00:03 It's time to share there's a world out
00:06 there 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. 00:25 Hi, boys and girls. Do you think I'm wearing 00:27 dark glasses because I'm in bright sunshine 00:29 right now? Or do you think maybe I'm wearing 00:32 them because the television lights are just 00:34 so bright. Well, you know what both of those 00:37 reasons could be true. But I'm actually wearing 00:40 these dark glasses because they make me think of 00:43 a man in the Bible who was born blind. 00:46 And these glasses are so dark, 00:47 I mean I can hardly see through them, 00:50 but they make me feel a little bit like a blind 00:52 person to feel. But you know what I'm 00:55 going to take them off and ah, 00:58 that so much better. Do you know it's just 01:00 wonderful to be able to see all the wonderful 01:03 things that God has made? 01:04 Like the beautiful colors in these pink flowers 01:08 and we've got purple flowers and yellow flowers, 01:11 I just love the beautiful colorful world that 01:15 God made. But our Bible story today tells 01:18 of a man who had never been able to see any 01:20 of these things because he couldn't see 01:22 anything at all. Can you imagine, 01:26 a tiny little baby that has never been able to see 01:29 his own mother, or even his own little 01:31 toes or his fingers, his life was hard, 01:34 and was very hard until, until something 01:37 wonderful happened. Now you'll hear all 01:40 about it just a little later in our story, 01:43 but I can't resist telling you that Jesus changed 01:46 his life completely, inside and out. 01:50 Now, you don't have to be blind to have Jesus 01:53 change your life. Boys and girls, 01:56 I really want you to remember that Jesus loves 01:59 you just the way you are, and He is going 02:02 to help you be the very best that you can be. 02:06 Well, now Ranger Jim is going to tell 02:07 us about some Spanish moss. 02:16 Hi, boys and girls, Ranger Jim saying welcome 02:19 to Nature Time. We're glad you can join us. 02:21 What's this we have here behind me? 02:23 Have you ever seen this before? 02:25 Some Indians called this Tree Hair, 02:28 because it looks like his hair going on a tree. 02:30 When the French people came this country 02:32 they'd been particularly care for the Spanish 02:34 people that were out exploring and was 02:37 competition for them, so they called it the 02:39 "Spanish Beard". They said that the tree 02:41 has a Spanish beard hanging down, 02:44 and so the Spanish people didn't like that. 02:46 So they started calling it the "French Beard". 02:49 And so what we have today, 02:50 sort of a compromise, we call it 02:52 'Spanish moss'. And its beautiful stuff, isn't it? 02:55 The Spanish moss is not parasitic, 02:57 that is it's not a plant like Holly or Mistletoe 03:00 or something like that, that attaches itself to 03:02 a tree, then puts roots into the tree and 03:04 takes nourishment from the tree. 03:07 And so the Spanish moss only uses a tree or 03:11 a living object to support itself. 03:15 It hangs from the branches as you can see 03:17 beautiful, graceful orchids that are hanging down. 03:19 It has the ability to absorb 18 times its own 03:23 weight in moisture. The problem that people 03:26 have, when I tell them that the Spanish moss 03:28 is not parasitic, they say Jim I know that 03:30 the tree that had all the Spanish moss on it 03:33 was almost dying and when I took up all 03:35 the Spanish moss, it immediately started 03:37 growing a new. It was like a new tree. 03:39 Well, what happens when you have Spanish moss 03:41 over a tree and it rains, then the rain is all 03:45 collected and absorbed by the Spanish moss. 03:48 And so your tree doesn't get enough moisture. 03:51 So if you have a year when you have a drought 03:54 that tree that has Spanish moss on it that 03:56 is true, it will begin to die before any tree 03:59 that doesn't have. The solution is simple. 04:02 You take off the Spanish moss or trim it 04:04 back, take off most of it. 04:06 Because if you have Spanish moss hanging on 04:08 a tree, literally tons of it hanging on a tree, 04:11 and you have a big rainstorm, then there are 04:14 tons of additional weight on that tree. 04:17 Even at times I have seen branches broken 04:19 on a tree. The tree was perfectly healthy and 04:21 normal, but all the Spanish moss hanging on 04:24 there absorbs all of the moisture, 04:26 hence all the additional weight. 04:27 So, trim the tree back. It looks better anyway, 04:29 if you'll trim it back. And I also have friends 04:32 of mine, older friends who say now Jim, 04:34 you say that Spanish moss doesn't grow on 04:36 telephone wires? And I tell them that's true, 04:38 but remember when I say that it doesn't mean 04:41 that there can't be Spanish moss hanging on 04:43 a branch and appear to have been growing there. 04:46 There is a bunch moss that looks something like 04:48 Spanish moss, but it doesn't have, 04:50 nearly as long as Tendrils as does the 04:52 Spanish moss. But Spanish moss can fall 04:55 on to a branch or fence or something like that 04:59 will continue to grow, because it absorbs 05:01 enough moisture and nutrients from the air 05:05 to support itself. And so Spanish moss 05:08 doesn't propagate itself any other way then 05:10 through seeds. It has tiny little blossoms on it, 05:14 and the blossoms mature into the seeds, 05:17 and then when the seeds mature and they fall, 05:19 they're caught in the wind. They have a little 05:20 sail on them, many seeds have that. 05:23 Have you seen the dandelion seeds in the lawn? 05:25 Yes, I'm sure you've seen them. 05:26 When you pick them up and you blow, 05:28 what happens, out they go with their little 05:30 parachutes and they're carried all over your 05:31 neighbor's yard and you neighbor probably not 05:34 that very happy that you would do that, 05:35 but that's what happen to the Spanish moss seed. 05:38 It simply glides in the wind when it comes to 05:40 another tree happens to catching the bark, 05:43 then it begins to take nourishment, 05:46 and it begins to grow and grow and grow and 05:49 so it spreads from tree to tree. 05:51 So, Spanish moss is a very, very interesting 05:55 subject to study. Mini birds use Spanish moss 05:58 for building their nests. Mockingbirds and 06:00 cardinals and just a moment before we 06:02 started taping that was a beautiful cardinal 06:05 singing here and he still singing over there 06:07 somewhere, I don't know if you can hear him 06:08 or not, but the cardinal also and Mini birds 06:12 like small Screech-owls and things of that 06:14 nature live inside the Spanish moss. 06:17 There can be big column of Spanish moss 06:19 hanging down like this. The Screech-owl looks 06:21 that all over very carefully. 06:23 In fact, the group that we're looking at, 06:24 this mass of Spanish moss that we're looking at, 06:27 I was showing some friends last year bought 06:29 them down and I went up and showed them 06:30 how firm it was hanging on the tree. 06:33 When I reached up and took it and just shook 06:34 it a little bit a Screech-owl flew right, 06:37 almost in my face flew out. 06:39 And so mini birds are roost in that. 06:41 So, the Spanish moss in nature really makes 06:44 thing look beautiful. It's hanging on the 06:46 cypress tree, an old tree, or whatever tree 06:49 it might be, it just dresses it up. 06:52 And I love to bring my friends here to see the 06:54 Spanish moss up and down and if I had something 06:57 in my hand that you could see its gray silver 06:59 with some green in it and when you hold it in 07:01 your hand, it's very heavy. It looks like very 07:04 light and delicate, but it is very heavy 07:07 because of its moisture content. 07:09 So, this is another subject boys and girls that 07:11 we can study and learn about and learn to 07:14 praise our Heavenly Father. 07:15 Because as I always say, 07:16 He made it right the first time, 07:18 didn't He? Boys and girls don't forget to tell 07:21 Jesus that you love him because 07:22 He really does love you. 07:34 Krista, what do you looking at? 07:37 Uncle buddy, I wasn't looking 07:39 at anything. I was praying. 07:42 How could you be praying? Your eyes were 07:43 wide open, and your lips weren't moving, 07:46 and I didn't hear any sounds. 07:48 Well, sometimes I just woke up 07:50 and Jesus can hear my thoughts. 07:53 Well, if Jesus can hear your thoughts, 07:56 we need to keep looking at up to him 08:07 Lift your eyes to Jesus, look on His lovely face 08:14 Lift your eyes to Jesus and feel His warm embrace 08:21 When the world becomes too much for you to bear 08:29 Look up and Jesus will be there 08:37 Lift your eyes and Jesus will be there. 08:44 Lift your eyes to Jesus, look on His lovely face 08:52 Lift your eyes to Jesus and feel His warm embrace 08:59 When the world becomes too much for you to bear 09:06 Look up and Jesus will be there 09:14 Lift your eyes and Jesus will be there. 09:22 Lift your eyes to Jesus, look on His lovely face 09:29 Lift your eyes to Jesus and feel His warm embrace 09:37 When the world becomes too much for you to bear 09:44 Look up and Jesus will be there 09:52 Lift your eyes and Jesus will be there. 10:08 Hi, I really wanted to make something special 10:10 for my brother because he is such a good 10:13 big brother, and he is always looking out 10:15 for me. Well, he loves pumpkin pie, 10:18 and he loves muffins. So, I decided to mix it 10:21 together well minus the pie, but ... 10:24 So, today we're making Pumpkin Muffins. 10:27 Let me read the recipe for you. 11:07 Now, we're going to start with our dry 11:08 ingredients and I have a quick oats here 11:11 and put in a bowl and flour, 11:17 and our Florida crystals, and our baking powder, 11:26 and baking soda and salt. 11:31 Now, these are Pumpkin spice, and it is, 11:36 it smells really good. It smells kind of like a 11:39 pumpkin pie taste, and we're gonna put that 11:41 in and then mix it all up, like that. 11:51 Now I have our pumpkin, we're gonna put in, 11:56 okay. Now, ever since I was younger my 12:02 favorite kind of pie has been pumpkin pie. 12:04 And when I came up with this recipe, 12:06 I was so excited because it tastes kind of 12:08 like pumpkin pie, except its muffins. 12:12 Putting our vanilla and this is our egg replacer 12:16 equivalent of one egg. And I already have 12:18 that mixed up for you, put that out, okay. 12:27 We're gonna mix that all up. Here we go. 12:36 Now, in case my brother loves pumpkin pie 12:40 and I really hope that he like these muffins. 12:43 I'm sure he will. They are delicious. 12:45 You should try them too. 12:48 Let's get this all mixed up. 12:50 Now, once it look's about like this you're 12:52 gonna note any muffins you don't want to 12:54 mix them too much because they'll get 12:56 too dry, and so it looks about like this. 13:00 I have a pie tin, a muffin tin, sorry and it 13:04 has yeast foils in it, and if you don't have 13:07 those foils you can spray it. 13:09 It was a non-stick cooking spray and that will 13:11 work too. I'm just gonna put it on a little bit 13:14 in here. Now, since these are muffins don't 13:17 rise as much as other muffins, they do rise, 13:19 but not a lot. You're gonna; 13:23 you can fill almost till the top like that. 13:27 Now don't, you don't want to mess down 13:28 anything. I'm gonna do one more for you. 13:33 In here, just like that. And I'm gonna take 13:37 some Florida crystals and just, 13:39 you can sprinkle on how much you want over 13:41 the top. Just like that, mix it just little 13:46 bit sweeter just over the top and little bit 13:48 of crunch. And then some cinnamon, 13:51 sprinkle that over it too, just take a 13:54 little bit, sprinkle it over the top, 14:00 just like that. Now, you're gonna bake 14:04 these at 375 for about 20 minutes or until 14:09 they looked and there are little bit brown 14:10 on the top. Not too much, and I have a 14:13 finished product for you. 14:17 This is what they look like and when we're done. 14:24 And these muffins are delicious, sorry. 14:28 You're gonna love them, you should try them, 14:29 and for my brother I hope you like them too. 14:32 Well, until next time keep cooking and eat healthy. 14:43 Jared, good to see you. 14:45 Its' good to see you too. 14:46 No, no, it's good to see you Jared. 14:49 So, and yes... Did you see the sunrise? 14:52 Did you see the temple pigeons? 14:53 Yes, but so what? I was a blind man. 14:56 Oh! Yes. From birth. Now you can see! 14:58 Well I'm telling you the story, Jared. 15:00 I wanna just hear the story. 15:01 Look at that beautiful blue, 15:03 isn't that beautiful? Well, there I was at 15:06 the temple, answer the poor, 15:09 answer the poor and He came up. 15:11 Who came up? Jesus of course. 15:13 Yes! He came up, I guess he looked at me. 15:18 Amen. He spit on the ground Jared. 15:22 Spit on the ground! You know, 15:23 how we used to believe there is healing 15:24 principles in spit, not anymore. 15:27 He put his fingers in this spit made some mud. 15:32 He put it on your eyes? Both eyes, 15:35 and then He said go to the pool of Siloam. 15:39 Which means Sent? He send me the Sent, 15:42 I got up. Could you see? Of course not. 15:47 I was walking the crowd said, 15:50 hey money face where are you going? 15:52 I didn't listen to the crowd. No? 15:54 They said, hey we got some water wash your 15:55 face here. I said, no I've got go to Siloam. 15:58 Where He sent you? Yes, I bend down. 16:05 Put the water on my eyes, 16:08 opened up my eyes to blue sky to pigeon fly. 16:11 You can see! Oh! Jared, you will never understand. 16:14 Have you ever been blind for a minute? 16:15 Never! An hour? No. All your life? 16:18 No. The touch of Jesus, I went running back 16:22 to the temple, I wanted to find Him, 16:24 I wanted to see what He look like, 16:27 but I bumped into a Pharisee. Oh! No. 16:30 Oh, you know. What did they say? 16:33 They wanted to know how many steps I had 16:36 gone. Why? They wanted to know, 16:39 how I received my sight. They ought to be 16:41 happy you can see. Exactly, when I told 16:43 them this man bend down and made some 16:46 mud they said, umm! On the Sabbath? 16:50 I'll tell you, I'm so thankful. 16:53 You know, I was told all my life it was because 16:56 mom or dad had done some terrible sin and 17:00 God was punishing. No. Yeah! But Jesus, 17:04 He has made it so clear, He has made it 17:06 so clear. They threw me out of the Synagogue 17:11 Jail. They threw you out? 17:12 That means I can't shop. 17:13 Just because you can see? Exactly! 17:15 Because I claimed that Jesus was a prophet. 17:19 They said prophets wouldn't be doing such 17:22 things on the Sabbath? I said one thing I know, 17:25 once I was blind now I see. See! They took 17:29 me to my parents and they said, 17:31 you tell us what happened? 17:32 My parents were scared to death, 17:34 my dad and mom just backed off and they said, 17:37 he is off age ask him. Well they, they were 17:42 scared and I don't blame them. 17:44 No, the way they treated you. 17:46 Exactly! But what happened next was, 17:49 when they threw me out of Synagogue, 17:51 I sat down alone and then I saw a shadow, 17:56 and I saw a face come up and I recognized 17:59 the voice Jared, He said. It was Jesus. 18:02 He said, you can see. I said, 18:06 Lord tell me, tell me who you are that I 18:08 might believe. He said, you've seen me with 18:10 your literal eye. Now you see me with your 18:12 spiritual eye. And Jared nobody told me 18:15 to kneel, I just knelt. Of course you did. 18:19 He is now, he is such a special man, 18:20 the light of my life. 18:23 Let's pray Jared, let's pray. 18:39 [Music] 20:24 Thank you, William for that wonderful song. 20:26 You know, William is the only boy I know of 20:28 that can play the trumpet and smile at the 20:30 same time. Just love that. Thank you, 20:32 William. Well, today I want you to meet Katie. 20:35 Hi, Katie! Hi. How are you doing today? 20:37 Fine! Well, I'm glad that you're on Kids Time, 20:39 and you've done something special to 20:41 share Jesus, what is it? Yes, I shared Jesus is, 20:45 I collect Bible studies, and the meanings that 20:48 we have and I save them for my sister Tessa, 20:53 she lives in North Carolina, and few months 20:56 after that she came over for two weeks and 20:59 when the two weeks was up, 21:01 I said Tessa make sure you read them, 21:03 and she said I'll read them every worship 21:05 that we have. Oh! Now, Tessa doesn't get 21:08 to live with you, does she? 21:10 No. So, you don't get to see you that often, 21:12 and that's the way to witness your own sister, 21:14 right? Yes. And that's awesome, 21:16 and do you think Tessa has given her heart 21:19 to Jesus? Yes. Isn't that wonderful? 21:21 But you want to keep witnessing and 21:23 encouraging her too, won't you? You know, 21:25 boys and girls that might be a family member 21:27 right in your own home that you can witness 21:29 too. Like Katie sister she is witnessing to 21:32 her sister because it might be a mother or a 21:35 father that doesn't know Jesus, 21:36 I want you to witness to someone everyday, 21:39 share Jesus tell them that Jesus loves them 21:41 okay.
