SPACEMAN SPUD GETS WET
- Day Three
Pastor: Hey! It’s Space Man Spud! The first Irish astronaut! How are you today?
SMS: Oh, I’ve been better!
Pastor: I can tell. How did you get all wet? What happened to you?
SMS: It’s kind of embarrassing.
Pastor: Go on.
SMS: Well, you remember what Leonna taught us yesterday?
Pastor: About Jesus walking on the water?
SMS: That’s right. And do you remember that she said ONLY Jesus could walk on water?
Pastor: That’s right. Only Jesus could walk on the water.
SMS: Well, I didn’t believe her.
Pastor: Oh really!? So what happened?
SMS: I … uh… drove down to the river in my fancy Spud-Mobile, and then I uh… tried to walk across.
Pastor: You mean SWIM across don’t you?
SMS: Uh… no. I mean, I tried to walk across. You see, since I’m Space Man Spud, I thought I could do anything!
Pastor: And you found out that you can’t!
SMS: How did you know?
Pastor: You ARE kind of wet you know!
SMS: Oh yeah. I forgot.
Pastor: So what have you learned?
SMS: That Jesus CAN do ANYTHING. He’s really awesome! If He can walk on the water, then He is GOD!
Pastor: He can do a lot more than just walk on the water!
SMS: What else can He do?
Pastor: He can hear, and answer all our prayers at once. He fed 5,000 people at one time with just five loaves of bread and a few fish fingers. He gave blind men the ability to see again. And He resurrected people back from the grave!
SMS: Wow! Nothing can be better than all that!
Pastor: Not true! There is something even greater than all of that put together.
SMS: What’s that?
Pastor: He took the place of every boy and girl on the cross for all our sins, so we could be forgiven, and go to live with Him forever!
SMS: Wow!
Pastor: Pretty neat isn’t He? That’s why He is MY Saviour!
SMS: I don’t understand this Saviour part yet?
Pastor: Stay out of the water, and keep coming to Bible Club, and you will my friend.
SMS: I’ll do that. I can’t wait to see what else Jesus can do! And I’ve learned my lesson too - from now on… I’m using my Spud-Boat to cross any river. See you all tomorrow!
