00:00Praise Him! Praise Him! All you little children! God is love! God is love!
00:10Praise Him! Praise Him! All you little children! God is love! God is love!
00:21Hello. Good morning. We haven't seen Miss Olive for a while. How are you? Good. Good, good, good. How old are you now? Four. Now she's officially four. You're not five? Not yet. Okay, sorry. I didn't mean to say that you're five yet. But you will be five at some point next year.
00:47And I want to say hello to everyone and everyone here as well. Well, I have actually, I'm going to put him on the spot a little bit because it will be his birthday this coming week.
00:59So I actually want to illustrate today's Bible verse by asking our Kuya Agda to come up to the stage real quick. Sorry, he doesn't know this. We're going to illustrate today's verse.
01:12Let's give him a hand this Tuesday. Angelo Gabriel Apan, Aga, affectionately known to all of us, will be 20 years old. I cannot believe it.
01:26Give him a hand. Why not? Why not? And to tee it off, Kuya Agda, please show our verse. Kuya Agda, stay up there.
01:37All the kids and all the congregation together, let us say the verse. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Hebrews 11, 6. Once again, all together.
01:49Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Hebrews 11, 6. Now, I'm also going to put someone else on the spot.
01:59They don't know this, but I thought this might be a great illustration for this verse.
02:03Kuya Agda, the Kuya of Agda, will also come up here. Let's give Kuya Agda a hand.
02:09Sure, why not? Alright. You both know the idea behind a trust fall, right? You know what a trust fall is?
02:19What's a trust fall?
02:22Yeah, exactly, exactly. It's not going to be you, though. You, in honor of your birthday, okay?
02:29We're going to see if you'll make it to your 20th birthday by doing the trust fall with your Kuya being the one to catch you.
02:36So, no pressure. No pressure. Alright. Let's have you, Kuya, stand here. Kuya Agda, stand there.
02:44And, uh-oh, let's see, let's see, let's see. Trust fall.
02:47Oh, that's not complete faith. Remember, without faith, it is impossible to please God.
02:59Alright. You don't have to, well, try it one more time, maybe one more time. Let's see, let's see.
03:04We need to come one more time.
03:08There you go. Give them back.
03:11Thank you, thank you, boy.
03:12Alright, alright.
03:15It's a good thing that it wasn't me in the...
03:18Trying to be the one to catch you, because that would...
03:21They would not have had faith, and I wouldn't have had faith in me either.
03:24But the point is, kids, you see the illustration.
03:27To show that we truly have faith in God,
03:30it's as if we are Kuya Agda in that illustration.
03:34Kuya Adre is like God.
03:36And we can literally fall back into the hands of God,
03:41knowing that He will never leave us nor forsake us,
03:45that He will always be there for us,
03:46that no matter what we go through in life,
03:50we may be pleasing to the Lord by showing that we have faith in Him,
03:54as He is faithful to us.
03:56So I hope that that kind of silly but funny,
04:00but also memorable lesson will stick in all of our heads,
04:03and will penetrate our hearts deep within
04:06so that we may have faith in God,
04:08because, let's read it again.
04:10Without faith, it is impossible to please God,
04:15be inclusive with every sin.
04:17Let us pray.
04:19Hold your hands by our heads, close your eyes,
04:21and let's say,
04:22Father God, thank you for sending
04:26your Son, Jesus Christ,
04:31in whom I place,
04:33my faith,
04:35my trust,
04:37and my hope.
04:39Help me,
04:40by your Holy Spirit,
04:43to have faith
04:45in you
04:46at all times,
04:48in all things,
04:50so that
04:52I may please you,
04:54I may please you,
04:55and offer to you,
04:56and offer to you,
04:58sacrifice,
04:59and sacrifice,
05:00worship,
05:01and thanksgiving,
05:03and praise,
05:04and praise.
05:05In Jesus' name,
05:06Jesus' name,
05:07Amen.
05:08Amen.
05:09Amen.
05:09Give them a hand.
