Samson's Anger
(Liz on stage)
Liz: "Jesus loves me, this I know......(Enters stage) (Interrupts)
Butch:(Angrily) I just can't believe it.
Liz: (Stops) What are you so angry about?
Butch: I was at the skateboard contest.... I was doing so good. I was in 1st
postion after the morning trials.
Liz: Why does that make you angry?
Butch: Well we went to lunch you know. Mom took me for pizza cool, Sausage and
Pineapple.
Liz: And the pizza gave you gas, so you didn't win because you cut a big one....
Butch: No I didn't have gas.....
When I came back though....
somebody had messed with my skateboard trucks you know readjusted them.
Liz: So why didn't you fix it.
Butch: I had to skate first. Anyway I am gonna get those guys.
Liz: Well, who did it?
Butch: I don't know but they're all gonna get it.....
Liz: You should have come to street reach today.
Butch: Why
Liz: We learned about Samson.....well getting back at someone is the wrong
thing to do.....It lets the devil in!
Butch: So I should just forget about it?
Liz: This is what the Bible says."Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go
down on your wrath: Neither give place to the Devil....
Butch: Lets get come chocolate ice cream and you can tell me more!
(LEAVE STAGE TALKING)
Just Like Samson
Liz: Hey Butch, did you ever find out who messed with your skateboard
last weekend?
Butch: Well, you were right, I was jumping to contutions.
Liz: Jumping to what? don't you mean conclusions?
Butch: Whoa ' yeah that. My skateboard was cracked. No body messed with it.
Liz: Did you tell your skateboard buddies, the truth.
Butch: Guess that slipped my mind.
Liz: You're just like Samson.
Butch: You mean my hair, or my strengths?
Liz: No, first you get angry, then you lie about it.
Butch: Well at least I don't have to get a haircut. Bummer for Samson.
Liz: No, but you'll have to learn todays memory verse: Colosions 3:9-10
Lie not to one another, seeing tht you have put off the old man with his deeds:
and have put on the new man.
Butch: Whoa, thats a long one. How about you kids out there lets hear it, help out here.
Liz: Butch you say it.
Butch: Okay......Lie not to one another, seeing that you have put off the
old man with his deeds: and have put on the new man.
Liz: So, now you gonna tell your friends the truth?
Butch: Yeah, next time I see them.
Liz: I think we better go now. I want to see this!
Butch: Uncool Liz, Can we stop for chocolate ice cream.
Liz: Oh, Ok
(exit stage talking)
Ruth 1-4 10-24-98
Rewarded
(Butch on Stage) ( Singing)
Butch: " Surfer Joe, go man go, oh, oh, oh, Surfer Joe."
Liz: Hey Butch, what are you singing about?
Butch: It's an old Beach Boys song, " Surfer Joe". I'm so happy, so I'm singing.
Liz: What are you so happy about?
Butch: My new skateboard. Check it out. (both look at skateboard)
Liz: That's nice Butch, where did you get it? You don't have the money for that!
Butch: Well, my skater friends all pitched in and got it for me.
Liz: To replace your cracked one, that's all right. But they, I thought .....
Butch: After I apologized to them and told them the truth. They were all so.....cool.
Liz: Your story is kinda like Ruth's story from the lesson today.
Butch: How's that Liz.
Liz: Well, Ruth was true, and believed in God. Her kindness was rewarded.
Butch: Yeah, your right. I was rewarded.
Liz: Because you did God's wish, to tell the truth!
Butch: And like the memory verse: Roman 8:18 The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Liz: Having a cracked skateboard is hardly "suffering"
Butch: Having to tell my skater buds I was sorry was suffering though.
Liz: And His Glory was revealed to you with a new skateboard.!
Butch: Amen, chick.
Liz: Do you think there's any chocolate ice cream left at the Ice Cream Parlor.
(Leaving stage)
Butch: If not we'll get strawberry and Hot Fudge, lets go.
