00:03 It's time to share there's a world out there,
00:06 Looking for a friend like Jesus. It's time to share 00:11 there's a world out there; 00:13 let's tell them that He loves us so. 00:16 Let's tell them that He loves us so. 00:20 Kid's time, kid's time, kids time. 00:25 Hi, boys and girls. Well, there is a verse 00:26 in the Bible that, it's found in Jeremiah 29:13. 00:30 I would like to read it for you. 00:31 It says, and you shall seek me and find me, 00:34 when you shall search for me with all of your heart. 00:37 You know, this verse reminds me of a little 00:39 animal that paid my sister visit one day. 00:42 And it was searching for something with all of its 00:44 little heart. You know, my sister Linda 00:46 was cooking supper at a youth camp at Camp of Sabu 00:49 in Michigan. And she was cooking for about 00:52 300 people. I'm telling you, my sister Linda 00:55 is such a wonderful cook and those enticing 00:58 smells were drifting out of her kitchen window 01:00 and into the woods. Well, just as my sister 01:03 was putting the last piece of fruit into a big bowl 01:06 of fruit salad. One of the ceiling tiles came crashing 01:09 down right from above and landed right on her, 01:12 by her foot, but you know what that's not all 01:15 that landed by your foot. Down came a great big 01:18 fat hungry raccoon and he had climb up 01:21 into the attic and he fell through the ceiling 01:23 landing right there by her foot. Well, my sister and 01:26 she gave that hungry raccoon a piece of that fruit. 01:30 And then you know what she did. 01:31 She shoot him right outside and supper was saved. 01:35 Well, our Bible story today is about a man, 01:37 who was so determined to see Jesus. 01:38 They reacted sort f like that raccoon, 01:41 who dropped into my sister's kitchen. 01:43 And how did he act like that raccoon. 01:45 Well, you are gonna've to wait just a little bit 01:49 because you will here the rest of the story, 01:51 but first let's drop in on the Ranger Jim 01:54 and see what he has to share for us today. 02:03 Hi, boys and girls. Ranger Jim saying 02:05 welcome to Nature Time. We're in Knoxville, 02:07 Tennessee at the zoo and we are seeing 02:08 some wonderful creatures. And my friend Michael 02:11 is here with one of his friends. Michael, 02:12 what is this beautiful creature? 02:14 This is a New Guinea Blue Tongue Skink. 02:16 It's one of the largest species of skink in the 02:18 world there is about 3000 just, 02:20 3 to 4000 described species and there is only 02:23 1-2 that are larger then her. 02:25 So, it comes from a large family of skinks. 02:27 I know back in Michigan, we go for a walk 02:29 with our children, pathfinders and we turn 02:33 over logs and but the one we find about this long. 02:36 Yeah, the largest species that we have in America 02:39 is about 4-5 inches. So, they get, 02:41 they get bigger, you get close. 02:44 Okay, the ones that we find are they are 02:46 non-poisonous and boys and girls enjoy them, 02:48 get them and I allow them once in a while to pick one, 02:50 put it in a jar, take it home and observe it for 02:52 an hour or so, but then they take it back 02:54 and put it back in. That's the best way 02:55 to do it, yeah. Take it back and release 02:56 it because there is no value to you, you can take it, 02:59 get it in better light where you can see it. 03:00 Yeah. Like this, now this creature is not venomous. 03:03 No, not venomous at all. She, she will threaten 03:06 predators with her blue tongue, 03:07 which maybe I can get her to do. 03:11 Okay, of course she wouldn't do it now. 03:12 No, not on cue, but she will, she will threaten 03:15 and she will hasten open her mouth, I mean, 03:17 she will show her blue tongue and predators 03:19 see that color and they know that, that's possibly 03:21 a sign of poison or venom when they leave her alone. 03:23 Alright, that's a good thing to remember 03:25 and I see her ears in the back of her head, 03:27 could we turn this slowly around maybe. Yeah. 03:29 Getting round like this and so maybe the 03:32 boys and girls could see that better, 03:33 the ears are large on the back of it like that. 03:36 And then, on its belly she has beautiful 03:39 coloration under here. And I have people, 03:43 who don't like snakes and don't like lizards 03:45 and we sometime call them pre-pecolor things. 03:47 And I talk about how beautiful they are. 03:49 And they say, Oh! Yak, I don't think that's 03:51 beautiful and all. Yeah. But people who love them 03:53 like you are herpetologist. Did you think 03:54 they're wonderful? Yeah, they are beautiful 03:56 creatures. They are beautiful creatures 03:57 because you understand them in all. 03:59 What ,what, what this creature eat. 04:00 She will eat just about anything you give her. 04:02 She is omnivorous and she will eat smaller skinks 04:05 or the lizards, fruits, berries, different, 04:09 different vegetables. She is just an opportunist, 04:11 whatever she can. It's just like that, 04:12 she will eat anything. Yeah, sure. Go along 04:14 like that, alright. Then I've, I feeling of her, 04:16 she is very firm, isn't she should very strong 04:19 structured like that. And about reproduction 04:22 this lays eggs, this creature lays eggs. 04:24 No, she actually gives live birth. 04:26 She gives live birth, alright. 04:27 That's wonderful we learned that and how many 04:29 would she have, when she had babies. 04:31 Anywhere between 5-20, depending on. 04:33 And they are little guys like this when they are born. 04:36 Yeah, about that size, yeah. 04:37 Okay, now does the parent stay with them 04:38 to protect them or just everyman for himself. 04:40 Just about everyman for himself, 04:41 they disperse pretty quickly. 04:43 Okay and so she now. If you have a creature 04:49 like this at the here at the zoo and you have 04:52 good veterinary in care. How long would the 04:54 creature like this live. Roughly about 30 years. 04:56 30 years that much, that much and of course 04:59 did in the while we would expect it to live that long. 05:01 It might live 20, 25 at most. 05:04 Yeah, yeah. And she is about 20 years right now. 05:06 Okay and so any predators that feed on these 05:09 or it's a just. They, they really good 05:11 at hiding, they hang out underneath leaflet or in logs. 05:15 So, they, they have relatively few predators, 05:17 but there is some large pythons that would eat them. 05:19 That would eat them like this, so. 05:20 Another beautiful creature. Thank you Michael 05:22 for telling us about it. Boys and girls Ranger Jim saying, 05:25 don't forget to tell Jesus that you love him 05:27 because he really does love you. 05:38 Hey, Michelle what are you doing? 05:41 Well, Kiera, I just want to show you how many 05:43 hymns Fannie Crosby be wrote. Did you know 05:46 that she wrote more hymns and all the hymns 05:48 and these hymn books put together that's more 05:51 tan 6000 hymns. Tell us more. 05:55 Well, when Fannie Crosby was only 6 weeks old. 05:57 She became blind, but that didn't stop her 06:00 from doing all the fun things kids like to do. 06:02 Like climbing trees and riding horses and running. 06:05 And she wrote some pretty good poems too. 06:08 She also like to turn those poems into words, 06:10 word songs, but one day a friend of hers came 06:14 to her and said Fannie you know, 06:16 you should use your talents for the Lord 06:18 the one he profess the love so much. 06:20 She took those words to heart and pretty soon, 06:23 she was writing in lots and lots of hymns for her 06:26 heavenly father and ours. Let sing one now redeemed. 06:38 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! 06:42 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; 06:46 Redeemed through His infinite mercy, 06:50 His child and forever I am. Redeemed, redeemed, 06:58 Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; 07:02 Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! 07:06 His child and forever I am. 07:12 Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus, 07:16 No language my rapture can tell; 07:20 I know that the light of His presence 07:24 With me doth continually dwell. 07:27 Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood 07:33 of the Lamb; Redeemed, 07:37 through His infinite mercy His child and forever I am. 08:04 Give them all, give them all Give them all to Jesus. 08:11 Shattered dreams, wounded hearts, 08:15 and broken toys. Give them all, 08:21 give them all Give them all to Jesus. 08:28 And He will turn your sorrow into joy 08:37 Are you tired of chasing pretty rainbows 08:45 And are you tired of spinning round and round. 08:53 Wrap up all the shattered dreams of your life 09:01 And at the feet of Jesus lay them down 09:08 Give them all, give them all Give them all to Jesus. 09:16 Shattered dreams, wounded hearts, 09:20 and broken toys. Give them all, give them all 09:28 Give them all to Jesus. 09:32 And He will turn your sorrow into joy 09:42 He never said you'd only see sunshine 09:50 He never said there'd be no rain 09:59 He only promised a heart full of singing 10:06 About the very things that once brought pain. 10:13 Give them all, give them all Give them all to Jesus. 10:21 Shattered dreams, wounded hearts, 10:24 and broken toys. Give them all, give them all 10:34 Give them all to Jesus. 10:37 And He will turn your sorrow into joy 10:46 And He will turn your sorrow into joy 11:08 Hey, Jonathan good to see you. 11:10 Good to see you. Wow! Look at this guy. 11:13 He is getting so big. He looks about as big 11:16 as his old dad. Few more inches. 11:21 Wow! I don't like keeping all kinds of things. Yes, right. 11:24 Oh! Look your friends are here. 11:26 Hey, friends. My name is Carol Barrington. 11:30 Welcome to Barrington ceiling tiles and long 11:34 furniture. You know, Barrington's is the only ceiling 11:37 tiles ever to be used in one of Jesus' miracles. 11:39 None of your ceiling tiles have been used 11:41 in the miracle. Oh! That is not true at all Jonathan. 11:45 You know, better than that. 11:46 Tell your dad to come down here, I'll set him 11:50 straight because what happen was the only day 11:54 when Jesus was here in town. We all gathered 11:56 at the house, just down the street. 11:59 And there were lots of lawyers from every town 12:02 in Galilee and Judi and Jerusalem. 12:05 And they all came to hear Jesus faith. Lot of people. 12:08 That's a whole lot of people. And lot's of people 12:12 were gathered around and nobody would or couldn't 12:14 move. So, when these people started shouting 12:17 from behind. We all just sit well. 12:21 We can't go anywhere, we're hearing Jesus faith. 12:25 Wow! So, guess were these guys showed up next. 12:30 Where? On the roof. On the roof. 12:34 On the roof and they were removing Barrington's 12:37 strong ceiling tiles. Sold in stacks of 12 or as singles 12:41 and started lowering this man right at Jesus' 12:45 feet and hold up. Well, Jesus didn't seem to by much. 12:50 I guess he admired their perseverance because 12:53 he turned to this man, who was completely 12:55 paralyze and he says, my friend your sins are forgiven. 13:00 Can you believe it? Well, all lawyer started to talk 13:05 and then they said, who does this man think he is. 13:07 God that he can forgive sins. This is blasphemy. 13:13 Well, Jesus didn't seem to mine. Now, 13:16 I wouldn't go that far with lawyers. 13:19 Now, anytime a lawyer is seem, but not heard. 13:22 It's a real shame to wake him. So, Jesus said, 13:29 why do you think this is blasphemy? 13:31 Doesn't the son of man have authority to forgive sins? 13:34 They didn't like that? No, they didn't like 13:37 that at all. So, Jesus said, by talkest cheek 13:41 I will prove my authority by healing this man. 13:44 And he reached down to this man and he says 13:47 my friend pick up your bed and go home for you 13:52 are healed. So, this man picks up his bed and he is 13:56 like run and jumping around and praising God, 13:59 everybody opened up like a parting in the rexine. 14:02 That's amazing. That was an experience. 14:06 Must have been. Okay, maybe I was 14:09 stretching the truth a little bit about Barrington 14:11 ceiling tiles been used in the actual miracle, 14:14 but I have been so proud to be in the ceiling 14:17 tile replacement business ever since. 14:19 Just to think that one of my ceiling tiles around 14:23 somebody to get closure to Jesus. So, 14:26 be faithful in whatever you do because 14:29 you never know what God has gonna use 14:31 from you to heal life. Thank you. 14:45 Maybe it will, maybe it will, but I'm not sure 14:51 even a weather man can't care 14:54 These unless partly cloudy skies. 15:00 I'm praying for rain, I've carried my umbrella for days 15:06 Can't see the skies through all these days, 15:09 I have to improvise, 15:15 Shy as of own, pa, pa, the seeds that I have sown 15:20 whenever grow unless it rains I wish it will pour whole day, 15:30 Only heaven knows for sure, Only heaven knows for sure, 15:37 When our rain will start to pour, 15:41 Only heaven knows for sure, 15:45 I know things will turn out fine 15:48 everything will turn out fine, 15:52 because he is gonna love me rain or shine, 16:04 Now that it's here, it seems it's been raining 16:07 for a year, feel like I'm grounding in my tears, 16:12 under these stars and cloudy skies, 16:18 I pray for the sun to shine down its healing rays of love, 16:24 We're needing some more, 16:25 from above us to command our eyes, 16:33 I went to the pond, pa, pa, the seeds that I have sown 16:38 whenever grow unless it rains, 16:42 Joys in the song comes out again, 16:48 Only heaven knows for sure, Only heaven knows for sure, 16:55 When our sun will shine some more, 16:59 Only heaven knows for sure, 17:03 I know things will turn out fine, 17:06 everything will turn out fine, 17:10 because he is gonna love me rain or shine, 17:17 Sunshine is down and warm this rain that falls on my skin, 17:24 Just like God's promise to take care of me, 17:30 In fact I just trust in Him, 17:35 Only heaven knows for sure, Only heaven knows for sure, 17:43 when our sun will shine some more 17:46 Only heaven knows for sure, 17:50 but I know things will turn out fine, 17:54 everything will turn out fine 17:57 because he is gonna love me rain or shine 18:01 He is gonna love me rain or shine 18:05 He is gonna love me... rain or shine, 18:10 tara, ra, tara ra, ra, ra, ra... 18:15 ra, ra, ta, ra ra, ra, ra, ra... 18:29 Hi, boys and girls.

Okay. 21:23 Well, Laurel Ann, tell me I have some delicious smelling 21:26 bread right here it's making Ms. Brenda very hungry. 21:29 I'm ready to take a piece of this bread. 21:30 Now, what is next to me? 21:32 This is some of our homemade bread. 21:35 We grind our own wheat. 21:36 Now, wait a minute, when you wheat. 21:37 Do you actually make bread yourself. I do. 21:40 And you made this loaf of bread, so. I did. 21:42 You did, and this looks beautiful. 21:44 Look how nice the bread is all around that even 21:47 Ms. Brenda makes bread every single week. 21:49 So, I can tell you that this is very nicely done 21:52 bread here.

And we pour it to the top 22:12 of the grinder and it comes out in flour. 22:13 That's right, we know, I had to just tell 22:15 the boys and girls that because Ms. Brenda makes 22:17 bread every week the same way and I grind wheat, 22:19 but some of you might not know about, 22:20 ha, alright go ahead. And once it's all finished. 22:24 We take it to our friends and neighbors our music 22:28 teachers and they really appreciate it. 22:31 Now, when you take this bread, 22:32 you give them anything else with it? 22:34 We will take them some fruit or magazine on health. 22:39 And do they ever ask you about things about health 22:41 and you can talk to them about it or. 22:43 Umm! Umm! I once helped my music teacher, 22:45 when she was sick. And how did you help her? 22:47 We took her some fermentation, 22:50 heating pad and told her how to do hot and cold. 22:54 Hot and cold. Showers. And stuff to help her 22:57 do that to feel better. Well, that's wonderful and 23:00 so you share Jesus in a wonderful way, 23:02 didn't you?
