00:01We have more kids this Sunday and the next few Sundays in fact.
00:05Kenzie, I'm going to have you introduce your cousins.
00:08Can you give them your best surprise face like you had on Friday?
00:14It's much to Kenzie's surprise.
00:17Her cousins came from the Philippines.
00:19Introduce your cousins.
00:21This is Kenzie and this is Kalilah.
00:26And they came from the Philippines.
00:30When did they come?
00:31They came on Friday.
00:34On Friday.
00:35Kalilah, how long will you guys be here?
00:37How long?
00:38Twenty-one days.
00:40Twenty-one days.
00:41Very exact.
00:42Not three weeks.
00:43Twenty-one days.
00:44Nice.
00:45You got to be exact.
00:46Kalilah, can you say hi?
00:47I'd like to hear your voice.
00:48Say hi.
00:48Hi.
00:51All right.
00:53Well, kids, you know that Pastor Dave, whenever he comes in,
00:56he's much more, there's more theatrics when it comes to the children's time kind of stuff.
01:02Last week, I was told he did something magical, right?
01:05What did he do the last week?
01:07What did he do the last week?
01:08Oh, okay.
01:09Twenty-one days.
01:10Cards.
01:11So, and it's funny, what did you call them?
01:14Cards.
01:14Cards.
01:15That's funny, because I believe they were not cards.
01:17They were actually...
01:19C.Bs.
01:19C.Bs.
01:20Were they C.Bs?
01:21I don't think they were.
01:22They were actually records, if I'm not mistaken.
01:24These kids nowadays don't know what records are.
01:27But, that's okay.
01:30Today, I don't have anything really truly magical for y'all, but I do want to ask you,
01:35what are some of the miracles that you know Jesus did?
01:39Yeah, go ahead.
01:41Water into wine.
01:42Water into wine.
01:43Very good.
01:44What's another one?
01:45Kayla.
01:47Help a blind person reach through his eyes.
01:50That's right.
01:51The sight to the blind.
01:52The water to wine.
01:53What else?
01:55The Lord healed the ten lepers.
01:58Yeah, he did heal the ten lepers.
02:01I think you're talking about the ten lepers.
02:03Right?
02:03Yes, very good.
02:04But, what if right this moment in time, kind of like one of the stories we learned a couple
02:09weeks back, we had to feed all of these people and there were five thousand of them.
02:13Five thousand, but all we had was that piece of bread right there.
02:18You think we could feed it?
02:20We could use that to feed five thousand people, let alone fifty people that we have here today?
02:25No.
02:26Not with that little piece of bread.
02:28What we could use, though, is something that is a little bit of magic, perhaps.
02:35Maybe a little bit of magic.
02:39Yes.
02:42Yes.
02:42Yes.
02:43And, for those of you that don't know, we're playing today, and I just have to represent
02:48my land of magic from the East Coast.
02:50Anyway, you can learn that if you like.
02:52But, you see, that's what would happen if you and I had to feed a bunch of people with
02:59just a little bit of bread.
03:00We'd have to come up with something magical.
03:02Something maybe slight event.
03:04Maybe the bread is actually up our sleeves.
03:06But, guess what?
03:07Jesus didn't have to use magic.
03:10Jesus didn't have to use any kind of tricks up his sleeve.
03:13You've got to squeeze a yoke on it.
03:14This is the verse that I want you to remember today and for the rest of your lives.
03:20Let's read it together up on the screen.
03:22Jesus said, I am the bread of life.
03:27John 6, 35.
03:29One more time.
03:30Jesus said, I am the bread of life.
03:34John 6, 35.
03:36What this means, kids, is that when Jesus says, I am the bread of life, he literally
03:42is the one from whom all blessings flow.
03:45You know, we sing that song at the end of church.
03:47Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
03:49Praise him all creatures here below.
03:51Praise him above the heavenly host.
03:52Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
03:55Well, when Jesus says he's the bread of life, think of bread as the most basic need that
04:01you have in life.
04:02If you didn't have bread, you would starve.
04:04If you didn't have water or any kind of drink, you would also not be able to live.
04:10But if Jesus says, I am the bread of life, that means that everything comes from Jesus.
04:15All the blessings you have, the life that you live, the air that you breathe, even the
04:20things that go above and beyond when you ask for God in prayer, Jesus is your bread of
04:26life.
04:27You never forget that, children.
04:28Okay?
04:29Let's close our heads.
04:30Close our heads.
04:31Now our heads.
04:32Close our eyes.
04:33Close our heads.
04:34Pray with you.
04:34Say, Heavenly Father.
04:35Heavenly Father.
04:38For sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, the bread of life.
04:45Thank you, Jesus.
04:46Thank you, Jesus.
04:47For blessing me.
04:48For blessing me.
04:49Every day.
04:50With the food I eat.
04:52With the food I eat.
04:53And the water I drink.
04:54The water I drink.
04:55The clothes I wear.
04:56The clothes I wear.
04:57The house I live in.
04:58For the house I live in.
04:59And the family I come from.
05:03for every blessing
05:05from our Lord
05:07in Jesus' name
05:08Amen
