First let me tell you the story
once there lived a little girl named jess she had a younger brother called william
they used to go to the same school
one day after coming back home from school they were very hungry they wanted to eat something
that morning their mother had baked a cake
they opened the refrigerator and saw there was just enough left for each one of them
to have a slice william slurped seeing the piece of cake he said
let's have the cake with some milk i'll slice the cake while you go get us two glasses of milk
just happily went to the kitchen to get two glasses of milk for them
william began to slice the cake but the slices were not equal in size one was
much larger than the other by now jess had come to the table with two glasses of milk
william brought the cake and placed a small slice in front of jess and he himself took the larger
piece what have you done you gave me the small slice of the cake and kept the bigger one for
yourself that is so mean i would have never given you the smaller piece instead i would
have taken the smaller piece and given the large piece to you no you would have never done that
of course i would have i would have thought about you first william felt bad he knew he
was being selfish jess was hungry too like him i am sorry jess here take some more from me
william cut a piece from his own slice of cake and gave it to jess jess hugged william
they both laughed and began eating their cakes and drank up the milk
so the moral of the story is that god is good and if he gives us more than what we need we should
share it with those who do not have much we should never be greedy and keep everything for ourselves
all right i'm sorry for taking away the larger slice first the holy tales today i'll be telling
you the story of rebecca rebecca wow that's such a beautiful name i wish my name was rebecca
but your name is cute too freckles that it is all right then let us begin listening to the
story of rebecca the woman who relied on her own strength instead of trusting the lord completely
rebecca was the young wife of isaac and the mother of jacob and she was the daughter of bethel
when isaac was a young boy his father abraham was looking for a bride for isaac
so abraham sent one of his servants to the city of nahar to find a suitable bride for isaac
the servant looked everywhere in the city but did not find one
he was tired and exhausted so he sat near the well to rest while he rested he prayed to god that the
next young woman who came to the well and gave him water to drink will be the girl chosen as isaac's
bride as he prayed rebecca came to the well to get some water with a jar on her shoulder she saw the
servant tired and exhausted so she offered him and his camel some water to drink and some food to eat
immediately the servant knew that rebecca was the girl who god had sent to be isaac's wife
the servant brought rebecca to abraham and soon isaac and rebecca got married years went by but
rebecca and isaac had no children isaac prayed to god day in and day out without losing hope
soon god heard his prayers and blessed rebecca with twins jacob and esau jacob and esau were
the first twins mentioned in the bible even before they were born rebecca could feel the both of them
fighting inside her womb she prayed to god asking him the reason for the two brothers
fighting all the time to this god said rebecca you are going to give birth to two nations
they are both inside you right now and that's why they are at odds with one another
one shall be stronger than the other the older will serve the younger
soon it was time for rebecca to give birth esau was born first who grew up to become
isaac's favorite son while jacob was rebecca's in those days the practice was that the firstborn was
always entitled to receive birthright and since esau was born first he would have inherited the
birthright this saddened rebecca she loved jacob and wanted him to have it
it was jacob who tricked his own brother into selling him his birthright for a bowl of stew
later when isaac grew old and he was on his deathbed and could not see rebecca helped jacob
to deceive isaac into blessing him instead of esau she used goat skins on jacob's hands to
imitate esau's hairy arms years later a lot of things happened and esau was finally able to
forgive jacob when rebecca died she was buried in the family tomb a cave near mamor in canaan
which was also the resting place of abraham sarah and isaac later jacob was also buried in the same
tomb that was an amazing story holy thank you for telling us all about rebecca to watch more videos
please subscribe the holy tales today i was thinking of telling you the story of eve
eve as in the eve of adam that's correct freckles we have all heard about eve haven't we
we all know how it all began with adam and her so today we are going to hear the story of eve
eve is the very first woman in the whole wide world she is the very first wife and the very
first mother after god created the earth god created eve in his own image of woman
out of adam's rib and brought her to adam and called her his wife god said to adam
this is now bone of your bones and flesh of your flesh she will be called woman for she was taken
out of man god then made a garden for adam and eve to live in and called it the garden of eden
in the garden of eden there was a particular tree called the tree of knowledge
god said adam and eve you should certainly not eat the fruits of this tree or you shall die
eve was the first woman to meet satan in the form of a serpent satan tempted her to
eat fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and bad satan said you will certainly not die
god knows that if you eat from this tree you will be like god and know all about good and evil
just like he does eve gave in to the temptation to become wise and powerful like god
she even gave some to adam who at first refused but eventually ate it they completely disobeyed
god's command of not eating from the tree of knowledge god was very angry with them what
is this that you have done the serpent cheated me he tempted me to eat the fruit and i ate it
god asked adam and eve to leave from the garden of eden and toil and work for themselves
eve was very ashamed of her actions but she continued to be hopeful and faithful to god
her faith and love pleased god and he decided not to punish her by destroying her completely
he blessed her with children eve rejoiced she learned all about compassion and forgiveness
from god and had two children named cain and abel and eventually her descendants included jesus
the savior of the world that was an amazing story holy i loved it the holy tales
today we're going to hear the story of mary the mother of the son of god jesus
mary was a maiden who lived in nazareth a small town in the city of galilee
she was betrothed to get married to a young man called joseph who was a
carpenter mary was an obedient servant of the lord and blindly believed in god
one day as she was cleaning up her house an angel of god named gabriel appeared to her
and said mary god has chosen you as the woman who is going to give birth to the messiah
mary was scared gabriel said to her do not be afraid mary for you have found favor with god
you will soon bear a son and you shall name him jesus he will be the son of god and the
greatest of all the world will be his kingdom and there will be no end to it the faithful
obedient and trusting servant of god that mary was she submitted herself to the lord's will
she said whatever the lord says i am the servant of the lord but how will i bear a son
and the angel answered the holy spirit will come upon you and the power of god will overshadow you
and your holy child shall be born the earth will have with them the son of god saying this gabriel
left hearing this news mary immediately went to elizabeth elizabeth was the wife of zechariah
who was destined to give birth to john the baptist when elizabeth heard the news from
mary the baby in elizabeth's womb leapt in glory and soon elizabeth was filled with the holy spirit
she said you are the blessed one among all the women mary and blessed is the child you will bear
but why did the lord shower so much favor on me that the mother of my lord should come to visit me
the moment i heard your news with my ears the baby inside me left in joy
the lord has blessed you mary for the immense faith you have in the lord few days passed
and one night joseph had a dream an angel appeared to him and guided him to go to bethlehem with mary
the journey was long and very tiring for mary once they reached bethlehem it was time for mary to
give birth to the son of god soon mary gave birth to baby jesus in a manger where all the animals
bowed down at the sight of the baby it is believed that mary was jesus's first disciple
when jesus was still very young they were invited to a wedding at cana in galilee the wine at the
wedding had run out so mary came up to jesus and said they have no wine to this jesus replied very
gently what can i do mother my hour has not come yet mary understood what jesus was trying to say
she believed in his words and said to the servants do as he says that's when mary became jesus's very
first disciple she had faith in him as the son of god jesus was not the only child of mary mary gave
birth to other children also who were addressed as jesus's brothers in many places in the bible
the day jesus was to be crucified mary mary magdalene and mary's sister all of them
stood next to jesus's cross when jesus saw his mother he looked at john his most loved disciple
and said behold your mother then he looked at his mother and said behold your son
from that moment onward john took mary to his home and loved her no less than his own mother
after jesus's death mary the mother of jesus along with his 12 disciples and the other women
prayed together for the spirit in jerusalem they committed their lives to devotion and prayer
