Right there. 02:33 Okay, now what does a pad do? 02:37 Well-- Besides float on the water. 02:41 Well, there's that frogs could land on them. 02:44 Yeah, that's a good one. 02:45 Have you ever seen, kids, frogs on lily pads 02:48 but not only that, 02:49 these pads are pretty big around because that's where 02:52 the pad draws the sunlight in. 02:56 Now the other part of the lily pad 02:58 is the what, Courtney? 03:01 The flower. The flower. 03:02 Now where is the flower? 03:04 Well, it's right there, Ranger Dwight. 03:06 Okay, that means you're paying attention. 03:08 Now I want to ask you a question, see if know this. 03:12 At night time will you ever see a lily pad flower? 03:16 No, Why is that, do you know? 03:18 Because they close up during the night. 03:22 That's exactly right, kids. 03:23 They close up during the night. 03:25 And you know what, 03:27 I want you to look in this water right now, kids. 03:30 As you're looking at this, how does it look down there? 03:32 It looks really clear you can see 03:34 but what do you see on the bottom? 03:35 Mud, Mud and mud, Would you wanna swim in that? 03:38 No sir, How can a lily pad so beautiful grow in such muck? 03:45 Well, you know what, I was reading 03:46 a little bit on lily pads and it says 03:48 that the more fertile the ground 03:49 the more muckier it is, 03:51 you'll have beautiful lily pads. 03:54 I've actually seen lily pads in like a cesspool, 03:58 a terrible place, you would never even think 03:59 of being there, it's smelly. 04:01 But here comes a lily pad and that is a great object 04:04 lesson for us today about Jesus. 04:05 Jesus is the lily. 04:07 He's represented as the flower 04:09 and you know, we're in this world of muck and sin 04:12 and we all wanna to go to heaven, don't we?

We have Isaiah. 06:54 Isaiah, I understand that you really like comedy. 06:58 Yes, I do, because I like to make other people laugh 07:01 and when I see comedy on TV I like laugh too. 07:07 And that's a talent, isn't it? 07:08 Yes, Make people laugh, very good. 07:10 And I've got Chris. 07:11 Now, Chris, I understand you had 07:12 an interesting broken arm story. 07:15 Yes, I was roller skating 07:17 and there was a skateboard on the floor 07:19 and I fell and my right arm hit it, 07:21 flew up in the air and my-- 07:23 and it hit my left arm and broke it. 07:25 Well, it's a pretty bizarre accident. 07:28 In the middle of summer or so-- 07:29 I'm glad you're okay, now. 07:31 Hey, let's get up my three helpers, 07:32 come on up here. 07:33 We got some things on the table 07:35 and I'm wondering, 07:37 what are these three things up here? 07:38 Actually we've got these white things what are those? 07:40 Toilet paper, This is a toilet paper. 07:42 Anybody have toilet paper around your house? 07:44 Yeah, well, you know that, 07:45 that's a lot of science experiment we have here. 07:47 We have a little paper roller and you know, 07:50 toilet paper was invented around 07:51 the 14th century and you know, 07:53 it has a lot of material on this toilet paper right here. 07:56 Now, Holly, I wonder if you can just take-- 07:58 grab this and gather that up in your hand 08:00 and can you just quickly tear off a piece of that paper. 08:03 Just tear it quickly, just quickly, okay. 08:07 Or not? Okay, or not, okay. 08:09 Wow, it's not working very well, sit here. 08:12 So let's try. 08:13 What you have to do is, you have to tear it 08:15 a little more quickly. 08:16 So let's try that right here. 08:17 There you go and just go ahead and pull it real hard. 08:20 Wow, and snap and everything fell off 08:23 of the table, didn't it? 08:25 But you know what, what does Holly have in her hand? 08:28 She's got a little piece of toilet paper, 08:30 that's interesting. 08:31 Now let's try this other one right here. 08:33 Now we've got this one for Isaiah. 08:35 Now grab a hold, the whole thing there and just-- 08:38 let's go ahead and tug on that-- 08:39 just pull, nice pull for it. 08:41 Wow, look at that, oh my goodness, 08:43 did you want that much? 08:45 No, No I don't think so. 08:47 Well, it's interesting isn't it? 08:48 But you know, did you notice 08:50 that when we pull the roll that was really, really big 08:53 it has a lot of weight. 08:54 It has a lot of mass to it and we'll get Chris 08:56 to do this one right here and you pull that real sharp. 08:59 Notice when he pulls it real sharp, real hard, 09:01 it just tears right off and he gets a little piece. 09:04 That's because the toilet paper, 09:06 the big roll has a lot of mass and the inertia. 09:10 Inertia means an object at rest wants to stay at rest, 09:13 so when he grabbed a hold of it 09:15 the roll wanted to stay there 09:16 and he just ripped a piece off. 09:19 But you know if things don't have much mass, 09:21 if they're not very heavy they don't have much mass, 09:24 then they can move much more quickly with a little tug. 09:28 And so here, why don't you try that one again, Holly? 09:31 And go ahead and tug on that one right here. 09:33 Go ahead and tug it on. 09:34 Look at that and it just keeps 09:35 rolling and rolling and rolling. 09:36 Here, tug that again. Tug it again for us. 09:38 So here we go. Wow, wow, oh, my goodness. 09:41 And look at that we got 09:42 all of that toilet paper on there. 09:44 So things that don't have a lot of mass, 09:48 they don't have much inertia. 09:51 Either an object in motion wants to stay in motion 09:54 like this big roll of toilet paper. 09:56 Once you get it moving it just wants to move and move. 09:58 But an object at rest just wants to stay at rest 10:02 like this big old roll right here. 10:04 Isn't that interesting? 10:05 Yeah, You know that kind of reminds me 10:06 sometimes that people-- 10:07 you know sometimes you and I might want somebody 10:10 to accept Jesus Christ as their savior. 10:12 We might force them. 10:13 Is that a good idea to force people 10:15 to accept Jesus Christ? No, I don't think so. 10:17 Just like that we might wanna just force them 10:19 and like we force this little piece of paper, 10:21 toilet paper off of the roll, but what happens? 10:24 We usually break our relationship with them 10:26 because they don't like it very well. 10:27 Do you like people forcing you? 10:29 No, I don't like people forcing me either. 10:33 But you know what, 10:34 if we just gradually get to know those people, 10:37 just pull it kind of nice, just keep pulling it. 10:39 Is that tearing now? 10:41 No, it started to move and it wants to keep moving 10:44 and that's interesting 10:45 and that's what you and I need to do. 10:47 You and I need to know people 10:49 to get to know them. 10:50 Once they get to know us and we get to know them, 10:53 then we can influence them 10:55 and we can have them accept Jesus 10:57 and we won't what? 10:58 We won't force them 10:59 because that's not a good situation to be in at all. 11:03 Well, remember, when we learn 11:05 more about science, we learn more about our Creator, God. 11:17 Okay, I have 30 pieces of silver over here, 11:20 30 pieces of silver anybody-- 11:21 two pieces, two piles of gold, 11:23 two piles of gold here. 11:24 All right, 40 pieces of silver, 40-- 11:26 any other bids, any other bids. 11:27 Sold to this one right here. 11:29 You, over there, get over there.
