"Wow, Max! Should we take a trip to Mercury?" Henry exclaimed. "Absolutely, Henry! Let's go!" Sam replied. "Henry, did you know that Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun?" Sam asked. "Yes! It's only about 36 million miles away from the Sun. That's less than half the distance from the Earth to the Sun!" Henry replied. As the spaceship hovered above Mercury's surface, Sam said, "Henry, it's super hot here during the day. Temperatures can reach up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit!" "But at night," Henry added, "it gets really cold, as low as -290 degrees Fahrenheit. That's quite a swing! Imagine how difficult it would be to live here." Henry and Sam decided to wear their special space suits that kept them cool during the scorching day and warm during the freezing night. They stepped onto the planet's rocky ground, feeling a bit like explorers on a new world. While walking around, they spotted a small, friendly robot. "Hi there! I'm Mercury's Messenger. I was sent to gather information about this planet. Would you like to learn some fun facts?" "Sure!" Henry and Sam said in unison. "Mercury doesn't have an atmosphere like Earth," said the Messenger. "That's why its surface is covered in craters. The lack of air also means there's no wind, and the sky is always black, even during the day." "Wow! That's so different from Earth," Henry said. "How long is a day on Mercury?" The Messenger replied, "One day on Mercury lasts about 59 Earth days. But it orbits the Sun quickly, taking just 88 Earth days to complete one revolution. So, a year on Mercury is shorter than two Mercury days!" As they approached Earth, Henry said, "Sam, we learned so much about Mercury today! It's a fascinating place, but definitely not suitable for humans to LIVE." "You're right, Henry. But it was an incredible adventure, and I'm glad we got to explore it together," Sam replied with a smile.

Once upon a time, two friends named Alex and Poppy were playing on a sunny beach. They built massive sandcastles and splashed in the warm waves, laughing and having fun. Suddenly, the sky began to darken. The sun hid behind thick clouds, and a strange hush fell over the beach. The seagulls who were as loud as exploding fireworks, suddenly went quiet and flew away in the opposite direction of the ocean. "What’s happening?" asked Poppy, looking nervously at Alex. Just then, a gigantic wave crashed onto the shore. From the frothy water, a frightening figure emerged—a sea witch! She rose high above the waves, her long hair flowing like seaweed, and her eyes glimmered with mischief. The sea witch raised her sparkling triton and pointed it straight at the two friends. Before they could run, a magical pull tugged at them, and they were swept under the water! In the blink of an eye, Alex and Poppy found themselves in the sea witch’s shimmering underwater cave, surrounded by glittering treasures and colourful fish. The sea witch smiled wickedly. “You will help me find my lost crown, or you must stay here forever!” The sea witch became distracted by a family of lost turtles, trying to enter her underwater cave. Alex looked at Poppy, his heart racing. “We need to get out of here!” With a nod of agreement, they started to tip-toe behind the mountains of treasure in the sea witch’s cave. Suddenly, they spotted a golden starfish that shimmered brightly—it looked magical! “Let’s grab it!” shouted Poppy, reaching out. As they grasped the starfish together, a brilliant light filled the cave! With a bright flash, the starfish granted them one wish. The friends looked at each other, grinned, and shouted together, “Take us back home!” In an instant, they found themselves back on the sandy beach, the sun shining down once more. They cheered and hugged each other. “Where have you been?” Alex’s mum asked. “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you!” Alex laughed.

Amy Carmichael aprendeu uma importante lição sobre a proteção de Deus quando caiu em um buraco, fraturou a perna e precisou esperar por socorro por cinco horas. Durante o transporte ao hospital em condições perigosas, a caminhonete quase afundou em um buraco profundo, mas Deus os protegeu. Embora ela sofresse muita dor e não pudesse mais trabalhar ativamente no resgate de crianças, Amy aceitou que Deus ainda tinha planos para ela. Sua incapacidade de andar sem dor a obrigou a ficar no quarto, mas, ao invés de desanimar, ela usou esse tempo para escrever. A partir de seu quarto, Amy escreveu sobre sua experiência na Índia, a proteção e fidelidade de Deus, e o sofrimento que a aproximou ainda mais de Deus. Seus textos alcançaram cristãos ao redor do mundo, denunciando práticas como a venda de crianças aos templos, o que resultou em mudanças nas leis indianas. Seus escritos também inspiraram muitas pessoas a se tornarem missionários. Amy morreu em 1951, mas sua história continua impactando vidas. Ela dedicou sua vida a Deus, desafiando outros a fazerem o mesmo, seja em missões distantes ou no dia a dia. Amy acreditava que qualquer um, independente da idade, pode servir a Deus e compartilhar o amor de Jesus. Hoje, sua vida é um exemplo de dedicação e fé, inspirando outros a seguir seu caminho de serviço e entrega total a Deus.

Dostal si sa až sem, takže to asi myslíš vážne. A asi sa pýtaš, prečo som tento album nazval nový človek. Je to preto, že si myslím, že je to to najdôležitejšie, čo sa momentálne deje. Žijeme v zaujímavých časoch, blíži sa veľká zmena, rodí sa nové vedomie. Každý sa musí premeniť z larvy na motýľa. Príbeh je o človeku menom Nový, ktorý žije v mestečku Starý svet, kde je všetko hore nohami. Lekár, ktorý sa bojí byť zbytočný, otrávil celé mesto a teraz sú na ňom všetci závislí. Starosta, bojí sa smrti, zneužíva svoj vplyv a riadi všetko ako bábkové divadlo. Šerif zneužíva svoju moc, aby si zabezpečil svoje. V kostole sa smutné tváre modlia k Bohu, ale o živote na zemi vedia málo. V škole učia, že dva plus dva je päť, a deti prichádzajú o rozum. Rádio hrá stále tú istú smutnú pesničku. Nový sa jedného dňa prebudil a uvedomil si, že sem nepatrí. Rozhodol sa odísť, nevediac kam, ale nechce hrať toto staré divadlo. Príbeh pokračuje, a ty, nový človek, rozhodneš, kam pôjde.
