01:31 Isn't that a fun song. We have so much to be thankful about
01:35 Praise be to God for our Savior has come. There's no
01:40 that Mary treasured the fact that she was chosen to bring in
01:43 the Savior of the world. Yet I don't think she fully understood
01:47 what that would require of her Son Jesus. Let's listen to Jada
01:51 play Mary, Did You Know on a steel pan.
01:53 ♪ ♪
03:45 We can only imagine how Mary's heart must have
03:48 felt to be holding
03:49 the Savior of the world. Hallelujah, Praise Ye the Lord.
03:53 She likely realized that only her very best would do to raise
03:57 the Baby Jesus. Please listen with me as Sam sings

10:47 Hello everyone. Let's start off with a question first.
10:51 Have any of you every built a sand castle? And maybe because
10:56 there were a lot of people watching you may have not built
11:00 a sand castle before. Maybe you've built a snow castle
11:03 before. Or picked up a bunch of snow and built it into little
11:07 snow balls. Well of course I live in California so I can't
11:11 build a snow castle or snow balls. So today we will be
11:16 talking about sand castles. One time I went to the beach with my
11:20 church friends and, it's the beach, let's build a sand castle
11:24 So I took a little time building molding a sand castle, then it
11:29 got hit by a wave. So then I decided to move back a little
11:34 bit further and decided to mold it together, put the water back
11:39 in it and it was finally perfect And as any excited person would
11:46 do, I jumped up and was super excited that I decided to tell
11:50 my friends because I'd say it was a pretty good sand castle.
11:53 But because it's the beach and it has so many exciting things
11:57 I got a little bit distracted and as I started to play in the
12:03 water, I forgot about the sand castle. So I ran back without
12:06 even telling my friends that I'd built a sand castle. And guess
12:10 what? My sand castle was destroyed. I got so distracted
12:16 with my friends and playing in the water because it's a beach
12:19 that I forgot to check on my sand castle and my beautiful
12:23 piece of art was destroyed. Sometimes our sand castles are
12:29 like talents from God, gifts from God. We mold them up, we
12:35 practice our talents. We take time to build our sand castles
12:39 our talents and then we go off and we get distracted and when
12:44 we come back our sand castles, our talents, are gone. You know
12:50 God can do this to us if we don't use our talents and we get
12:54 distracted playing with the water, "water," or going off
12:58 with our friends and forgetting about our talents, when we come
13:01 back God has taken away those talents. Little drummer boy
13:07 practiced and practiced so he can play his drum well. This can
13:11 be like us. We could be the little drummer boy and practice
13:14 and practice our talents so we can perform them well. So right
13:19 now I want you to think about your talent. It could be two, it
13:24 could be three, it could be four or many be even one or skip to
13:28 ten. But whatever talent it is we should remember that God
13:33 gave them to us so that we can use them for Him and so that we
13:38 can practice so that our sand castles don't get destroyed.
13:42 Let's look at Romans 12 verses 6-8. Starting at verse 6 it says
13:49 In His grace, God has given us different gifts for doing
13:54 certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to
13:58 prophesy speak out with as much faith as God had give you. If
14:03 your gift is serving others serve them well. If you are a
14:07 teacher teach well. If your gift is to encourage others be
14:10 encouraging. If it to giving, give generously. If God has
14:15 given you leadership ability take the responsibility
14:19 seriously and if you have a gift for showing kindness to others
14:23 do it gladly. I challenge you today to follow what this verse
14:29 says. If you have talents then practice them, practice them
14:32 well and remember that God gave them to you. So use them for Him
14:39 Remember don't ruin your sand castles.
14:42 Thank you Logan for that thought It's true. Sometimes we destroy
14:46 our sand castles. We feel we have nothing to give and often
14:50 we get discouraged. Yet that is why Jesus came to the earth.
14:54 He wanted to bring comfort and joy. Please listen carefully to
14:57 the words of this next song.

20:28 If I were a wise man I would do my part, but what can I give Him
20:33 I give Him my heart. I hope you too want to give your heart to
20:37 Jesus. It's a wonder to think how much Jesus loves us and that
20:42 he would come to this earth to save us and that He too gave His
