Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm.
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm.00:00:18
00:00:20
Hey!
That’s mine!00:00:22
00:00:23
That is so unfair.00:00:25
00:00:25
Oh!00:00:26
00:00:26
That reminds me
of Jehovah’s friend Mephibosheth.00:00:29
00:00:30
He was treated unfairly too.00:00:32
00:00:32
But how did he handle it?00:00:34
00:00:34
C’mon, let’s see his story!00:00:37
00:00:38
Mephibosheth was born
into the royal family of Israel.00:00:42
00:00:42
But when he was just five years old,00:00:45
00:00:45
his dad and grandpa died00:00:47
00:00:47
and his legs
were badly hurt in an accident.00:00:51
00:00:52
Despite all that,
Mephibosheth stayed happy.00:00:56
00:00:59
When he got older,00:01:00
00:01:00
Mephibosheth was invited
to King David’s home.00:01:04
00:01:04
David took care of him
and gave him many good things.00:01:08
00:01:09
Mephibosheth
appreciated this very much.00:01:13
00:01:14
Later on, when David
was in danger and had to run away,00:01:18
00:01:18
a man told him a bad lie
about Mephibosheth.00:01:22
00:01:28
And David believed him!00:01:30
00:01:32
As a result, Mephibosheth lost
all the good things he was given.00:01:37
00:01:37
That was totally unfair!00:01:39
00:01:45
But how did Mephibosheth react?00:01:48
00:01:48
He didn’t let it make him sad.00:01:52
00:01:52
He was so happy when David,00:01:54
00:01:54
Jehovah’s friend,
finally returned home safely.00:01:58
00:01:58
Mephibosheth
was thankful for what he had,00:02:01
00:02:01
and he didn’t worry
about what he’d lost.00:02:04
00:02:10
Jehovah’s friends are happy
with the good things they have,00:02:14
00:02:14
even when unfair things happen.00:02:17
00:02:17
So, what happened next
to Mephibosheth?00:02:19
00:02:19
Did he ever get his things back?00:02:21
00:02:21
Read his story,
and imagine you were there.00:02:25
00:02:25
Make time every day
to learn from Jehovah’s friends!00:02:28
00:02:31
What do you think?00:02:32
00:02:32
What did Mephibosheth do00:02:34
00:02:34
to show he was Jehovah’s friend?00:02:37
