00:03 It's time to share there's a world out there,
00:07 Looking for a friend like Jesus. It's time to share
00:11 there's a world out there; let's tell them
00:14 that He loves us so. Let's tell them that He
00:18 loves us so. Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time.
00:24 Hi, boys and girls, this fleece feels so soft,
00:29 I love the feel that against my face and it's
00:32 softness in my hands. Do you know where
00:35 fleece comes from? That's right. It comes
00:38 from an animal and that animal is called the sheep.
00:41 Now did you know in Bible time many, many
00:43 people owned sheep and once a year the
00:46 sheep were shaved? That means the
00:48 shepherds, they would take very sharp knife
00:51 because they didn't have electrical crimpers
00:52 back then, and carefully they would cut the wool
00:55 from the sheep's backs. Well, then the sheep
00:59 would feel all light and frisky and they jump
01:01 around in a new summer outfits.
01:04 But, the fleeces are the wool, it is we often here
01:06 called would be used from many purposes.
01:09 It might be turn into wool and thread and
01:11 then woven into a woolen cloth.
01:13 Then the cloth would be fashioned into the
01:15 cloths for people to wear. Do you know the
01:18 fleece could also be turned into blankets to
01:20 keep you warm, big blankets that throw over
01:22 the back of donkeys or soft wool blankets to
01:25 wrap a baby in? One thing about fleece
01:28 though is that it observes water almost like a sponge?
01:32 I'm gonna show you something. You just
01:33 watch for a minute. I've got a sponge here.
01:36 Isn't it a cute little sponge? And let's
01:38 soaked in the water right here, can you see
01:40 that, and we just see what happens here.
01:44 Look at that, and can you see that? It soaked
01:47 up all the water, didn't it? See look at how
01:50 much water that soaked up. Now let's take, here
01:53 is the corner of the fleece, and let's took the
01:55 fleece in. Can you see that and look at this,
02:01 it soaked up water too, didn't it? But you know
02:04 our Bible story today is about a man who knew
02:06 a lot of our sheep, and a lot about fleece and he
02:11 was about learn a whole lot more of our God.
02:15 But, first Ranger Jim is going to
02:17 tell us about an Egyptian fruit bat.
02:26 Hi, boys and girls, Ranger Jim saying
02:28 welcome to "Nature Time." We are glad
02:30 to that you can join us today where beautiful
02:31 Silver Springs in Florida. We have our
02:34 friend Jesse with us today and he has a
02:35 friend to tell us about. What is this Jesse we have?
02:38 This is an Egyptian fruit bat.
02:40 Isn't that beauty? He is gorgeous and
02:42 actually looks like a little poppy dog.
02:44 These are the only flying winged mammals
02:46 in the world and really they compromise one
02:49 quarter of all mammal life on earth. Wonderful!
02:51 And you will see the eyes. The eyes are very
02:53 large. Here in Florida we have bats and have
02:56 a little appended, which comes of the nose.
02:58 They middle and swing back and forth to the
03:00 insects are lies in Florida that we all
03:02 know how bad mosquito are in Florida.
03:04 They eat 1,000 mosquitoes in a one hour. Alright.
03:07 This particular bat if you learn how larges
03:09 eyes are, yes, it lies on it's eyesight more than
03:12 it's echo location that little nose leaf, so what
03:15 they do is they can actually see a berry size
03:17 object from one hundred yards away.
03:19 Wonderful! So, and of course when
03:20 they eat be berries the droppings, re-propagate
03:23 new trees for. So it's almost like Johnny
03:25 appleseed . They keep on growing these trees force.
03:28 Wonderful! What' really unique
03:30 about these animals are the wings. Just feel that
03:32 a fewer ranger Jim. Beautiful!
03:34 It feels almost like latex, doesn't it?
03:35 They are really does. This is the thumb,
03:37 believe or not. These are actually fingers
03:41 and they come down. Now this particular bat
03:43 has wingspan about 12 inches. Now bats range
03:46 in size from a tiny bamboo bee bat, which
03:49 is only about the size of the penny or jelly bean,
03:52 only up to a giant flying fox.
03:54 Right. Six feet wings span is
03:57 big as our Bald Eagles in North America. Amazing!
03:59 So they are huge and very tiny. They are
04:01 very, very important to the environment and
04:03 they re-propagate rainforest. They can
04:06 control life-flying insects, so right here in
04:08 Florida I specially like the bats beautiful little
04:11 animals. You can see that face again, looks
04:13 just like little Tulip. He is just gorgeous.
04:16 Now boys and girls you are seeing that our
04:18 friend Jesse is wearing a glove because he
04:21 holding the bat and the bat will bite and
04:23 defense himself, but many people are
04:25 fearful of a bat. A bat gets in your house and
04:28 people call up fire department and the
04:29 police department and everyone else, and they
04:32 almost faint from fear. You don't have to do
04:35 that. The bat has a very bad reputation from
04:38 some movies, the Vampire bats that suck
04:40 blood and all those kind of things.
04:42 The bat is a very, very friendly creature.
04:45 Of course, if you see a bat on the ground or if
04:47 you see a bat on the corner of your house
04:49 you shouldn't go upon touch it because the bat
04:51 could bite you, okay, and it is possible for the
04:54 bat to transmit rabies. And so as with many
04:58 other things that ranger Jim talks to you about
04:59 you should never go upon touch it.
05:01 Go and get mummy and daddy or someone or
05:03 adult come and look at it and see it.
05:05 And I would give you advise for adults who
05:07 are watching if you have a bat in the house,
05:10 try to get it upon a corner and take a towel
05:12 and don't hurt the creature just lay the
05:14 towel up to it very gently and then reach to
05:18 the towel. They won't bite you through the
05:19 towel and take it out of doors and release it.
05:23 And as our friend Jesse was talking about the
05:25 echo system. Can you imagine a bat flying
05:27 along he is emitting little tiny sound ways
05:30 that are going out and striking the insects then
05:32 coming back to him, in his computer that is his
05:36 brain he calculates the distance and closes
05:39 inward and reaches out and plucks it out of the
05:42 air and he has been doing it for thousand
05:45 and thousand of years since God first created
05:48 them. We think that we are on the top of the
05:50 line. We are the top of the chain and we are
05:52 doing all these marvelous things now, the bats
05:55 have been doing it for many, many years as far
05:57 as radar or sonar. Now tell me these bats they
06:01 eat fruit, yes, and thanks of this nature so
06:03 they are valuable pollinators as well.
06:05 Very much, they are almost solely
06:07 responsible for pollination. And many plants they
06:09 are that and the bats, the bees and the things of
06:12 that nature and boys and girls also as a
06:15 naturalist one of the most ask question
06:17 I received people say well tell me ranger Jim
06:20 why did God make mosquitoes?
06:22 Now, that a good question, isn't it?
06:24 The mosquito is also like this bat,
06:27 a wonderful pollinator if you look at a
06:29 mosquito very carefully, very delicate gauze
06:33 wings, very delicate legs any other creature,
06:36 any other tiny bee would light on tiny
06:39 blossom refine in the woods or out here in
06:41 nature would crush it to the ground.
06:43 But, the mosquito flies along gently takes from
06:46 it nectar and spreads the pollen that's way we got
06:49 original, they were pollinators, because we
06:51 have misused and abuse the earth. The mosquito
06:55 when she is pregnant, only the female who is
06:57 pregnant bites you. She can't find enough
06:59 protein in that blossom so she goes looking for
07:01 the places. She flies up to my Jesse says,
07:04 thank you very much for your protein.
07:07 Boys and girls we hope you've enjoyed learning
07:10 about the bat today as always ranger Jim
07:13 telling you, don't forget to tell Jesus that you
07:16 love him because he really does love you.
07:26 Attention! March time march.
07:33 God's got an army marching through the land
07:37 Deliverance in their song, with healing in their hands
07:41 Everlasting joy and gladness in their heart,
07:45 and in this army I've got a part.

07:50 In the world today Dressed in splendid armor
07:54 They're in full array The host of darkness trembles
07:58 As we walk their way There's a great and

08:35 and in this army I've got a part.
08:47 Endure our hardship like a good soldier
08:49 as Jesus Christ, second Timothy 2:3.
09:00 I love to cook, but I guess that's not too
09:02 surprising since my whole family cooks.
09:05 My mom cooks, my aunt Linda cooks,
09:07 my aunt Brenda cooks, and my nanny cooks.
09:11 But, today I'm gonna share with you one of
09:12 my auntie Linda's recipes', Scramble tofu.
09:17 Well, here are ingredients.
09:19 1 lb firm water-packed tofu, rinsed and drained
09:24 1 pkg. mori-nu tofu, firm or extra firm
09:28 1/4 cup of brewer's yeast flakes
09:32 1 ½ tbsp. of McKay's chicken style seasoning
09:36 2 tsp. of McKay's beef style seasoning
09:41 1 tsp. of vegesal seasoning
09:45 1/4 tsp. of garlic powder 1 of bunch green
09:49 onions, sliced 1/4 to ½ cup of water tortilla shells
09:56 And we're gonna start with our green onions
09:58 and water. Go and put these in just some more.
10:09 We turned that up a little bit. Get it some
10:11 more in, then we're go over to our to tofu and
10:15 this is water, this is water based tofu and it's
10:20 lit bit spongier than regular tofu and this is
10:25 it just, it's more like a cottage cheese kind of
10:27 and I have already got this chopped up and
10:29 ready to go in here. This is the mori-nu tofu
10:32 and this is why it looks like when you buy this
10:35 package and so smoother kind of tofu, and so,
10:40 is your recipe calls for a mori-nu or what if you
10:42 calls for it's kind then you need use it because
10:45 it will probably mess up your recipe if you don't.
10:48 So you can go ahead and take this mori-nu,
10:52 put it with the tofu, smash it up a little bit,
11:04 okay, then we're gonna just add all your
11:11 seasonings. But it doesn't matter what
11:14 goes in first or anything. You just kind of dump
11:16 it all in, put that in this okay.
11:29 Rest of them and all these out of the way,
11:38 we turn this up a little. Mix it all up real good.
11:44 You wanna make sure it's not too many
11:46 humongous chance, but some are okay.
11:52 This all mixed okay, almost, okay, there
12:07 we go, looks pretty good. So, looks like our green
12:16 onions are about done, so go ahead and dump
12:19 the tofu into the green onions.
12:32 And that all out, stir it up, and you want to let
12:47 this sit on the stove for about 15 minutes or so
12:53 but you don't really have time to stay for 15
12:57 to 20 minutes. Well, I let this slip. So I'm just
13:00 gonna show you which you do, you're done,
13:03 when all is done and cooked we need to get
13:05 into it, and right over here,
13:17 and get into it and put a little bit of your
13:22 mixture, the tofu mixture into here, like this.
13:33 Now have to do from here is pretty much up
13:37 to you, you can be creative, maybe put
13:38 some avocado or some slice tomatoes or some
13:41 Tofu cheese, just like. Go ahead and put some
13:45 sauce on this inside or you go like inside.
13:51 I'm just gonna put some Olives of sauce,
13:52 because I love Olives and we gotten, some
13:57 Olives in top. Okay, now we're gonna roll it
14:08 up, just like this and flip it over. But some sauce
14:18 set down the middle to make it look pretty and
14:21 creative. So, right in the middle and some just
14:24 drips some sauce leave some on either side.
14:30 It looks, it looks pretty and creative.
14:33 You wanna add special touch, you can add
14:35 some olives and olives we good on it to, tofu.
14:44 Doesn't now it looks delicious? Smells good
14:48 too, I bet you get almost smell at home.
14:51 Well, until next time keep cooking and eat healthy.
15:04 Hello, children. Can you see the Midianites
15:06 running pass here? My men and I have been
15:09 searching them since dawn. God has given us
15:11 a great victory and to think that God used me
15:15 get in and just 300 men to destroy all the army
15:19 of Midianites. Would you mind if I rest here
15:21 a moment I would love to share with you what
15:23 God has done for Israel? You see Midianites
15:27 were attacking Israel for sometime, destroying
15:30 everything that we had; our cattle, our food and
15:34 even our houses. But, one day God spoke to
15:37 me and he said that he is going to deliver Israel
15:40 by my hand. I wanted to make sure that I heard
15:43 him right. So prayed and asked God for a
15:46 sign. I prayed God if you are with me please
15:50 give me a sign. I put fleece of wool, sheep's
15:53 wool outdoors overnight and if they do folds on
15:57 the fleece alone and the ground who remain dry
16:00 then I will know that you are with me.
16:03 In the morning when I've got up I found the
16:05 fleece wet to his dew and the ground around
16:08 it was dry. When I took the fleece and wring it
16:11 out I feel it bull up with water. But then
16:15 I thought it will naturally draws water.
16:19 So may be I should have prayed for the opposite.
16:22 So pray to God again. Please do not be angry
16:25 with me but let me try just one more time.
16:28 This time let the fleece be dry and all the
16:31 ground to wet. Next morning I got up
16:35 and found the fleece dry and the ground around
16:37 it was wet, so then I knew that God was with me.
16:42 Israelites was scattered all over from the
16:44 multitude of the Midianites. But, I started giving an
16:47 army anyway. Only we've 32, 000 men
16:50 against multitude of the Midianites that no one
16:53 could number. But then God spoke to me and
16:57 said you have too many men, too many I said,
17:02 how can it be too many. There is no way for us
17:04 to defeat them but he said, yes you have too
17:07 many Israelites may become to proud.
17:10 They might think that they have defeated
17:11 Midianites from the Rome. So go and
17:14 announce to everyone if there was any one
17:17 scared they could go home. My heart was so sad.
17:22 When I saw 22,000 men leave and only 10, 000
17:27 remained. I said now I have no army to fight
17:30 the Midianites with. But, then God spoke to
17:33 me again and to my surprise he said, you
17:36 still have too many men. Still too many
17:39 I said, how can it be too many. I have almost
17:42 no armies especially compared to the
17:44 Midianites, but he said, yes, you have too many.
17:48 Go to the river and I will show you which
17:50 men you keep and which you will send home.
17:54 So I went to the river. God told me to keep the
17:56 man that who would pick up water with their
17:58 hands and bring it to their mouth, and those
18:00 who kneel down to drink I was to send home.
18:04 And after I have separated all the men,
18:07 only 300 were left with me. The rest I had sent
18:10 home. Those who had picked up water with
18:12 their hands were so eager to fight.
18:14 They didn't want to stop even to drink.
18:17 They were always looking ahead to the
18:19 battle of the Lord. So, we were campaigning
18:21 now not far from Midianites camp.
18:24 I gathered all my men together and said,
18:26 God has given the Midianites into our
18:29 hands, so listen to me carefully and do as I say.
18:33 Each of you is going to have one torch, one
18:36 pitcher to hide the torching, and one
18:39 trumpet and at my command, you can the
18:41 break the pitcher willing the torches
18:43 flame, blow the trumpet and shout; "The sword
18:47 of the Lord and of Gideon!" So all of my
18:51 300 soldiers are on the camp of the Midianites
18:53 and at my command, 300 pitchers were
18:55 broken, 300 torches were raise high up,
18:59 300 trumpet were sounded and 300 of
19:01 God's braves soldiers shouted, "the sword of
19:04 the LORD and for Gideon!" Midianites
19:07 were scarred. They thought millions were
19:10 surrounded their camp. They were confused
19:13 because the spirit of the Lord towards with us.
19:16 They started fighting against each other and
19:18 did know where to run as we came closure and
19:21 closure they were fewer and fewer of Midianites
19:24 left, and the fewer that were left too running away.
19:28 So, listen boys and girls, I learned from
19:30 all these that God doesn't need bless
19:32 numbers to win his battles because the
19:34 battle is his. God is all-powerful and if we
19:39 are with Him who can be against us.
19:42 God can protect us even when we're out number.
19:45 Oh! I think I see my men over there I better
19:48 go and catch up to them and find handful of
19:51 those scared Midianites that were running away.
19:53 Goodbye, may God be with you.
20:11 Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return
20:17 And come with singing unto Zion,
20:22 And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.
20:30 Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return
20:36 And come with singing unto Zion,
20:41 And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.
20:50 They shall obtain gladness and joy,
21:00 And sorrow and mourning shall flee away.
21:09 Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return
21:14 And come with singing unto Zion,
21:19 And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.
21:29 And everlasting joy shall be upon their head.
21:48 Thank you, Emily Beth and Chelsea for that
21:49 beautiful song. Well, boys and girls, I would
21:52 like to introduce you to a couple of guests here
21:54 in Kids Time, this is our friend Jordan, and
21:57 I thank you for being here Jordan and Elizabeth. Hi.
22:00 And you came all the way from Wisconsin to
22:04 be here. And I am really glad that you could be
22:06 here and Elizabeth you had a situation you
22:09 would tell me about your friend came over
22:10 to your house. Can you tell the boys and girls
22:12 about that? Sure, well, I had a
22:16 friend that whenever he went to school the kids
22:21 were mean to him and he wanted to get even,
22:24 so I just said, no that's not what Jesus wanted
22:27 you to do, so you just be kind. So the next
22:30 morning he went to school and he was kind
22:33 to them and they start being mean to him.
22:36 You know that's what how Jesus wants us to
22:38 act as in that. He wants us to be kind even if
22:41 these people that are being mean to us boys
22:44 and girls, he wants us to be kind others, doesn't he?
