All right, well, let's do it. 05:28 Okay, look over this way. 05:29 Let me tell you a story. 05:30 It's a long time ago when believe or not, 05:33 I was a little kid just like you guys, right? 05:35 I was a little boy 05:37 and I used to love going to Little Grassy Lake. 05:40 Miss Cinda used to go there with her family 05:43 because you know why we liked it? 05:44 We had a big camp, and it was a church camp, 05:47 and it was on a beautiful lake. 05:49 And in the summer kids would come from all over the state 05:52 and we would play and have fun. 05:54 But when all of the kids from Chicago 05:56 and other parts of the state went home, 05:58 we got to go every Sabbath or Sunday, 06:01 and have the whole camp to ourselves. 06:03 Miss Cinda would come, and her family, 06:05 my aunts and uncles, and cousins, 06:07 and brothers, and sisters would all come, 06:10 and our folks would get ready, we'd play all day. 06:13 They'd say, "Now be sure you're in before dark. 06:16 You can go play, but have a buddy system." 06:18 You know what that is? 06:19 Two people have to be together, so you count for each other. 06:23 My cousin Dennis and I, we were buddies. 06:25 So we would stay together. 06:27 They said, "Now you be sure and get in." 06:29 We played and we played, Miss Cinda, 06:31 and do you know what happened? 06:32 Oh-oh, time was getting away. 06:34 So we said, "We better hurry back to camp." 06:37 'Cause we didn't want to get in trouble with our parents, 06:39 we always want to mind our parents, right? 06:41 Yes, we do. 06:43 So we said, "Let's race and see who can get back the quickest." 06:47 So Dennis and I, we began to run. 06:50 But I thought, there's a main road, 06:52 and I thought to myself, 06:54 "I think if I take this back a little road, it's a shortcut, 06:59 and I can beat him back to camp. 07:01 So I'm going to not take the path I know, 07:04 but I'm going to go this back way 07:05 'cause he doesn't know it's a shortcut." 07:08 And you know what happened? 07:09 I ran, and I ran, and I started looking around, 07:13 and I didn't recognize anything. 07:16 I was out in the woods. 07:18 There was just hundreds and hundreds of acres, 07:21 millions of acres of just woods in Shawnee National Forest. 07:25 And I suddenly realized I'm by myself, 07:28 and the sun started to go down behind the trees. 07:32 My first thought is, 07:33 "Oh, I'm going to be in trouble. 07:35 My parents are going to be upset." 07:37 Second thought was, "I am in trouble. 07:40 I don't want to stay all night." 07:41 I'm scared. I'm just a little boy. 07:43 I might act tough, 07:45 but I don't want to stay out in the woods 07:46 all night by myself. 07:48 So you know what I did? 07:50 Folded my hands, 07:52 bowed my head, and I said, 07:53 "Dear Jesus, please get me back to camp safely, 07:58 and help me to get back 07:59 but not get in trouble with my parents." 08:01 Well, I might as well add that while I'm praying, right? 08:04 And I didn't know what to do, so you know what I did? 08:06 What would you do? I just started walking. 08:09 I thought, "Well, maybe, if I go back the way I came, 08:12 I'll be okay." 08:13 I walked and I walked, 08:16 and I still didn't recognize anything. 08:18 And I walked, 08:20 and all of a sudden, I saw a white house. 08:22 I had never seen that house, but was I glad to see a house. 08:26 I didn't care whose house it was, 08:27 at least I wasn't all by myself. 08:30 I ran to the door, and I knocked on the door, 08:33 and this little old lady came to the door. 08:35 She's probably old as I am now, 08:37 and I thought she was really old, 08:39 she came to the door and I was crying, she said, 08:41 "What's wrong, Son?" 08:43 I said, "I'm lost." 08:44 "You're lost?" "I don't know where I am." 08:47 "Well, come in, come in. 08:49 It's okay, don't cry." And you know what she did? 08:51 She made me some cookies, she had cookies there 08:53 and some milk, and normally, 08:55 I would've really eat that fast, but I thought, 08:58 "Oh, I'm so in trouble and I'm lost." 09:01 "Well, where are you going?" 09:02 And I said, "I'm trying to find 09:04 the Seventh-day Adventist Church camp." 09:06 "Oh, that's no problem. 09:08 It's just down the highway away. 09:10 How did you get so far away?" 09:12 "I got lost in the woods." 09:14 "How did you find my house?" 09:16 "I just prayed and asked Jesus to get me." 09:18 "Don't worry about it. 09:19 Eat your cookies and milk, 09:21 and I'll take you back to the camp." 09:22 So I got in her car, we get to the camp, 09:25 she lets me out in the driveway, 09:27 and I'm right where I was 09:29 when I started with my cousin and got lost. 09:31 This time I said, 09:32 "I'm going to take the road 09:34 that I know gets me back to camp." 09:36 First part of my prayer had been answered, right? 09:39 The Lord helped me get out of the woods, 09:41 but the second part was going to be tougher. 09:44 I knew my parents, 09:45 and if I didn't mind, Miss Cinda, 09:47 you knew my parents, I was in trouble. 09:48 You were in big trouble. 09:50 So I started running 'cause I wanted to hurry. 09:53 There was a fire going 09:54 and everybody was roasting their veggie hot dogs, 09:57 and the kids were all talking 09:59 and the parents were all talking. 10:01 And I ran up to my cousins 10:04 'cause I've been gone for two or three hours. 10:06 Of course, there is a big family, 10:07 we have a big family, and I said, 10:08 "Guess what everybody. 10:10 I'm back." 10:11 And my cousin, my brother they said, 10:13 "Oh, where have you been?" 10:14 I said, "I've been lost for hours." 10:16 "Oh, you were? 10:17 Well, you better eat your veggie dogs 10:19 before they're all gone." 10:20 So I grabbed mine, and I said, 10:22 "Wow, that's okay, but my folks will know. 10:25 Oh, Lord, please don't let me get in trouble. 10:28 I didn't get lost on purpose." 10:30 So I walked over and I was roasting the hot dog 10:34 and I looked over my parents, 10:35 and my dad looked over, and I said, "Hi, Dad" 10:38 And he said, "Hi, Son, how is it going?" 10:39 And I said, "Fine. Thank you, Lord." 10:42 He didn't even know I was gone all that time. 10:45 So the Lord answered prayers, 10:46 but do you know what the moral of the story is? 10:49 There are roads in life that we all take, 10:53 and you are going to have choices 10:55 to take different roads. 10:57 Your Moms and Daddies have taught you 11:00 that we should take the road that follows us to Jesus. 11:03 Make the right decisions in life 11:05 and don't wear off from the main road 11:07 'cause I went in the direction 11:09 I knew nothing about, and I got lost. 11:11 But as long as we keep focus, 11:13 Jesus is at the end of our road, 11:15 and if we keep focused to the end of the road, 11:18 guess what will happen? 11:19 We'll get to go to heaven and live with Him forever. 11:23 So let's make wise choices, but always remember, 11:26 when you're in trouble, what you want to do? 11:28 Pray. 11:29 You want to pray and guess who answers our prayers? 11:31 God. Jesus, God. Thank you. 11:34 Oh, thank you, Mr. Danny. 11:37 You're welcome. I loved that story. 11:39 That teaches us a good lesson, doesn't it? 11:42 Yes. 11:43 And we can always pray to Jesus, can't we? 11:46 Well, you know, Mr. Danny, we have a special for you, too. 11:49 Oh, good. 11:51 I'm excited. 11:52 Mr. Carter here has been practicing 11:54 and he wants to play a special song for you. 11:56 Wow. 11:58 And, boys and girls, I think you're going to like it, too. 11:59 I would love it. 12:01 Carter, can you show him what you're going to do? 12:02 I don't see an instrument. 12:03 I don't see your guitar or your piano. 12:05 Oh, just wait. 12:07 I don't see... 12:08 What in the world is that? 12:11 Tell him what... 12:12 Tell the boys and girls what that is. 12:14 A harmonica.

Okay. 12:34 Oh, you're going to like this, boys and girls. 12:58 Beautiful, in fact, God is so good. 13:01 Oh, thank you, Carter, I loved that. 13:05 Let's sing our prayer song right now. 13:07 And, Sabby, would you have our prayer? 13:10 I will bend my knees 13:13 I will fold my hands 13:17 I will bow my head 13:21 I will close my eyes 13:24 And very, very quiet be 13:29 While the prayer is said 13:33 Dear Jesus, thank You 13:34 that you gave us a good worship. 13:36 Amen. Amen. 13:40 That's Mr. Rooster. 13:42 That's all the time we have for now. 13:44 We'll see you tomorrow. 13:53 Worship bells are sweet calling us to meet 13:57 With our best friend Jesus 14:01 Come and worship here Jesus will be near 14:05 Smiling when He sees us 14:13 Worship bells are sweet calling us to meet 14:17 With our best friend Jesus 14:21 Come and worship here Jesus will be near 14:25 Smiling when He sees us |
