02:21Oh!
02:22This pretty young lady here, her name is?

02:39Your auntie gave you that shirt.
02:41It's so nice.
02:42It says, Ensenada, Mexico.
02:45Look at that.
02:46Yeah.
02:46You're so pretty.
02:48Did you notice something?
02:49If you were listening, you were paying attention.
02:53Before we sang the response, the Gloria Patri, do you know who sang it first?
02:58There was Jacob there.
02:59Now, Gloria, I heard her in.
03:02I heard him so he knows his liturgy.
03:06Wow!
03:06Give him a rousing applause.
03:09Jacob, Jacob, Jacob.
03:12How are ya?
03:12I'm good.
03:13You're good.
03:14How's the school that?
03:16Okay.
03:16You're about to say something.
03:17Go ahead.
03:17And I gave him that ring thing.
03:21Oh, the bulletin.
03:22That's the spirit.
03:24Make yourself useful.
03:26We are well seen.
03:27Make yourself useful.
03:28Would you please close the door?
03:30It's a little bit easy to do.
03:33Okay.
03:35You know something, Jacob?
03:38Yes.
03:38Your Kuya energy here appreciates that.
03:41Really.
03:42Really.
03:42Thank you very much.
03:43How are ya?
03:44I'm good.
03:45I have a short verse for you today.
03:47Say this with me.
03:48If we confess our sin, say it with me.
03:51If you confess your sin, God is faithful to forgive us.
03:56I'm going to show you an object and this object is no strange.
03:59Not a strange object to you.
04:01It is a pencil.
04:03Right?
04:03Now, here's to the pencil.
04:05If you have to write something with a pencil, it's no path of mystery.
04:10Not even a magic.
04:11If I put in the Jacob.
04:13Okay?
04:14And then, I spelled it wrong.
04:16I spelled it with J-A-K-O-V.
04:20It's a mistake.
04:21Right?
04:22You know what I can do to correct it?
04:24Here it is.
04:25What is called an eraser.
04:26So all I need to do is erase the K.
04:30It is clean.
04:31And then make it a C.
04:33So now it is J-A-C-O-V.
04:36That spells Jacob.
04:38Yeah?
04:38What is true with the pencil is true with us also.
04:42We don't live a perfect life.
04:44We sin almost moment by moment.
04:47And yet, thank God.
04:49He gave us that erasers.
04:51And we can ask God and say, Lord God, I'm sorry.
04:54And the Bible says that if we confess our sin and we ask for forgiveness, God forgives us.
05:01Isn't that amazing?
05:02Many times God does not.
05:04Many times people do not forgive.
05:05That's my lesson today.
05:06But you can count on the fact that God cleanses us from all our righteousness.
05:12That is my short lesson for you today.
05:14Do you want my pencil?
05:15Sure.
05:15You can have it.
05:16Pray to me.
05:17Jacob.
05:18Raise your bell.
05:19Lionel, Jovan, and TJ.
05:21Pull your heads like this.
05:22Repeat.
05:22Okay.
05:22Pull your heads.
05:23Bow your heads.
05:24Close your eyes.
05:24And say it with me.
05:26Love you, God.
05:27Love you, God.
05:29That when we sin, we can ask for forgiveness.
05:35And you cleanse us.
05:37Thank you for your forgiveness.
05:40In Jesus' name.
05:42Amen.
05:43Amen.
05:44Short lesson, but powerful.
05:45Don't forget.
05:46When you sin, just say, Lord, I'm sorry.
05:49And I'll do it again.
05:50And say, Lord, God, cleanse us.
05:52Give the children a bit.
