink, he must
00:04:33.95\00:04:36.85
spread his leg at a 45
degree angle and then put
00:04:37.04\00:04:39.71
his head down to taking
water, if he did not have
00:04:39.80\00:04:42.98
the elastic veins and
arteries in his brain, if he
00:04:43.01\00:04:46.51
didn't have all of
the specialized equipment,
00:04:46.62\00:04:48.50
the blood pressure
would be so great that the
00:04:49.38\00:04:51.22
arteries in his brain
would explode also these
00:04:51.30\00:04:54.10
creatures are the only
creatures that have horns
00:04:54.28\00:04:56.49
at birth. And as you can
see, he has horns and they
00:04:56.55\00:04:59.57
are covered the male and
the female that are covered
00:04:59.90\00:05:02.24
with skin. And they're
quite soft and you have
00:05:02.38\00:05:04.89
a big bony prominence
out here. The males get that
00:05:05.01\00:05:07.71
as they get older, it
builds up and that's the way
00:05:07.74\00:05:10.67
they fight for mating
rides. They gather two males,
00:05:10.84\00:05:13.42
will approach each
other, the long necks and
00:05:13.46\00:05:15.50
began to rub and feel
out each other, see how
00:05:15.67\00:05:17.32
strong they are? Didn't
what they decide to fight,
00:05:17.66\00:05:19.75
they just lean off to
one side and began to bang
00:05:20.29\00:05:22.58
each other their
heads. Now, that sounds dumb,
00:05:22.68\00:05:25.38
doesn't it? But if you're
a giraffe and you've a bony
00:05:25.44\00:05:28.09
head like that and
sometimes most usually
00:05:28.20\00:05:31.14
they miss, but if
they strike each other
00:05:31.24\00:05:33.26
sometimes, when the
giraffes is knock to the
00:05:33.56\00:05:35.17
ground unconscious
and after they bang heads
00:05:35.32\00:05:37.87
for a while. They
decide which guy deserves the
00:05:38.00\00:05:40.25
female and the other
guy retreats. So, that's the
00:05:40.39\00:05:43.91
way they do that. Now,
another exciting time is,
00:05:44.05\00:05:46.76
when a baby is born
you can see how tall this
00:05:46.87\00:05:49.62
creature is. And when
the baby emerges from the
00:05:49.86\00:05:52.18
mother's birth
channel. You can see
00:05:54.97\00:05:55.94
that is quite distant to
the ground and rarely is the
00:05:55.95\00:05:58.28
baby injured, okay. It
hits the ground so hard it
00:05:58.48\00:06:01.18
almost bounces and I can
assure you that is not like
00:06:01.42\00:06:04.07
in the delivery room
where baby needs to be spank
00:06:04.20\00:06:06.55
to take his first breathe
that baby gets his breathe
00:06:06.78\00:06:09.41
very quickly. Now,
around the neck, when they
00:06:09.57\00:06:12.48
were here and you could
see them, there is ridge
00:06:12.59\00:06:14.55
around the neck of the
giraffe that is the sixth
00:06:14.67\00:06:17.25
lowest one. The lowest
one the thoracic part of the
00:06:17.52\00:06:21.64
neck that he has to
that vertebrae, it has
00:06:21.88\00:06:24.40
projections, bony
projections that go off
00:06:24.56\00:06:26.50
to the side of it and
attached to that is bones
00:06:26.62\00:06:29.19
and ligaments that's
what holds the neck erect,
00:06:29.22\00:06:32.68
much the same as in
modern day cranes that we
00:06:33.18\00:06:35.50
have, if you see a
crane out here working on the
00:06:35.63\00:06:37.57
construction site, you
will see cables going off
00:06:37.82\00:06:40.14
the side of it that is
the same thing that God use
00:06:40.31\00:06:42.84
with this creature. He
attached those ligaments
00:06:42.89\00:06:45.07
and muscles there that
holds the neck up right,
00:06:45.31\00:06:47.33
so that it can manipulate
go up and down and all
00:06:47.61\00:06:50.11
around. So, the giraffe
is the wonderful creature.
00:06:50.14\00:06:52.48
There is one sad note
that 50 percent of all giraffe
00:06:53.18\00:06:56.73
babies that are born die
to predators the first year
00:06:56.92\00:07:00.62
of their life. Okay, so
it is the dangerous thing to
00:07:00.82\00:07:02.93
be a baby giraffe because
the giraffe doesn't have a
00:07:02.98\00:07:05.48
greater amount, a lot of
ability to defend it they
00:07:05.69\00:07:08.94
can also, they can walk
on you or stomp on you or
00:07:09.03\00:07:12.68
something of that
affect, but the giraffe is a
00:07:12.71\00:07:15.62
tremendous creature, he
has huge feet and he has
00:07:15.83\00:07:19.15
the ability to run at
35 miles an hour. Boys and
00:07:19.18\00:07:22.01
girls, I hope you
enjoy this today. We want to
00:07:22.05\00:07:24.47
thank our friend
Jessie; he has been so helpful,
00:07:24.56\00:07:26.58
so hospitable all the
people here have just helped
00:07:26.74\00:07:29.39
us so much today. And
we hope you have enjoyed
00:07:29.42\00:07:31.91
this. So, this is Ranger
Jim as always telling you,
00:07:32.00\00:07:34.08
don't forget to tell
Jesus that you love him
00:07:34.45\00:07:36.12
because he really does love you.
00:07:36.53\00:07:38.76
Hello, boys and girls.
Welcome to the Kids Time
00:07:56.90\00:07:59.14
construction set. Where
we're building, that is not
00:07:59.21\00:08:03.02
just as its building. God
is building, he is building
00:08:03.12\00:08:06.09
a brand new you.
Everyday, he wants to make
00:08:06.22\00:08:09.26
you more-and-more
like him. So, don't worry
00:08:09.37\00:08:12.88
even when you blow remember
00:08:13.25\00:08:14.34
you're still under construction.

the cause; We're more
than just bodies and brains.
00:08:39.69\00:08:43.36
God made us on
purpose; we're part of a plan.
00:08:44.79\00:08:48.30
He cares and He
knows us by name.

My yes moms and
thank you and please
00:09:12.30\00:09:15.00

make me more patient and
00:09:37.45\00:09:42.20
kind, And help us
to be more like You.
00:09:42.52\00:09:45.93
And make room for all
other children of Yours,
00:09:47.14\00:09:50.70

00:10:10.23\00:10:12.69
I'm King Nebuchadnezzar.
I rule a great kingdom
00:11:33.91\00:11:37.40
called Babylon. Let me
tell you a story. The story
00:11:37.86\00:11:42.38
about some young man,
who are taking captives by
00:11:42.46\00:11:44.91
my armies during the
last war. It was time for me
00:11:45.09\00:11:48.50
to look at the
teenage boys. My soldiers had
00:11:48.56\00:11:50.72
brought from the land of
Israel. I wanted to choose
00:11:50.95\00:11:54.46
between the best of
them, and let them study in
00:11:54.66\00:11:56.37
schools of Babylon. When
the group was brought in,
00:11:56.79\00:12:00.07
I looked at each boy;
four of the boys had a special
00:12:00.22\00:12:03.53
bright look about them.
I could see that they were
00:12:03.74\00:12:06.31
friends; I asked my
servant, what their names
00:12:06.41\00:12:08.55
were? He told me,
they were called Daniel,
00:12:08.65\00:12:11.34
Shadrach, Meshach,
and the Abednego. Maybe
00:12:11.55\00:12:15.70
those four boys should
be a part of my special
00:12:15.79\00:12:17.74
group. I appointed it
my servant said to him move
00:12:17.82\00:12:22.18
the boys away from the
others. Servant, I said,
00:12:22.23\00:12:25.89
take these boys away,
get them cleaned up first.
00:12:25.98\00:12:28.66
They must give them
new clothes and cut their
00:12:29.60\00:12:31.39
hair, when it is time
for meals bring them to the
00:12:31.63\00:12:35.45
Lord dining room. Give
them fruit from my table,
00:12:35.56\00:12:38.64
I want them to eat,
what I eat, I want them to
00:12:39.45\00:12:41.22
drink, what I drink.
This is the way to get strong
00:12:41.27\00:12:44.86
them strong quickly
and be ready for school.
00:12:44.93\00:12:47.11
I thought this was a
nice way to treat these boys,
00:12:48.90\00:12:50.83
who had been captured
during the war. I thought
00:12:50.86\00:12:53.73
they would be happy to
get such good care, but
00:12:53.78\00:12:56.50
there were some things
I didn't know. Something's
00:12:56.66\00:12:59.36
I wouldn't know until
much later. I didn't know
00:12:59.70\00:13:03.68
that these four Hebrew
boys were worried about
00:13:03.82\00:13:05.80
my food and my drinks.
They didn't want to eat
00:13:05.95\00:13:09.08
certain meats. They
didn't want to drink my strong
00:13:09.28\00:13:12.04
drinks. They wanted to
be polite and obedient,
00:13:12.44\00:13:15.18
when my servant
brought them their first meal,
00:13:15.42\00:13:17.58
but they couldn't
forget what their mothers and
00:13:18.58\00:13:20.56
fathers had taught them.
Before they were captured
00:13:20.59\00:13:23.02
in the war and most of
all they wanted to be true to
00:13:23.10\00:13:26.51
their God in heaven. Oh,
I didn't know anything about
00:13:26.57\00:13:30.14
their God in heaven. I
had my own God's, I had
00:13:30.32\00:13:33.21
some little gold
God's, I had some big wooden
00:13:33.50\00:13:35.93
God's, some of my
God's look like animals and
00:13:36.07\00:13:38.38
others like people. I had
lots of God's, but none of
00:13:38.86\00:13:42.45
my God's were in heaven,
they were in the closet or on
00:13:42.76\00:13:45.56
a shelf or under the
bed. Sometimes I even forgot
00:13:45.62\00:13:49.41
about my God's, but
the four Hebrew boys didn't
00:13:49.52\00:13:53.02
forget about their God
in heaven. They talk to him,
00:13:53.15\00:13:57.03
they prayed to him,
they ask their God to help
00:13:57.25\00:13:59.26
them, now what to do.
I didn't know that Daniel
00:13:59.41\00:14:02.64
and his three
friends decided to talk to my
00:14:02.72\00:14:04.78
servant and I didn't
know that the servant
00:14:04.89\00:14:07.51
disobeyed my order to
give the captured boys
00:14:07.66\00:14:09.98
foods and drink from my
table. Please, please they
00:14:10.17\00:14:13.60
said, would it be
alright sir, if we ate something
00:14:13.69\00:14:16.39
else. It wouldn't have
to be anything special just
00:14:16.61\00:14:19.34
some vegetables and
cereal. And instead of the
00:14:19.64\00:14:22.68
strong wine from the
king's table, could we have
00:14:22.89\00:14:25.35
good plain water to
drink. Oh! I didn't know that
00:14:25.72\00:14:28.76
my servant like Daniel
and his three friends very
00:14:28.89\00:14:31.53
much. He wanted to
do, what they were asked?
00:14:31.56\00:14:34.13
But, but he was afraid,
he didn't see how it could
00:14:34.30\00:14:37.41
be done, he knew if
while I was watching and see
00:14:37.44\00:14:41.15
how they were the
captured boys looked they ate
00:14:41.22\00:14:43.26
food from my table, my
servant also knew that if
00:14:43.49\00:14:46.89
these four boys were
thinner than the rest
00:14:47.19\00:14:49.32
because they didn't have
the right food and drink.
00:14:49.50\00:14:52.26
I take his head off,
but these three Hebrew boys,
00:14:53.17\00:14:58.17
four Hebrew boys had a
secret plan. Their God in
00:14:58.62\00:15:01.47
heaven had given them a
good idea. Oh! Sir, just
00:15:01.53\00:15:05.46
give us ten days, they
asked please, please let us
00:15:05.61\00:15:08.54
try plain food and good
water for just ten days.
00:15:08.65\00:15:11.14
Keep watching us each
day to see if we are getting
00:15:11.96\00:15:13.79
thinner or weaker. Look
us over and if do not look
00:15:14.03\00:15:17.72
Good then you can do
whatever you think is best.
00:15:17.84\00:15:20.85
And you know, that
secret plan worked. Oh! I
00:15:22.36\00:15:25.90
never even knew what
was happening instead of
00:15:25.93\00:15:28.82
my getting, them
getting meat and wine.
00:15:29.09\00:15:31.67
Daniel, Shadrach,
Meshach, and Abednego ate
00:15:31.86\00:15:34.37
vegetables, cereal
and water day-by-day my
00:15:34.52\00:15:38.39
servant was assured
that the boys faces would get
00:15:38.55\00:15:41.10
pale and thin. He was
sure they would fall down
00:15:41.25\00:15:44.38
sick, but my servant
was wrong. While at the end
00:15:44.46\00:15:48.87
of those ten days,
those four young boys look
00:15:48.90\00:15:51.47
better happier and
healthier then all the
00:15:51.79\00:15:54.00
others, who would
eating food from my table.
00:15:54.21\00:15:55.92
So, everyday my
servant gave Daniel and his
00:15:56.77\00:15:59.09
friends all the vegetables
and cereal and good plain
00:15:59.29\00:16:02.24
water they wanted. And
when it was time for them
00:16:02.38\00:16:05.10
to go school, they
soon became the smartest
00:16:05.24\00:16:08.37
students in the whole
class. At the end of the three
00:16:08.43\00:16:11.86
years of schooling,
well I have found Daniel,
00:16:12.13\00:16:14.76
Shadrach, Meshach, and
Abednego to go to be the
00:16:14.96\00:16:16.86
finest young man in
my kingdom. In fact, they
00:16:17.24\00:16:20.19
were ten times smarter
then all the Wiseman and
00:16:20.24\00:16:23.45
the magicians in
Babylon. And that's when my
00:16:23.48\00:16:26.66
servant told me all
those things, I didn't know
00:16:26.93\00:16:29.01
before and I was more
than surprised that these
00:16:29.08\00:16:32.22
four young Hebrews
had never eaten food from
00:16:32.37\00:16:35.06
my table. Oh! They
had never tasted strong
00:16:35.21\00:16:39.04
wine, but they had
prayed to their God in heaven
00:16:39.15\00:16:42.34
that he would help
them. I must tell you, I don't
00:16:43.01\00:16:46.45
know anything about
their God, but I think he
00:16:46.53\00:16:49.70
must be very, very
powerful, powerful indeed.
00:16:49.87\00:16:56.35
I'm so glad I
learned to trust Thee,
00:17:15.14\00:17:24.82
Precious Jesus, Savior Friend;
00:17:25.89\00:17:35.33
And I know that
Thou art with me,
00:17:36.36\00:17:46.50
Wilt be with me to the end.
00:17:46.71\00:17:56.09
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
00:17:57.04\00:18:06.56
How I've proved
Him o'er and o'er;
00:18:07.24\00:18:16.32
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
00:18:17.32\00:18:27.10
Oh, for grace to trust Him more!
00:18:27.32\00:18:36.86
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
00:18:37.56\00:18:46.86
How I've proved
Him o'er and o'er;
00:18:47.56\00:18:58.57
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
00:19:00.04\00:19:10.17
Oh, for grace, Oh, for grace,
00:19:10.44\00:19:26.67
Oh, for grace to trust Him more!
00:19:31.60\00:19:54.41
trust Him more!
00:19:54.44\00:20:01.93
Thank you Joyce and
Robert for that beautiful
00:20:14.26\00:20:16.06
song. You know, boys
and girls Joyce and Robert
00:20:16.28\00:20:17.97
are brother and sister
and that family harmony
00:20:18.06\00:20:20.54
it just can be that.
So, thank you so much for
00:20:20.63\00:20:22.87
sharing that song.

but before I read
them. I want to introduce you
00:20:46.49\00:20:49.98
to a very special
guest that here today.
00:20:50.01\00:20:52.40
And he is the friend
of mine and his name is
00:20:52.96\00:20:54.35
Ryan Lively. Thank
you, Ryan for joining me
00:20:54.65\00:20:56.94
on Kids Time. And
you know, I really like
00:20:56.99\00:21:00.03
the story you were
telling me about how much
00:21:00.10\00:21:02.39
you love Jesus and
that you pray to Jesus.
00:21:02.53\00:21:04.52
And you don't stop
praying, when you're in school
00:21:04.78\00:21:06.77
do you? Yep. So, can
you tell me now at lunch,
00:21:06.82\00:21:09.00
we always say our
blessing you know, in our
00:21:09.51\00:21:11.76
blessing boys and girls
is what we are praying, we
00:21:12.00\00:21:14.03
ask God thanking for
us food. Tell me about
00:21:14.11\00:21:18.14
what happened in
school? Well, when I,
00:21:18.36\00:21:21.40
it was in kindergarten
and I said, when I started
00:21:22.28\00:21:26.64
going school, I
would say my blessing at
00:21:26.77\00:21:29.04
lunch and after. That
when you said, you would
00:21:29.85\00:21:32.85
say your blessing at
lunch. Did you bow your
00:21:32.96\00:21:34.89
head to pray? Yeah,
bowed my head, close my
00:21:35.07\00:21:38.68
eyes and after a while
they would start asking
00:21:38.71\00:21:42.83
me what I was
doing. Your classmates.
00:21:42.86\00:21:44.77
My classmates would
start asking me, what I was
00:21:45.91\00:21:47.43
doing. And what did you
said? I told them that I
00:21:47.64\00:21:50.36
was saying my blessing
and thanking Jesus for the
00:21:50.39\00:21:53.02
food. And they
asked what that was and I
00:21:53.13\00:21:58.86
explain to him that
Jesus is love and helping
00:21:59.12\00:22:01.25
me, to thank him for
a food blessing their
00:22:01.28\00:22:04.05
blessings. And so that,
and so this, and so after
00:22:04.28\00:22:09.25
little while later,
they ask, ask me, student ask
00:22:09.40\00:22:12.99
me, could you
teach me how to say the
00:22:13.13\00:22:16.06
blessing. Isn't that wonderful.
00:22:16.32\00:22:17.80
Then some more and some more and
00:22:17.83\00:22:19.90
better all my class was
saying the prayer at lunch
00:22:19.93\00:22:24.89
every week. Well,
praise the Lord. You see
00:22:25.12\00:22:27.05
boys and girls, it's,
it's not always easy to
00:22:27.17\00:22:29.70
stand up and do the
right thing. And that part
00:22:29.86\00:22:31.69
would have been
really easy for Ryan to sat
00:22:31.72\00:22:33.42
there and do quickly
pray with his eyes and, did
00:22:33.51\00:22:35.55
you just think in
front my food so that
00:22:35.64\00:22:36.69
they wouldn't know,
he was praying, right.
00:22:36.88\00:22:38.38
But instead he bowed
his head you know, that
00:22:38.70\00:22:41.27
reminds me somebody in
the Bible that did that.
00:22:41.45\00:22:43.10
Do you remember?
Daniel that prayed out in
00:22:43.92\00:22:46.79
the open, when he
wasn't supposed to be praying.
00:22:46.95\00:22:48.49
That reminds me a
lot about Daniel and look
00:22:48.71\00:22:50.63
you were able to
witness to all your classmates.
00:22:50.72\00:22:52.78
That is just so
wonderful boys and girls. And
00:22:53.10\00:22:55.11
you can do that too
that something you can do
00:22:55.14\00:22:56.99
to share Jesus. Now,
there is also time on the
00:22:57.06\00:23:00.51
playground that you
were able to share Jesus.
00:23:00.69\00:23:02.17
What, what happen
there? Well, there was, there
00:23:02.38\00:23:07.20
was some people that
were picking on this girl.
00:23:07.26\00:23:11.12
And you know, they're
picking on her because she
00:23:11.46\00:23:13.96
was blind in one
eye. And I, I explained to
00:23:14.01\00:23:18.92
them the, that,
that's not what Jesus wants
00:23:19.31\00:23:22.76
us to do that, it's
wrong to pick on people just
00:23:22.82\00:23:25.96
because they can't do
something or something,
00:23:26.10\00:23:28.35
They don't look just right.
00:23:28.38\00:23:29.44
Did they stop
picking on her ? No, not at
00:23:29.47\00:23:33.78
first, but then they,
when they had a chance to
00:23:33.81\00:23:38.01
think about it they
stopped. And then they realized
00:23:38.19\00:23:41.45
that's not what Jesus want
them to do. Oh! Well, praise
00:23:42.55\00:23:45.22
the Lord and also
just, there was another
00:23:45.25\00:23:48.10
situation you have
had some heart surgery and
00:23:48.70\00:23:50.94
you were able to
witness in the hospital that,
00:23:50.97\00:23:53.10
that you turned that
your you know, misfortune
00:23:53.45\00:23:56.66
of having heart
problems and to a blessing to
00:23:56.70\00:23:59.60
others how, can you
tell us how you did that?
00:23:59.74\00:24:01.58
Well, when I was
going to have some surgery
00:24:03.51\00:24:07.61
one time, I asked all the
doctors and nurses to pray
00:24:07.80\00:24:11.16
with me and. Praise
the Lord. They prayed with
00:24:11.24\00:24:14.07
me and, and, and
then sometimes when I have
00:24:14.22\00:24:17.47
my checkups now they
asked me about Jesus.
00:24:17.59\00:24:21.57
Oh! That's
wonderful. Well, Ryan thank you,
00:24:21.95\00:24:25.15
for, for sharing your,
the ways that you share
00:24:25.27\00:24:27.61
Jesus with us. I
wanna, just have time for a
00:24:27.82\00:24:30.07
quick letter boys and
girls. This one from South
00:24:30.31\00:24:32.12
Africa and this one
says, Dear, Brenda. I love
00:24:32.25\00:24:37.81
watching Kids Time
and I'm 9-years-old and
00:24:37.94\00:24:40.19
doing home school. And
we live in our farm outside
00:24:40.32\00:24:43.04
Riversdale in the
Western Cape of South
00:24:43.26\00:24:45.13
Africa. I love Jesus
very much and I play the
00:24:45.27\00:24:48.38
trumpet. We showed
that we love Jesus, when
00:24:48.57\00:24:50.82
we help a women,
who couldn't fit a wheel
00:24:51.04\00:24:52.60
bar went to the boot,
boot of her car. I don't
00:24:52.78\00:24:55.92
know what that is, but
it says we offer to take a
00:24:55.95\00:24:58.59
home for her, in our
double cab pickup. And
00:24:58.62\00:25:01.99
she was very
grateful. And it says, love and
00:25:02.19\00:25:05.07
regards, regards
Standor and it says, PS my
00:25:05.28\00:25:10.55
mom wrote this letter
to help me, as I'm still
00:25:10.61\00:25:12.78
learning English.
Well, thank you so much for
00:25:12.94\00:25:15.54
your letter. I
appreciate hearing from you. And
00:25:15.59\00:25:18.63
I, I just love
getting the letters from you
00:25:19.56\00:25:21.81
boys and girls. I
want to thank you Ryan for
00:25:21.94\00:25:23.72
being on the program
today. You have had so
00:25:23.87\00:25:25.76
many wonderful ways to
witness, it sounds like
00:25:25.89\00:25:27.92
you always find a way
to introduce Jesus and
00:25:28.32\00:25:30.68
wherever you go,
don't you? That's right. You
00:25:30.99\00:25:32.88
know, and even with
the little girl that you're
00:25:32.91\00:25:35.35
telling me about
earlier, would you didn't have
00:25:35.48\00:25:38.25
a chance to share with
the boys and girls, but
00:25:38.32\00:25:39.93
you stopped them
from picking on her. And I
00:25:39.96\00:25:41.62
was really proud of
you for that that makes
00:25:41.65\00:25:43.20
Jesus so happy boys
and girls. Whenever we
00:25:43.32\00:25:46.36
stand up and do the
right thing, it makes Jesus
00:25:46.64\00:25:48.88
so proud of it,
doesn't it? When we have a way
00:25:49.00\00:25:51.44
of sharing him, our
actions with everything we
00:25:51.47\00:25:53.72
do throughout the day,
whether it's the way we
00:25:53.83\00:25:56.06
behave towards our
classmates at school or if
00:25:56.47\00:25:59.17
it's the way that
we, we pray in public and
00:25:59.61\00:26:01.48
we're not ashamed of
Jesus, we should never be
00:26:01.60\00:26:03.64
ashamed of Jesus,
shouldn't we? Well, thank
00:26:03.87\00:26:05.79
you, very much Ryan
for being here. I just,
00:26:05.82\00:26:07.96
I want you to
encourage you to keep on sharing
00:26:08.47\00:26:10.40
Jesus, okay. Well,
that's all the time we have
00:26:10.66\00:26:13.21
today boys and
girls. Remember wherever
00:26:13.47\00:26:15.05
you're, wherever you go,
00:26:15.22\00:26:16.48
remember its Kids
Time to share Jesus.
