A Horse Called Bear Page #6

Maybe you could stop by and

I'll teach you how to play.

- We would like that.

- Our series on the golden

rule is almost over,

so what have you learned?

- That you never know

when something's going on

with another person?

- Yeah they might be being mean to you

just 'cause someone's being mean to them.

- It's always better to be nice to them.

- It might show them a

better way of how to be kind.

- We became friends

with Hannah this summer.

- Well tell us about it.

- She's our friend now.

- I really like her a lot!

- That pleases God when

we do what he says!

Especially when it is difficult

and doesn't seem to make sense.

Allison?

- We were kind to Mister Otto

when he came to church today.

- (laughing) God is so good isn't he?

We are to love others just

as Jesus has loved us.

And he loved us so much that he gave

everything he had to buy us back.

- What's this?

- A gift.

- I can't take this.

- It's to help you get Bear back.

- We even did extra chores.

- And we even added in

the contest winnings.

- I even broke my piggy bank.

There was over $20 in there!

- How did you know I was

trying to buy Bear back?

- Hannah told us.

(shushing)

- I don't think I can take your money.

- We want to help you.

- Please!

- Thanks!

Thanks a lot!

There it is.

Every cent of the money

you asked for for Bear,

including the extra thousand.

Took everything I had and a

little help from my friends.

I hope you're happy.

- Yeah.

Got some big time bills now.

Gonna be needing this.

- Hey.

- I'm sorry my dad

overcharged you for Bear.

- I'm just glad to have him back.

I shouldn't have sold

him in the first place.

- He wasn't always like that.

Something happened when my mom died.

- I'm sorry.

It must be difficult for you.

Anytime you're in the area you

should come by and ride Bear.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- That'd be cool!

Happy birthday to you

(cheering)

- Thank you guys for coming.

- We wouldn't miss it.

- Of course!

- This is for you.

- What's it say?

- It's a scholarship,

from college!

(laughing, affirming)

- All right!

- Did you know about this?

- (clearing throat) Well I confess,

we did.

- But Ethan, I did talk to them,

I told them you might be interested,

but you only have 48 hours to respond.

- Yes, yes, yes, I'll take it!

This is wonderful!

In fact, if you'll excuse me.

I'll go call right now so

I don't miss the deadline.

(laughing, applauding)

- OK, who's ready for some cake?

- Me!

- Me!

- Come on Allie, you can do it.

- I'll be right here sweetie,

you'll be totally fine.

- I think I should wait.

- No no, it's OK, I'll help you up.

(applauding)

(uplifting music)

- Can we please do this one more time?

Please?

- Hey!

- Hey.

- What are you doing out here?

- Just going to feed Bear one last time,

feel like coming along?

- Sure.

I think everyone will

miss you when you go.

- Yeah, I'm gonna miss

everyone right back.

I'm gonna look forward

to every break I can get

to come back here.

- Yeah.

- God has a plan,

I'm just trying to follow it.

Love you Bear, gonna miss you buddy.

Mom...

- I had a dream last night about Sara.

- Really? I did too.

She was riding.

- And she turned and waved goodbye?

- That's the one.

- Wow. (laughing)

- I'm gonna miss you when you're gone

so I got you something special.

- Austin,

this is your winning

picture, I can't take this!

- I could always draw another one.

- Well thanks!

I'm gonna miss you too.

(uplifting music)

I've gone too far

I've lost my way

This pain I've caused

Life falls apart

Cruel things I've said

You turn away

Regret it breaks my heart

Is this a dream

Please show me now

Forgiveness is it real

I humbly beg

Your mercy Lord

Please set me free this day

I see your face

Reach out my hand

But you're no longer here

Can you forgive

And understand

The sadness that I feel

Is this a dream

Please show me now

Forgiveness is it real

I humbly beg

Your mercy Lord

Please set me free this day

You hear me lord

You give your grace

The answer to

My earnest prayer

The burden lifts

My shame erased

This is a whole new day

It's not a dream

I know you know

Forgiveness is real

I humbly take

Your mercy Lord

You set me free this day

It's not a dream

I know you now

Forgiveness it is real

I humbly take

Your mercy Lord

You've set me free this day
