(Miss Kate) Hey guys, I'm at my
friend Lena's house and she is a
00:04:41.18\00:04:44.35
sheep herder. That's what
she does for a living. I want to
00:04:44.38\00:04:47.52
share with you some things that
I've been learning about sheep.
00:04:47.55\00:04:50.19
(Sheep bells sounding) What
struck me was how curious the
00:04:50.22\00:05:02.10
sheep and the goats are. They're
very scared of me but once they
00:05:02.13\00:05:06.63
got what they considered was
a safe distance away, they would
00:05:06.67\00:05:10.44
just stand there and stare at me
They don't put the bells on all
00:05:10.47\00:05:14.11
the sheep, just the few sheep
that are more independent, the
00:05:14.14\00:05:18.21
ones who tend to wander off
easier. Baby sheep can stand
00:05:18.25\00:05:25.65
within minutes of being born.
Sheep like to stick together in
00:05:25.69\00:05:29.79
a herd. There is safety in
numbers. That's where their
00:05:29.82\00:05:33.43
protection is. By the time
they're six months old they're
00:05:33.46\00:05:38.43
just about full grown and
they're not as cute. It was so
00:05:38.47\00:05:44.34
relaxing and peaceful to be
out in the forest, to hear the
00:05:44.37\00:05:48.41
clinking of their bells
and the sound of the wind.
00:05:48.44\00:05:51.21

00:05:51.25\00:06:11.03
Hi boys and girls. I'm glad that
you got to join me as we went
00:06:11.07\00:06:13.60
with my friend and out to
see her sheep and went sheep
00:06:13.64\00:06:16.34
herding with her. I was really
surprised because her sheep move
00:06:16.37\00:06:21.11
really, really fast. Basically
they go really fast until they
00:06:21.14\00:06:26.41
find some grass and then they
stop and they eat grass. You
00:06:26.45\00:06:29.52
know what else they like to eat,
which I didn't know before. They
00:06:29.55\00:06:33.05
like to eat the snow. They love
the snow and they eat the snow
00:06:33.09\00:06:38.06
which is pretty funny too. It's
very, very important that sheep
00:06:38.09\00:06:42.16
have a shepherd to go with them
because the shepherd helps to
00:06:42.20\00:06:46.27
keep them safe. And when it's
time to turn around and go home
00:06:46.30\00:06:49.44
at night back to the safety of
their pen, the shepherd has to
00:06:49.47\00:06:52.77
be the one to make sure that the
sheep turn around and go in the
00:06:52.81\00:06:56.44
direction that they're supposed
to and head towards home.
00:06:56.48\00:06:58.98
I think my favorite goat
was the little baby. Did you get
00:06:59.01\00:07:02.02
to see it?
00:07:02.05\00:07:03.39
The little baby was so adorable
and it would follow its mom
00:07:03.42\00:07:07.32
around and it was really curious
And you know what, when they fed
00:07:07.36\00:07:10.96
the sheep in the morning their
little baby goat would jump into
00:07:10.99\00:07:15.53
the feed trough and would
stand in the feed trough and
00:07:15.56\00:07:18.07
eat while the
00:07:18.10\00:07:19.47
others just put their heads
in. It was really funny to see.
00:07:19.50\00:07:23.30
There are so many placed in the
Bible where Jesus talks about
00:07:23.34\00:07:28.24
sheep and calls us sheep.
And what does he call Himself?
00:07:28.28\00:07:32.48
Do you know? He calls himself
the good shepherd. Jesus is our
00:07:32.51\00:07:37.55
good shepherd. He takes care
of us. He watches the sheep, he
00:07:37.59\00:07:41.32
walks along beside them. When
they get hurt he's right there
00:07:41.36\00:07:45.06
to help them. When they are
going really fast because they
00:07:45.09\00:07:50.20
want to get to the next part
of the green grass, he's right
00:07:50.23\00:07:53.07
there with them walking along
beside them. Jesus never forces
00:07:53.10\00:07:57.21
us. He doesn't tell us that we
have to follow Him. He invites
00:07:57.24\00:08:01.84
us. He gives us the opportunity.
And I know today, I want to
00:08:01.88\00:08:05.65
follow Jesus. How about you?
It's really exciting for me to
00:08:05.68\00:08:10.25
be able to be here and to watch
the sheep and learn more about
00:08:10.29\00:08:15.62
them. I hope that I get to see
you next time when we explore
00:08:15.66\00:08:20.96
God's nature and His creation
together. We'll see you later,
00:08:21.00\00:08:25.00
Bye bye.

00:08:26.40\00:08:49.16
(Miss Michelle) Today we're
going to be talking about a
00:08:49.19\00:08:51.23
story that Jesus said would be
repeated all throughout history.
00:08:51.26\00:08:56.10
This story, the woman in this
story, was an example for all of
00:08:56.13\00:09:02.47
us. Who could that be?
Hmm. Let's pray and find out.
00:09:02.50\00:09:06.57
Dear heavenly Father, we praise
you and thank you for loving us,
00:09:06.61\00:09:10.21
for sending your Son, the
ultimate sacrifice for our sins.
00:09:10.25\00:09:14.65
Please come into our hearts
today Lord. Fill us with your
00:09:14.68\00:09:18.29
Spirit and be with us a we learn
about this important story in
00:09:18.32\00:09:22.52
your scriptures. In
your name we pray, Amen.
00:09:22.56\00:09:25.03
Let's do a little history lesson
real quick. Look out. Miss
00:09:25.06\00:09:29.06
Michelle is a teacher so yep,
I do like to do some teaching
00:09:29.10\00:09:31.70
sometimes. Now we know that
since the beginning of time,
00:09:31.73\00:09:35.90
since Jesus created Adam and Eve
and sin happened the sacrificial
00:09:35.94\00:09:40.38
system started. And those are
two big words. Right? It means
00:09:40.41\00:09:43.75
that Adam and Eve brought a lamb
and sacrificed it or killed it
00:09:43.78\00:09:47.82
and this lamb represented Jesus,
the Lamb of God who would take
00:09:47.85\00:09:51.69
away the sin of the world.
Sounds gross and really sad,
00:09:51.72\00:09:54.79
doesn't it? It is. But let's
think about it. The sacrifice
00:09:54.82\00:09:58.19
that Jesus had to make for us
was really sad and what he had
00:09:58.23\00:10:01.46
to go through was excruciatingly
painful. Now let's fast forward.
00:10:01.50\00:10:06.53
The Jews were in Egypt and a
big event happened where God led
00:10:06.57\00:10:11.01
them out of Egypt. We call
that the Passover. And that was
00:10:11.04\00:10:14.51
another thing that pointed
to Jesus. You see, the Jews,
00:10:14.54\00:10:18.85
or the Israelites who were in
Egypt, it was the last plague.
00:10:18.88\00:10:24.85
Do you remember this? It was
going to be death of the first
00:10:24.89\00:10:28.06
born. And if they painted
blood on their door post that
00:10:28.09\00:10:31.06
represented Jesus's
blood covering them, once again
00:10:31.09\00:10:34.13
pointing to Jesus and if there
was blood on the door post their
00:10:34.16\00:10:37.73
first born son didn't die.
The Passover was celebrated over
00:10:37.77\00:10:42.27
time and little did the people
in Jesus' time know that the
00:10:42.30\00:10:46.41
most important Passover was
coming up in just a few days.
00:10:46.44\00:10:50.21
Jesus knew that the lamb that
would be sacrificed in just a
00:10:50.25\00:10:54.15
few days was Him, the true lamb
of God. The priests were already
00:10:54.18\00:11:00.39
plotting His death. How lonely
Jesus must have felt to know
00:11:00.42\00:11:04.79
this and yet to tell even His
disciples and His followers this
00:11:04.83\00:11:09.00
and feel like no one was
listening. They wanted an
00:11:09.03\00:11:11.77
earthly kingdom, they wanted
an earthly king, they wanted
00:11:11.80\00:11:14.20
freedom from the Romans and when
Jesus would tell them the truth
00:11:14.24\00:11:17.81
it just went right over their
heads, in one ear, out the other
00:11:17.84\00:11:20.98
And the Passover was coming up
so soon, Jesus' death was coming
00:11:21.01\00:11:26.08
so soon. Six days away was the
Passover and Jesus was on his
00:11:26.11\00:11:29.65
way to Jerusalem. But, of course
He had to stop at Bethany. Do
00:11:29.68\00:11:33.25
you remember who lived at
Bethany? If you said Lazarus,
00:11:33.29\00:11:37.29
Mary and Martha, you were right.
Three of his dearest friends.
00:11:37.33\00:11:43.06
It was at Bethany that Lazarus
was raised from the dead. There
00:11:43.10\00:11:47.30
was another resident or person
who lived in Bethany who also
00:11:47.34\00:11:50.94
owed Jesus a debt of gratitude
and his name was Simon. He was a
00:11:50.97\00:11:56.95
Pharisee and he had been
healed by Jesus of leprosy, that
00:11:56.98\00:12:01.45
horrible skin condition
that would lead to your death
00:12:01.48\00:12:05.02
eventually. Simon was a disciple
of Jesus but he wasn't fully
00:12:05.05\00:12:08.52
committed. He still hadn't
changed how he thought to how
00:12:08.56\00:12:12.03
Jesus thinks and he still
thought he was a pretty good
00:12:12.06\00:12:15.63
person. You know, except for the
leprosy bit and maybe a couple
00:12:15.66\00:12:18.10
of little things that he'd done.
But he had many desperately evil
00:12:18.13\00:12:22.87
secret sins and he was holding
onto those things and still on
00:12:22.90\00:12:28.08
the outside looked like he
was a really good guy but in his
00:12:28.11\00:12:31.75
heart he had some very wicked
things there. He thought, to pay
00:12:31.78\00:12:37.25
Jesus back, to make it right
for what He had done for Simon,
00:12:37.29\00:12:42.62
he would have a big party, a big
feast for Jesus and why a party
00:12:42.66\00:12:46.36
would pay someone back for
healing you from a desperately
00:12:46.39\00:12:49.80
horrible disease is beyond me,
but in his mind, Simon thought
00:12:49.83\00:12:52.33
that this would help, I don't
know, make up for that or pay
00:12:52.37\00:12:56.30
Jesus for that. And Lazarus was
invited and Mary was there and
00:12:56.34\00:13:01.18
Martha was there. She was in
charge of the food. Surprise,
00:13:01.21\00:13:03.45
surprise. Many people were
in Bethany at this time because
00:13:03.48\00:13:06.18
one, they were headed to
Passover and two, they wanted
00:13:06.21\00:13:08.98
to see Jesus. They also kind of
wanted to see Lazarus too, you
00:13:09.02\00:13:12.09
see, they knew he had been dead
for four days and they wanted to
00:13:12.12\00:13:15.32
know what it was like to be dead
Now we know because it says in
00:13:15.36\00:13:18.56
Ecclesiastes 9 verses 5 and
6: For the living know that they
00:13:18.59\00:13:23.57
will die, but the dead know
nothing and they will have no
00:13:23.60\00:13:26.84
more reward for the memory
of them is forgotten. Also their
00:13:26.87\00:13:30.27
love, their hatred and their
envy is now perished. Nevermore
00:13:30.31\00:13:33.24
will they have a share in
anything done under the sun.
00:13:33.27\00:13:36.34
We know that once you die, you
don't know anything. In fact,
00:13:36.38\00:13:40.82
when Lazarus died he didn't know
anything. Nothing was going on
00:13:40.85\00:13:45.52
his brain, his soul didn't leave
his body and go up to heaven.
00:13:45.55\00:13:48.42
He stayed in the grave and was
sleeping until Jesus woke him up
00:13:48.46\00:13:51.79
four days later. The same thing
happens when our loved ones die.
00:13:51.83\00:13:55.43
It's so sad for us but for them
it's a nap till Jesus comes and
00:13:55.46\00:14:01.47
the next thing that they
know Jesus will be coming in the
00:14:01.50\00:14:04.81
clouds of glory. Isn't that
amazing? I'm so glad that we
00:14:04.84\00:14:08.81
have that hope for our relatives
Isn't that great? Now they
00:14:08.84\00:14:14.18
wanted to know what it was like
to be dead and Lazarus would
00:14:14.22\00:14:16.89
have said, Well I don't know. I
didn't know what was happening.
00:14:16.92\00:14:19.35
I just woke up and Jesus was
there. But it is Jesus and He is
00:14:19.39\00:14:22.62
the one who raised me from the
dead and He is the Son of God.
00:14:22.66\00:14:25.19
So he did witness to people in
that way. Now back to the feast.
00:14:25.23\00:14:28.40
The guests came in and they
lay on these couches, they were
00:14:28.43\00:14:32.53
around these really low tables.
I don't know if you've ever been
00:14:32.57\00:14:34.67
to a restaurant before that has
a low table that you sit on the
00:14:34.70\00:14:38.04
floor. Their feet were faced
away from the table and they
00:14:38.07\00:14:40.91
were just kind of lounging there
and eating. It was odd though
00:14:40.94\00:14:44.38
because no one was sent to wash
Jesus' feet which was a custom
00:14:44.41\00:14:47.25
at those times. We'll talk about
that more in the future but it
00:14:47.28\00:14:50.99
was kind of odd that that didn't
happen. But the food was great,
00:14:51.02\00:14:53.82
of course; Martha was in charge.
And they were all enjoying that
00:14:53.86\00:14:58.09
together. And that's when Mary
came in. Jesus had done so much
00:14:58.13\00:15:02.56
for Mary. He had scared away
demons out of her multiple times
00:15:02.60\00:15:07.17
He had loved her even though she
lived in sin and had made some
00:15:07.20\00:15:11.41
really horrible choices. He had
raised her brother from the dead
00:15:11.44\00:15:16.01
and she was so thankful and she
truly had a repentant heart. She
00:15:16.04\00:15:21.22
knew she was a sinner and
she knew that she needed Jesus.
00:15:21.25\00:15:24.79
She had been listening, you see,
to what Jesus was talking about.
00:15:24.82\00:15:29.02
Jesus had told his disciples and
she had been there too that he
00:15:29.06\00:15:33.80
would die soon. They kind of
just didn't believe him. They
00:15:33.83\00:15:37.50
kind of were like okay, yeah,
yeah, mm-hmm, we all die, mm-hmm
00:15:37.53\00:15:40.40
But she was listening. She also
heard people talking about how
00:15:40.44\00:15:44.77
he was going to become king soon
because they wanted him to be
00:15:44.81\00:15:49.08
king soon and be the earthly
kingdom and defeat the Romans.
00:15:49.11\00:15:51.68
Right? In John is where we find
the part of the story that we're
00:15:51.71\00:15:56.65
going to read, but it's very
interesting to learn that all
00:15:56.69\00:15:58.89
four gospels also have
this story. John 12 verse 3:...
00:15:58.92\00:16:02.39
Then Mary took a pound of
very costly oil of spikenard and
00:16:02.42\00:16:07.06
anointed the feet of Jesus and
wiped his feet with her hair.
00:16:07.10\00:16:11.63
And the house was filled with
the fragrance of the oil. Maybe
00:16:11.67\00:16:17.31
your dad has some cologne
or your mom has some perfume or
00:16:17.34\00:16:20.34
your grandma or papa but I have
this perfume. This is special
00:16:20.38\00:16:23.21
perfume because my husband got
it for me way back when we were
00:16:23.24\00:16:27.35
dating so it's very old perfume.
And I only wear it once in a
00:16:27.38\00:16:30.22
while for special occasions. But
the perfume that they had back
00:16:30.25\00:16:35.32
then was a little different than
the perfume that we have today.
00:16:35.36\00:16:37.89
You see this spikenard was very
expensive and you can buy some
00:16:37.93\00:16:42.60
very expensive perfumes today.
Right? This spikenard that she
00:16:42.63\00:16:46.40
had bought actually took a whole
years' worth of her wages to
00:16:46.43\00:16:49.70
buy this. Like she worked
a whole year to get this much
00:16:49.74\00:16:53.64
money. She had heard Jesus talk
about His death and she wanted
00:16:53.68\00:16:56.88
to use that to put on His body
after He died but then she got
00:16:56.91\00:17:01.05
to thinking about it and we need
to think about this too. Should
00:17:01.08\00:17:03.79
we thank people and tell them
how much they mean to us after
00:17:03.82\00:17:07.49
they die or while their still
alive? She wanted to be the
00:17:07.52\00:17:10.73
first one to celebrate Him as
king and so she put the perfume
00:17:10.76\00:17:16.70
on Jesus. Now today if you just
spray it, a little bit will come
00:17:16.73\00:17:20.54
out. Right? But back then they
had perfumes a little different
00:17:20.57\00:17:24.07
and they would actually break it
now I'm not going to break this
00:17:24.11\00:17:26.54
but they would break it and you
couldn't use it again. So it was
00:17:26.57\00:17:30.35
like a one-time deal. So she did
she broke it. Matthew and Mark
00:17:30.38\00:17:34.25
say that she anointed Jesus'
head with it and Luke and John
00:17:34.28\00:17:37.59
say that she put it on Jesus'
feet. Now does it really matter?
00:17:37.62\00:17:40.99
No. The important part was she
was anointing Him and showing
00:17:41.02\00:17:44.39
Him that she believed Him
and that she was celebrating Him
00:17:44.43\00:17:48.00
and thanking Him. At first
no one noticed but you know how
00:17:48.03\00:17:50.87
perfume is. I just sprayed one
little spurt of this perfume and
00:17:50.90\00:17:53.87
the whole room is starting to
smell like Miss Michelle. Right?
00:17:53.90\00:17:56.40
Now the same thing happened
there. (coughs) I just had a big
00:17:56.44\00:18:01.34
whiff of it too. It's a good
smell, just don't inhale it.
00:18:01.38\00:18:03.35
Right? Pretty soon everybody
stopped because they smelled it
00:18:03.38\00:18:07.98
and they knew that this was some
very costly perfume. No one said
00:18:08.02\00:18:14.49
anything until Judas spoke
up and sadly he didn't have nice
00:18:14.52\00:18:18.13
things to say.
John 12 verses 4-6:...
00:18:18.16\00:18:22.66
But one of His disciples, Judas
Iscariot, Simon's son, who would
00:18:22.70\00:18:26.13
betray Him said, Why is this
fragrant oil not sold for 300
00:18:26.17\00:18:29.57
denarii and given to the poor?
This he said, not that he cared
00:18:29.60\00:18:33.38
for the poor but because he was
a thief and had the money box
00:18:33.41\00:18:37.28
and he used to take what was
put in it. So he was like the
00:18:37.31\00:18:42.28
treasurer of the group and
he would take money instead of
00:18:42.32\00:18:46.05
giving it to the poor. So
he thought that would have been
00:18:46.09\00:18:48.56
great money for him. Right? Wow!
How selfish. And Mary was just
00:18:48.59\00:18:52.49
crushed. She felt terrible. She
wanted it to be a secret but she
00:18:52.53\00:18:56.16
had forgotten about how the
smell would fill the whole room.
00:18:56.20\00:18:58.43
How embarrassing. Jesus
looked right at Judas and Judas
00:18:58.47\00:19:05.31
realized the Jesus knew; He knew
his heart and he knew that he
00:19:05.34\00:19:09.01
had been dishonest even though
Judas thought he was being
00:19:09.04\00:19:11.31
sneaky and getting away with it.
And at that point Judas left.
00:19:11.35\00:19:16.25
And he hurried away to Jerusalem
to offer to help capture Jesus,
00:19:16.28\00:19:20.39
to the high priest.
00:19:20.42\00:19:23.12
But Jesus said, Let her alone.
She has kept this for the day
00:19:23.16\00:19:27.00
of my burial. For the poor you
will always have with you but me
00:19:27.03\00:19:34.37
you will not always have.
00:19:34.40\00:19:36.57
Now there was another person
in the crowd who also questioned
00:19:36.60\00:19:40.68
her choice there and that was
Simon the host of the party and
00:19:40.71\00:19:46.11
he said something as well, which
was not kind. He said in Luke 7
00:19:46.15\00:19:53.02
verses 36-39:...
00:19:53.05\00:19:54.96
Then one of the Pharisees
asked him to eat with him...
00:19:54.99\00:19:58.93
Let's fast forward. And
she began to wash his feet she
00:19:58.96\00:20:03.50
was doing that...
00:20:03.53\00:20:04.87
And when the Pharisee [that
would be Simon] who had invited
00:20:04.90\00:20:06.80
him saw this he spoke to himself
saying, This man, if He were a
00:20:06.84\00:20:09.67
prophet, He would know of
what manner this woman is who is
00:20:09.70\00:20:13.71
touching Him, for she is
a sinner. [Whoa] And Jesus
00:20:13.74\00:20:18.15
answered and said to him, Simon,
I have something to say to you.
00:20:18.18\00:20:21.45
So he said, Teacher say it.
00:20:21.48\00:20:24.25
Jesus could have called Simon
out. Simon, as I said before,
00:20:24.29\00:20:28.12
had done some very, very wicked
things that I don't even want to
00:20:28.16\00:20:31.46
get into and yet he thought he
could call Mary out on this and
00:20:31.49\00:20:37.60
she was a sinner too. Don't
get me wrong. But he was an even
00:20:37.63\00:20:40.44
greater sinner.
00:20:40.47\00:20:41.80
There was a certain creditor who
had two debtors, Jesus said. One
00:20:41.84\00:20:44.94
owed 500 denarii and the other
50 denarii, and when they had
00:20:44.97\00:20:49.31
nothing with which to repay he
freely forgave them both. Tell
00:20:49.34\00:20:52.98
me therefore which of them would
love him more? Simon answered
00:20:53.01\00:20:56.35
and said, Well I suppose the one
he forgave more. And He said to
00:20:56.38\00:20:59.42
him, You have rightly judged.
Then He turned to the woman and
00:20:59.45\00:21:02.69
said to Simon, Do you see this
woman? I entered your house and
00:21:02.72\00:21:06.36
you gave me no water for my
feet but she has washed my feet
00:21:06.39\00:21:09.30
with her tears and wiped them
with her hair of her head. You
00:21:09.33\00:21:12.37
gave me no kiss, but this woman
has not ceased to kiss my feet
00:21:12.40\00:21:15.54
since the time she came in. You
did not anoint my head with oil
00:21:15.57\00:21:18.41
but this woman anointed me feet
with fragrant oil. Therefore, I
00:21:18.44\00:21:21.64
say to you, Her sins which are
many are forgiven for she has
00:21:21.68\00:21:25.48
loved much. But to whom little
is forgiven the same loves
00:21:25.51\00:21:29.45
little. Then he said to
her, Your sins are forgiven. And
00:21:29.48\00:21:32.95
those who sat at the table with
Him began to say to themselves,
00:21:32.99\00:21:35.09
Who is this man that he forgives
sins. Then he said to this woman
00:21:35.12\00:21:38.09
You faith has
saved you, go in peace.
00:21:38.13\00:21:41.20
Jesus forgave Mary. He forgave
Simon too, and he will always
00:21:41.23\00:21:45.30
forgive you.

Hi friends. This is Moe. Well
about two weeks ago we started
00:24:16.55\00:24:22.26
our adventure and I told you how
we served in the mission field.
00:24:22.29\00:24:25.79
One of our very close family
friends got really hurt and we
00:24:25.83\00:24:29.93
decided that we needed to help
him. That is my boy Liam. You
00:24:29.96\00:24:33.37
can hear him in the background
and he's listening to our story
00:24:33.40\00:24:36.20
too. Last week we saw that
when we pray God listens and He
00:24:36.24\00:24:42.01
answers and He knows exactly
what we need. We left off last
00:24:42.04\00:24:45.88
week with how the kidnappers
were convicted that they should
00:24:45.91\00:24:49.25
not touch my dad; that he was a
man of God. And we were praying
00:24:49.28\00:24:53.96
for him and we knew God was
going to do something. And they
00:24:53.99\00:24:57.39
started to protest, some of the
people in that car and say, No
00:24:57.43\00:25:01.40
way. We need to finish the job.
We need to hurt this man too.
00:25:01.43\00:25:04.40
But God said no. Just at that
moment the head kidnapper said
00:25:04.43\00:25:09.00
we're going to drive this man
back and we're going to help him
00:25:09.04\00:25:12.74
find his way to whatever things
he was going to do, which was to
00:25:12.77\00:25:17.71
help our friend that got hurt
really bad. As they were driving
00:25:17.75\00:25:21.65
him the head kidnapper
said, Pastor, I want to ask for
00:25:21.68\00:25:26.02
forgiveness. I want to ask if we
could still be friends. Now my
00:25:26.05\00:25:30.96
father didn't know who those
people were and we didn't know
00:25:30.99\00:25:33.50
who they were. But you know even
when people that are not nice to
00:25:33.53\00:25:38.17
you ask for forgiveness you
always ought to forgive them
00:25:38.20\00:25:43.37
just like Jesus forgives
us. Sometimes we're not nice to
00:25:43.41\00:25:48.18
people and sometimes we say
things that are not the best
00:25:48.21\00:25:51.05
things to say. But you know when
we turn to Jesus He forgives us
00:25:51.08\00:25:55.72
and when we turn to one another
we should forgive one another.
00:25:55.75\00:26:00.22
My father forgave the man and
there he got the help that he
00:26:00.26\00:26:04.89
needed to help our friend that
got hurt really badly. Today our
00:26:04.93\00:26:10.00
friend is still alive because of
the help he could get and it is
00:26:10.03\00:26:14.37
a good story to always share
with you how Jesus listens to us
00:26:14.40\00:26:19.14
and we should never be afraid
because we can talk to Jesus
00:26:19.17\00:26:24.35
today. So whatever's in your
heart, whatever situation you
00:26:24.38\00:26:27.78
might be facing, if something
is making you sad or you're not
00:26:27.82\00:26:31.85
sure about the future, talk
to Jesus today and ask Him, Lord
00:26:31.89\00:26:37.13
help me. And I tell you what.
Jesus will always answer your
00:26:37.16\00:26:42.13
prayer because he listens and
he loves you and he died for you
00:26:42.16\00:26:47.17
So look to Jesus
today my friend Take care.

Our Father in heaven, thank
you so much for your love. Thank
00:27:20.07\00:27:23.54
you for the story of Mary
because it reminds us that
00:27:23.57\00:27:27.01
you care for us and that when
people come and make fun of us
00:27:27.04\00:27:31.58
and do things you don't like
that and you care about every
00:27:31.61\00:27:39.32
individual. I thank you also for
the story of Simon because it
00:27:39.35\00:27:43.96
reminds us that we're no better
than anybody else. And help us
00:27:43.99\00:27:48.26
to start everything we do with
you. Help us to be missionaries
00:27:48.30\00:27:53.17
to everybody we're with and help
us to show your love to everyone
00:27:53.20\00:27:58.24
We love you Jesus, we
thank you. In Jesus' name, Amen.
00:27:58.27\00:28:04.35
Thank you so much for watching,
Have a blessed week and
00:28:04.38\00:28:08.42
keep in touch.
