00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:19.740
And<00:06:17.620><c> this</c><00:06:17.879><c> girl</c><00:06:18.180><c> did</c><00:06:18.420><c> not</c><00:06:18.660><c> come</c><00:06:18.879><c> from</c><00:06:19.060><c> a</c><00:06:19.220><c> rich</c><00:06:19.420><c> family.</c>

00:06:19.740 --> 00:06:22.759
And<00:06:20.319><c> we</c><00:06:20.500><c> know</c><00:06:20.699><c> that</c><00:06:20.899><c> because</c><00:06:21.120><c> of</c><00:06:21.339><c> words</c><00:06:21.459><c> that</c><00:06:21.620><c> she'll</c><00:06:21.879><c> say</c><00:06:22.060><c> later</c><00:06:22.399><c> on</c>

00:06:22.759 --> 00:06:26.470
as<00:06:23.079><c> we</c><00:06:23.220><c> look</c><00:06:23.379><c> at</c><00:06:24.740><c> the</c><00:06:25.139><c> wonderful</c><00:06:25.639><c> speech,</c>

00:06:26.980 --> 00:06:31.740
the<00:06:27.199><c> eruption</c><00:06:27.779><c> of</c><00:06:28.779><c> spiritual</c><00:06:29.459><c> joy</c><00:06:29.959><c> when</c><00:06:30.839><c> she</c><00:06:31.060><c> speaks</c><00:06:31.339><c> to</c><00:06:31.500><c> her</c>

00:06:37.660 --> 00:06:39.560
So<00:06:38.079><c> here's</c><00:06:38.240><c> what</c><00:06:38.399><c> we've</c><00:06:38.620><c> got.</c>

00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:47.319
God<00:06:41.759><c> decides</c><00:06:42.339><c> he</c><00:06:42.680><c> is</c><00:06:42.939><c> going</c><00:06:43.279><c> to</c><00:06:44.540><c> bring</c><00:06:44.860><c> his</c><00:06:45.259><c> child</c><00:06:45.540><c> into</c><00:06:45.759><c> the</c><00:06:46.000><c> world</c>

through<00:06:48.459><c> a</c><00:06:48.819><c> poor</c><00:06:50.160><c> young</c><00:06:51.759><c> girl</c><00:06:52.439><c> in</c><00:06:54.040><c> a</c><00:06:54.339><c> bad</c><00:06:54.560><c> town</c><00:06:55.360><c> in</c><00:06:57.579><c> Israel.</c>

00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:06.459
Now,<00:07:02.839><c> if</c><00:07:02.939><c> you</c><00:07:03.079><c> were</c><00:07:03.319><c> planning</c><00:07:03.600><c> as</c><00:07:03.839><c> a</c><00:07:04.019><c> human</c><00:07:04.220><c> being</c><00:07:04.579><c> to</c><00:07:06.000><c> raise</c>

00:07:12.459 --> 00:07:14.740
you'd<00:07:12.660><c> go</c><00:07:12.759><c> and</c><00:07:12.879><c> you'd</c><00:07:13.220><c> find</c><00:07:13.500><c> a</c><00:07:13.779><c> place</c><00:07:13.939><c> where</c><00:07:14.139><c> you</c><00:07:14.160><c> could</c><00:07:14.339><c> buy</c><00:07:14.560><c> a</c>

00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:22.620
That's<00:07:18.199><c> a</c><00:07:18.379><c> big</c><00:07:18.839><c> criterion</c><00:07:19.480><c> for</c><00:07:20.199><c> people</c><00:07:20.639><c> in</c><00:07:21.540><c> the</c><00:07:21.779><c> States.</c>

00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:27.959
It's<00:07:25.279><c> that</c><00:07:25.500><c> way</c><00:07:25.639><c> in</c><00:07:25.879><c> Canada,</c><00:07:26.339><c> but</c><00:07:26.680><c> less</c><00:07:27.000><c> so.</c>

00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:31.279
So<00:07:28.319><c> you'd</c><00:07:28.540><c> find</c><00:07:28.620><c> a</c><00:07:28.779><c> good</c><00:07:28.980><c> school</c><00:07:29.199><c> district,</c><00:07:29.720><c> first</c><00:07:29.920><c> of</c><00:07:30.160><c> all.</c>

00:07:31.540 --> 00:07:36.740
Then<00:07:32.019><c> you'd</c><00:07:32.399><c> be</c><00:07:32.600><c> looking</c><00:07:32.899><c> for</c><00:07:33.240><c> a</c><00:07:33.379><c> place</c><00:07:33.579><c> where</c><00:07:34.540><c> there's</c><00:07:36.379><c> a</c><00:07:36.540><c> low</c>

00:07:39.160 --> 00:07:42.860
You'd<00:07:39.399><c> want</c><00:07:39.519><c> to</c><00:07:39.620><c> be</c><00:07:39.720><c> in</c><00:07:39.819><c> a</c><00:07:39.959><c> place</c><00:07:40.120><c> where</c><00:07:40.300><c> you</c><00:07:40.399><c> could</c><00:07:40.639><c> get</c><00:07:41.519><c> a</c><00:07:42.120><c> job</c>

or<00:07:43.379><c> jobs,</c>

00:07:44.660 --> 00:07:47.519

00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:49.459

00:07:50.060 --> 00:07:53.259
And<00:07:50.459><c> you'd</c><00:07:50.699><c> want</c><00:07:50.819><c> to</c><00:07:50.980><c> know</c><00:07:51.120><c> that</c><00:07:51.399><c> the</c><00:07:51.860><c> place</c><00:07:52.060><c> that</c><00:07:52.259><c> you</c><00:07:52.420><c> moved</c><00:07:52.600><c> into,</c>

00:07:53.259 --> 00:07:57.220
the<00:07:54.220><c> property</c><00:07:54.680><c> prices</c><00:07:55.139><c> would</c><00:07:55.379><c> not</c><00:07:55.560><c> just</c><00:07:55.720><c> be</c><00:07:56.100><c> stable,</c>

00:07:57.420 --> 00:08:01.199
but<00:07:57.620><c> they</c><00:07:57.800><c> would</c><00:07:58.000><c> be</c><00:07:58.259><c> on</c><00:07:58.439><c> an</c><00:07:58.720><c> upward</c><00:07:59.100><c> incline</c><00:07:59.740><c> over</c><00:08:00.079><c> time.</c>

00:08:02.579 --> 00:08:06.459
So<00:08:03.019><c> you</c><00:08:03.180><c> would</c><00:08:03.339><c> have</c><00:08:03.480><c> chosen</c><00:08:03.779><c> exactly</c><00:08:04.420><c> the</c><00:08:04.879><c> opposite</c><00:08:05.699><c> kind</c><00:08:06.199><c> of</c>

00:08:11.220 --> 00:08:18.060
because<00:08:11.860><c> you</c><00:08:12.060><c> would</c><00:08:12.240><c> have</c><00:08:13.160><c> used</c><00:08:13.639><c> all</c><00:08:14.920><c> of</c><00:08:15.259><c> the</c><00:08:15.639><c> quote</c><00:08:15.839><c> unquote</c><00:08:16.399><c> logical,</c>

human<00:08:19.980><c> rule</c><00:08:20.620><c> sets</c><00:08:21.040><c> to</c><00:08:22.139><c> move</c><00:08:22.319><c> into</c><00:08:22.540><c> a</c><00:08:22.699><c> situation</c><00:08:23.100><c> like</c><00:08:23.420><c> that.</c>

00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:26.899
But<00:08:24.540><c> God</c><00:08:25.279><c> does</c><00:08:25.600><c> the</c><00:08:25.860><c> opposite.</c>

00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:30.720
God<00:08:28.600><c> does</c><00:08:28.860><c> the</c><00:08:29.139><c> exact</c><00:08:29.620><c> opposite.</c>

00:08:32.059 --> 00:08:35.779
And<00:08:32.299><c> not</c><00:08:32.500><c> only</c><00:08:32.720><c> does</c><00:08:32.860><c> he</c><00:08:32.980><c> do</c><00:08:33.179><c> that,</c><00:08:34.879><c> the</c><00:08:35.080><c> young</c><00:08:35.299><c> man</c><00:08:35.500><c> doesn't</c>

And<00:35:33.360><c> she</c><00:35:33.599><c> knows</c><00:35:34.300><c> when</c><00:35:35.420><c> I've</c><00:35:35.780><c> made</c><00:35:35.900><c> that</c><00:35:36.599><c> suggestion</c><00:35:37.099><c> to</c><00:35:37.300><c> him,</c>

And<00:36:53.039><c> she</c><00:36:53.360><c> leaned</c><00:36:54.059><c> heavily</c><00:36:54.960><c> on</c><00:36:55.860><c> him</c><00:36:56.519><c> as</c><00:36:57.480><c> she</c><00:36:57.739><c> raised</c><00:36:57.920><c> the</c><00:36:58.199><c> children,</c>

00:37:10.380 --> 00:37:14.179
This<00:37:10.659><c> beginning</c><00:37:11.260><c> of</c><00:37:11.559><c> miracles</c><00:37:11.940><c> did</c><00:37:12.219><c> Jesus</c><00:37:12.659><c> in</c><00:37:12.920><c> Cana</c><00:37:13.159><c> of</c><00:37:13.380><c> Galilee</c>

00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:46.239
The<00:37:44.159><c> family</c><00:37:44.420><c> might</c><00:37:44.639><c> be</c><00:37:44.820><c> a</c><00:37:44.900><c> bit</c><00:37:45.039><c> embarrassed.</c>

Jesus<00:38:05.099><c> would</c><00:38:05.300><c> help</c><00:38:05.519><c> them</c><00:38:05.739><c> out.</c>

00:38:07.179 --> 00:38:12.139

00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:16.920

00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:22.719
Mary<00:38:19.719><c> knew</c><00:38:20.019><c> that</c><00:38:20.219><c> this</c><00:38:20.460><c> was</c><00:38:20.760><c> God's</c><00:38:21.619><c> Son.</c>

00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:26.579
She<00:38:23.900><c> knew</c><00:38:24.119><c> that</c><00:38:24.300><c> there</c><00:38:24.460><c> was</c><00:38:24.679><c> something</c><00:38:25.059><c> in</c><00:38:25.440><c> him</c><00:38:25.679><c> and</c><00:38:25.820><c> about</c><00:38:26.099><c> him,</c>

00:38:41.619 --> 00:38:50.320
might<00:38:41.679><c> we</c><00:38:41.980><c> infer,</c><00:38:44.099><c> that</c><00:38:44.380><c> Mary</c><00:38:45.219><c> believed</c><00:38:46.420><c> Jesus</c><00:38:48.480><c> could</c><00:38:48.840><c> do</c><00:38:49.159><c> something</c>

00:39:02.199 --> 00:39:05.480
We<00:39:02.579><c> might</c><00:39:02.800><c> read</c><00:39:02.980><c> too</c><00:39:03.179><c> much</c><00:39:03.340><c> into</c><00:39:03.579><c> it.</c>

Or<00:39:06.039><c> that</c><00:39:07.400><c> might</c><00:39:07.559><c> be</c><00:39:07.739><c> the</c><00:39:07.880><c> case.</c>

00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:14.480
Is<00:39:11.219><c> that</c><00:39:11.500><c> why</c><00:39:11.980><c> Jesus</c><00:39:12.500><c> answers</c><00:39:13.059><c> the</c><00:39:13.199><c> way</c><00:39:13.320><c> He</c><00:39:13.500><c> does?</c>

00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:20.579

Well,<00:39:42.460><c> I</c><00:39:43.280><c> can't</c><00:39:43.699><c> do</c><00:39:44.019><c> something</c><00:39:44.320><c> like</c><00:39:44.639><c> that.</c>

00:39:45.780 --> 00:39:47.820
It's<00:39:46.139><c> not</c><00:39:46.340><c> the</c><00:39:46.559><c> time.</c>
