00:03 It's time to share there is a world out there
00:06 looking for a friend like Jesus, it's time to share
00:11 there is a world out there. Let's tell them that
00:14 He loves us so. Let's tell them that He loves
00:18 us so. Kids Time, Kids Time, Kids Time.
00:25 Hi boys and girls you know my little grandson
00:26 Michael knows that I am a pretty big softy.
00:29 My daughter Becky has told him never ever to ask
00:31 me for anything. She wants him to have good
00:34 manners and she also wants any gift that I give him,
00:37 be my idea not his. Well I would like to show you a
00:40 picture of Michael. He is so precious and so adorable
00:43 and do you know I recently bought him a cowboy
00:46 hat and some cowboy boots and cowboy belt and I wrapped
00:50 it all up and I mailed it to him and sent it to him
00:52 in the mail, and you know what he was so happy,
00:55 but he soon realized that something was missing
00:58 and he couldn't ask me for anything, what he was
01:00 gonna do. Well you know what he asked his mom
01:03 if he can call grandma and his mom said Michael
01:05 do not ask your Grandma for anything,
01:08 he said I won't mommy, but I need to talk to my
01:11 grandma in private, so when he called me up
01:14 on his mom's cell phone he says grandma
01:16 you got to be really quite, I need to talk to you,
01:19 and I got to go under my covers for this one
01:22 and I said what Michael and he says Grandma
01:25 don't hang up, don't hang up grandma and so I
01:29 could hear some wrestling around and he was getting
01:32 under his covers in his bed. And I was really kind
01:34 of noisy and then pretty soon I heard him say,
01:36 grandma are you still there and I said yes Michael
01:40 I am still here and he says grandma,
01:43 grandma I need to tell you some really important,
01:46 I said okay Michael what is it, he said Grandma
01:49 I don't have a cowboy shirt and I started to smile
01:54 and I said Michael would you like grandma to
01:56 buy you a cowboy shirt and he started smiling
01:59 I couldn't tell and he said now you got it grandma.
02:04 He really had a serious request for his grandma
02:07 didn't he? Well you know boys and girls there is
02:10 something that, if we have a serious request to
02:13 God because God hears all our requests,
02:17 but sometimes if we have a very serious request
02:20 we can do something special and it's called fasting.
02:24 Now some people fast by going without food
02:25 for a very long period of time and then other people
02:28 fast by maybe not eating or drinking certain things
02:31 that they really, really like. It's one way of saying
02:34 to Jesus, I have a very serious matter in my heart
02:37 and I need your help with this and I will accept your
02:40 answer whatever it is. Well on today's Bible story
02:44 the Jewish Nation comes face to face with a very serious
02:47 matter and they decide to fast and pray and depend
02:50 on God for the answer to their dilemma.
02:53 You know boys and girls you can go to Jesus anytime with
02:57 something that's really on your heart because you
03:00 can talk to Jesus anytime, anywhere,
03:02 and you don't even have to hide under the covers
03:05 like Michael did when you talk to Jesus.
03:08 Well right now let's see what Ranger Jim
03:09 has to share with us today.
03:18 Hi boys and girls Ranger Jim saying
03:19 welcome to Nature Time. We are glad you can join us
03:21 today we are in Chattanooga, Tennessee with my
03:23 friend Nature Dan. Dan thank you for coming and teaching
03:25 us something, what is this we have? Well you know me
03:28 I got to bring something to explain you,
03:30 that's right, that's why we want you to teach us.
03:32 Well, I found this in the woods and I brought it
03:35 into my office, where I was working and it was hooked
03:39 up to a little leaf and what's really neat is there
03:42 was something inside it. It was hooked,
03:44 it was hanging down like this then, it was hanging down,
03:47 okay, okay. Any idea what it is? Well go ahead,
03:51 well this has made from silk that came from a
03:53 caterpillar that turned into a moth and I saw
03:58 it come out, oh, you got the witness,
04:01 I got to witness it coming out? Didn't have a camera,
04:04 didn't you? No I, actually I did have a camera it
04:07 was one of those instant cameras, it was not a real
04:08 good picture, but I got a picture of it when it fully
04:10 got out and it spread its wings, oh what a site.
04:14 What a struggle it was for it to get out.
04:17 Really fought to get out of it, oh absolutely.
04:19 Okay let me tell you a story while we are there,
04:22 okay you can tell me more later,
04:24 but I want to tell you about this struggle.
04:25 I recently heard a man was telling about it,
04:27 he had the same experience as you but you were wise
04:30 you knew that the moth had to struggle to get out
04:35 in order to exercise its body that all of the circulatory
04:39 system would start working. This man in his ignorance
04:42 decide he would help it and so he began to tear
04:44 away the keys and then the creature didn't have
04:47 to struggle it crawled out into his dismay,
04:50 it sat there with wrinkle and shriveled wings and
04:52 could never fly. And this wise man uses this an
04:55 illustration that, as we as Christians when we have
04:59 difficulties in our lives and stuff if we have a
05:02 relationship with Christ it makes us stronger
05:04 and if we don't have those struggles and things
05:06 of that nature then we become shriveled as does
05:09 that Moth. And so okay I am sorry for interrupt,
05:12 you go ahead, that's a wonderful story Ranger Jim,
05:15 you just go right here and tell us more if you like.
05:17 Yes this particular moth is a huge moth,
05:20 this group is a big fellow and they got these big
05:23 eyespots. They are not really eyes,
05:25 but they look like eyes when they open up their wings
05:29 like, oh when some sees it might be eat and things
05:32 like go ahhhh, and go fly and away.
05:34 That old moth is not gonna be able to eat them,
05:36 but it does scare like. That is part of the defense
05:39 mechanism, that's right, it protects from that.
05:42 Now tell me about, we have an expert here is it
05:45 true that moths do fly to a flame or to,
05:48 they always like to keep the light in their eyes
05:51 and so that's why they kind of circle and they
05:53 go around like you see a streetlight or if you put
05:56 out a light near your house, they want to go towards
05:59 that light. They are attracted to as good as few
06:02 brought things to our streetlights because
06:03 we are in the background automobiles passing
06:06 by us don't we like that? But I have always
06:07 want to, but that's the reason they see the light
06:09 and they are attracted, they will circle around
06:11 that light in them as they do that.
06:14 Now another interesting thing some people
06:16 say what's the difference between a moth and
06:19 a butterfly. Now a moth if you look at this little head,
06:23 it will have the antenna, right. But they look
06:25 like feathers, and that's a moth. If it looks like
06:29 just little antenna sticking up just these little wired
06:32 like things that's butterfly, it will be a butterfly,
06:35 okay. Alright interesting to learn, you've taught me
06:39 something today and I thank you for that.
06:41 Boys and girls, it's wonderful to see and learn
06:43 about these things. I hope that sometime in your life
06:45 if you find one of these creatures and is hanging
06:47 from a branch that you might take it home
06:49 and you too will have that wonderful experience.
06:51 So Ranger Jim as always telling you boys and girls
06:54 don't forget to tell Jesus that you love
06:56 him because he really does love you.
07:15 Oh, it's a beautiful day for driving,
07:16 isn't it? Yeah sure it is, but I am really bored.
07:20 How can we bored, I think we just saw a 1957 show,
07:23 watch out, you better be careful with this car.
07:25 Oh, I would, don't worry about this car.
07:27 This is Miss Brenda's. Did that sign just say
07:31 470 miles to the rest area, Uncle Buddy,
07:35 I think we just saw that sign, sometime ago and I think
07:39 we lost, oh I don't think we are lost,
07:42 I know we are lost. I think we should pull into this
07:46 gas station and get some directions. Don't worry,
07:55 he will get some directions and we will be on our
07:57 way home. Boys and girls if you are ever afraid or lost,
08:02 you don't have to worry about that because
08:05 Jesus is gonna come and take us home.
08:12 Let us sing a song that will cheer us by the way,
08:16 In a little while we're going home;
08:20 For the night will end in the everlasting day,
08:25 In a little while we're going home.
08:28 In a little while, in a little while,
08:32 We shall cross the billow's foam;
08:36 We shall meet at last, When the stormy winds are past,
08:42 In a little while we're going home.
09:05 In a little while, in a little while,
09:09 We shall cross the billow's foam;
09:13 We shall meet at last, When the stormy winds are past,
09:19 In a little while we're going home.
09:26 We will do the work that our hands may find to do,
09:30 In a little while we're going home;
09:34 And the grace of God will our daily strength renew,
09:38 In a little while were going home.
09:43 In a little while, in a little while,
09:47 We shall cross the billow's foam;
09:52 We shall meet at last, When the stormy winds are past,
09:57 In a little while we're going home.
10:16 Welcome to Learning Time, I am glad you joined us
10:18 today and I have got a special helper.
10:20 Tristan thanks for helping us, you are welcome.
10:22 Hey I have got a special piece of equipment right
10:25 here and Tristan what is that say, Danger High Voltage,
10:29 it says danger high voltage keep fingers away,
10:34 keep your fingers away from that. You know why,
10:37 why, because if there is going to be a lot electricity.
10:40 Now this happens be a very special piece of equipment
10:43 called Jacob's ladder, isn't that an interesting word
10:46 or term. Now would you like to see me demonstrated,
10:50 yes. Well it's all plugged in and all I have to do is just
10:54 kind of hold this little switch right here,
10:56 now we are not gonna touch it, are we?
10:58 No. No because it's dangerous, here we go let's try it,
11:01 do you see that? What is that? Wow,
11:07 what is that look like Tristan, lightening.
11:10 It looks like lightening to me you know what that is
11:12 electricity and this is our Jacob's ladder,
11:15 is that dangerous? Yeah, you know I think it's dangerous
11:18 do you think it's hot, yeah, it kind a looks like a little
11:21 flame up, there it is, wow look at there and it starts,
11:24 it starts a little fire, now that is an interesting term
11:28 Jacob's ladder. Now that is high voltage,
11:32 that's 15000 volts and above 30 milliamps and I
11:38 wouldn't wanna touch that it would hurt us right?
11:39 Now can you here that, can you here that sound
11:41 Tristan when it goes up, listen to that.
11:46 And it almost reminds me a lightening doesn't it.
11:49 Now have you ever been outside in a lightening
11:51 storm? Yes I have, you have and you like to look at
11:55 lightening somebody told me that, that's interesting.
11:57 But you were telling me a story about your family.
12:00 Could you share that with everybody? When I was
12:02 little, me and my mom, she had to take me to my
12:04 babysitters in upstairs, she stepped in the
12:07 puddle and lightening struck her.
12:10 Can you imagine? What happened to her was
12:11 she okay? Yeah, did she get shock.
12:14 Should you be outside in storms, No, no because
12:17 something bad might happen to you.
12:19 Now I turn that sound again and we are gonna
12:21 concentrate on that sound, aren't we? Here we go.
12:25 Can you hear that? Yes. Now, can you hear lightening,
12:29 yes yeah because lightening crashes through the air,
12:31 can't we? And we can hear it, we called that thunder
12:34 right, but we shouldn't be outside,
12:36 we should be inside and we wanted to be very safe.
12:39 Well sound is interesting if the air didn't carry sound,
12:44 we would never hear the lightening all what we do
12:46 is to what see the flash wouldn't we?
12:49 Now you know how we can tell if lightening is far
12:51 away from us or closer to us.
12:53 You know how we can tell? How can we tell?
12:56 Well my mom told me once thunder arose then
13:00 you count the seconds till lightening strikes.
13:02 That's right, you count the seconds,
13:04 so if you see the flash, the flash what you do is you
13:07 count the seconds just like Tristan said and you count
13:10 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000 if you get to 5000 do you know
13:17 how far the lightening is away from you,
13:20 about one mile isn't that interesting?
13:22 Because sound travels about 1100 feet per second.
13:27 That's interesting, isn't it? Well let's get back to
13:29 our little Jacob's Ladder again, we are gonna
13:31 make a go again watch that little arc and it's coming
13:34 up and we are ionizing the air when that happens
13:37 come on up, come on, come on, come on all the way
13:40 up to the top. You know that reminds me of something
13:43 Tristan you know that Jacob, you know Jacob
13:45 in the Bible. Yes. That's a neat story, isn't it?
13:47 You know he was running away from home and running
13:49 away from his brother because he kind a cheated
13:52 him little bit didn't he? And God gave him a wonderful
13:55 dream. Do you remember the dream in the Bible
13:57 about Jacob's Ladder, yeah, that's why this is called
14:00 a Jacob's ladder because that little arc,
14:01 it starts at the bottom like we start climbing a
14:04 ladder at the bottom, and we go rung after rung
14:07 and we get higher and higher upon on the ladder.
14:10 You know what that dream was all about? Well,
14:12 it was God trying to tell Jacob that God was gonna
14:16 be with him and not to worry so much because Jacob
14:19 had lot to worry about, didn't he? Oh, yes,
14:21 his brother was after him and he was kind of in trouble
14:23 that's for sure. Well, God is always with you and
14:26 I as well and when we learn more about science,
14:31 we learn more about our creator God.
14:46 Wife, I am concerned, why are you concerned?
14:51 Did you see the Gallow that was being constructed
14:53 by the palace? A Gallow, a Gallow.
14:57 What would there be a Gallow by the palace
14:59 I don't know. Usually that means that somebody
15:02 is gonna be hung. Hung. Who could it be? I don't know.
15:10 What is going on? There is a commotion in the city.
15:13 What kind of commotion, everybody is crying;
15:15 there are some people that are angry and even,
15:18 is it among our people, yes it is among our people
15:20 the Jews, they are just angry. Why did they all angry for?
15:25 Well you know what even Mordecai,
15:27 remember the keeper of the king yes, yes.
15:31 He is in ashes and sackcloth. Mordecai is sackcloth?
15:36 And he is going around the city crying with a bit of cry.
15:39 Oh! Why? Did he say why? Well there was a decree,
15:43 someone told us there was a decree that on an
15:46 appointed day that the Jews were to be killed.
15:50 All of them sparing not even women and children.
15:53 Oh! That's terrible news my daughter. Yes, yes why?
15:57 Well it all happened this way somebody told us.
16:00 that remember around the time when Queen
16:04 Esther when she was appointed queen, yes,
16:07 remember that? Yes, we know about Queen Esther,
16:09 it was a big deal, yes while the king around that time
16:12 promoted Haman the Agagite to above all of the
16:17 princes and he commanded that everybody
16:20 should bow down and reverence him as he
16:23 passes by. But remember you mother and father
16:27 you told this that reverence is only due to God.
16:31 That's right. That's right; remember that, that's right.
16:33 So the Jews, some of them are doing that and Haman
16:36 as he went by one day, a couple times he went by
16:40 Mordecai and Mordecai refused to bow and
16:44 reverence Haman. Mordecai is the Godly man,
16:46 yes truly. He is only doing what God told him to do.
16:49 He is sure he is. But Haman was so upset he was
16:54 so mad that Mordecai would not bow down to him that
16:59 he said gallows yes he said gallows,
17:01 gallows hang him out, to hang Mordecai.
17:05 So it is for Mordecai. Oh, no. So Queen Esther,
17:10 she heard that Mordecai was going about the city
17:13 with ashes and sackcloth, so she set cloths for him
17:19 but he refused to put it on, he refused to wear,
17:23 poor Mordecai, Queen Esther? Yes so guess what
17:27 we found out about Queen Esther. She is a Jew,
17:29 can you believe this, she is a Jew? Queen Esther
17:32 a Jew? Yes, we never knew that but is led out know
17:35 that she is a Jew. How did you find that out?
17:36 Somebody told that she is a Jew and one day well
17:40 Mordecai when he found that about the decree.
17:44 He sent a word to Queen Esther that she needs
17:46 to go to the king an intercede on our behalf,
17:50 on her people's behalf. Oh, praise God for that.
17:53 But guess what she said, she said, she set back her
17:56 servant to tell Mordecai that she can't do that because
18:00 there is a law saying that those who go to the king
18:04 unannounced without being called,
18:07 they were to be put to death unless the king will extend
18:11 his golden scepter, and did Queen Esther go? Did she go,
18:14 not yet, well not yet, she told her uncle Mordecai
18:17 to go around the city and to gather every Jew
18:21 in Shushan and everywhere else that they may fast
18:26 and pray for three days and on the third day,
18:31 Queen Esther will go to the king and she said that
18:35 if she perish really perish, but she will go and she
18:40 said to fast and pray that God will intercede on her
18:43 behalf and that God will move the king's heart to
18:47 extend up his golden scepter that she may live and
18:50 she may have a chance to intercede for us.
18:55 Well that's exactly what we are gonna do, yes.
18:56 That's exactly what we are gonna do,
18:58 we are going to fast and we are going to pray
19:00 and we gonna go home right now,
19:02 we are gonna fast and pray to God that, this all gets
19:05 worked out the way it is supposed to be.
19:06 Oh, are we gonna go right now because we need
19:07 some bread, no, no this is the time for bread.
19:12 We need to fast and we need to pray.
19:15 Run along, go home now, go home now. Let's go.
19:33 Jesus wants me for a sunbeam, to shine for Him each day;
19:42 in every way try to please Him, at home, at school,
19:48 at play. A sunbeam, a sunbeam,
19:50 Jesus wants me for a sunbeam; A sunbeam,
19:54 a sunbeam, I'll be a sunbeam for him.
20:03 Jesus wants me to be loving and kind to all I see;
20:10 showing how pleasant and happy His little one can be.
20:18 A sunbeam, a sunbeam, Jesus wants me for a sunbeam;
20:26 A sunbeam, a sunbeam, I'll be a sunbeam for him.
