What's your best friend's name? 05:23 Do you remember, Ben? 05:26 I don't remember what his name is, 05:29 but I know he is here. 05:33 Carter? Right. 05:34 Oh, you made me thinking. 05:35 Carter, what's your best friend's name? 05:37 You know why Ben said? You know what? 05:39 They just met today at Tiny Tots. 05:42 Oh. 05:43 And they're already becoming best friends. 05:45 Oh, you know, that fits right into my story 05:48 because I'm going to tell you about two boys 05:52 who met each other and just like 05:55 almost immediately became best friends. 05:58 Just like you two. 06:00 Yeah, do you remember the story 06:01 in the Bible about David, 06:03 the shepherd boy? 06:05 Well, right after he slung his swing, his sling, remember? 06:10 And he threw the rock 06:11 and he killed Goliath, the Giant. 06:14 Well, right after that, he met Jonathan. 06:17 Now Jonathan was King Saul's son. 06:20 And almost immediately after they met, 06:22 just like you two, they became best friends. 06:27 Now, they did lots of things together. 06:29 They galloped on the horses. 06:31 Right, here you can do a pretty good imitation 06:33 of galloping horses. 06:34 Yeah. 06:36 They galloped on horses together, 06:38 they shot arrows together, 06:40 they did lots of things together. 06:43 Sadly though, Jonathan, he was a soldier 06:46 and when he was in battle, he got killed. 06:49 And so after king... 06:51 After David the shepherd boy became King David, 06:55 one day he was thinking back missing Jonathan 06:58 because they loved each other so much. 07:01 So he was thinking back and after he became king, 07:05 he thought what can I do for Jonathan's family 07:09 because see, he had made a promise to Jonathan. 07:13 He said, "We have a promise 07:15 that I will take care of your family 07:18 if anything happens to you. 07:20 I will be kind to your family." 07:23 So he was thinking one day, 07:25 how could I be kind to his family? 07:28 Now Jonathan had a son and it's a hard name. 07:32 I don't think you have any friends by this name, 07:34 Mephibosheth. 07:36 Can you guys say that? 07:37 Can you say Mephibosheth? Mephibosheth. 07:39 Very good, Carter. 07:40 Yeah, takes a little practice. Can you say it, Cadence? 07:44 Very good. 07:46 Well, Mephibosheth, he actually, he was crippled, 07:51 he couldn't walk. 07:52 He was hurt when he was a little boy. 07:55 And so Ziba which was his servant, 07:58 as he was growing up in his family's house, 08:02 King David called Ziba and said Ziba, 08:04 I want you to go and see 08:06 if you can find any of Jonathan's family 08:09 because see Mephibosheth, 08:11 see I can't even say it. 08:13 Help her out. Mephibosheth. 08:16 Mephibosheth went into hiding 08:19 because he thought King David might hurt him 08:22 because he was related to King Saul 08:26 who was not very kind to David. 08:29 So anyway, they found Mephibosheth 08:32 and they brought him to King David. 08:35 Now Mephibosheth was very nervous. 08:37 He was like, 08:38 "What does the king want to do with me? 08:40 Is he going to hurt me?" 08:42 Would you think he was scared 08:43 that the king was going to hurt him? 08:45 He was. Yes. 08:46 But he came and he's like, "Okay," you know, 08:49 he bowed down to the king like he was supposed to 08:50 and King David said, "Don't worry. 08:53 Your father and I were best friends." 08:56 Do you know what BFF stands for? 08:58 Best Friends Forever? 09:00 Yes. 09:01 Your father and I were BFFs 09:03 and we promised to be kind to each other's family. 09:07 So I'm going to be kind to you. 09:09 I want to give you back land that your family had. 09:13 I want you to come, 09:14 sit at my table and eat with me. 09:18 Now, Mephibosheth, that was pretty cool. 09:21 He had not been at the king's table 09:22 for a long time. 09:24 So he came and ate with him and Mephibosheth 09:27 and King David became good friends. 09:30 How do you think that made Mephibosheth feel? 09:34 Good? 09:36 Yes! He was very happy. 09:37 Do you think he was very happy? 09:38 He was very happy. 09:40 But see, this is an example of King David, 09:43 made a promise to his friend and he kept it, no matter what. 09:49 And, you know, God is like that 09:51 and that God gives us promises and He keeps them. 09:56 Do you remember a story in the Bible 09:58 where there was a rainbow? 10:00 Noah in the Ark. 10:02 Noah in the Ark, exactly. 10:03 God promised He would never send rain on the earth again 10:07 that would wipe out everyone. 10:09 That was a promise that He still keeps. 10:11 And He also promises that 10:14 Jesus will come back to take us home. 10:16 Now, that's a promise we have to look forward to. 10:19 Yes. 10:20 But you know, He's also a God of promise, 10:22 but He wants us to keep our promises 10:25 to other people too, 10:27 because that shows that we are like God 10:30 when we keep our promises. 10:31 Do you think you can keep your promises? 10:34 When you promise your mom, or dad, 10:35 or your best friend, or your brother, 10:38 your sister something, can we say, 10:40 we're going to be like God 10:42 and we're going to keep our promises? 10:44 Can we do that? 10:45 Yup. 10:46 Well, and maybe when you go home too 10:48 for worship, 10:49 when your family worship, 10:51 when people in your family gets together, 10:52 you can all talk about the promises 10:55 that God has for us. 10:57 Maybe you can even sing the song we sang today. 10:59 What do you think, standing on the promises? 11:02 Think you can do that? 11:03 Yeah. Okay. 11:05 Should we sing it again? 11:06 I think that's a great idea. 11:08 Okay. 11:09 Let's sing that again because I like that song too. 11:12 Okay. 11:13 Standing on the promises of Christ my King 11:17 Through eternal ages 11:19 let His praises ring Glory in the highest, 11:23 I will shout and sing 11:25 Standing on the promises of God! 11:28 Get ready.
