Through the eyes of a child This was written by an eight year old. Danny Dutton, of Chula Vista. near San Diego, California, for his third grade homework assignment. The assignment was to explain God. Wonder if any of us could do as well? " One of God's main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace the ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of things on earth. He doesn't make grown ups, just babies. I think because they are smaller and easier to make. That way he doesn't have to take up his valuable time teaching them to talk and walk. He can just leave that to mothers and fathers. God's second most important job is listening to prayers. An awful lot of this goes on, since some people, like preachers and things, pray at times beside bedtime. God doesn't have time to listen to the radio or TV because of this, there must be a terrible lot of noise in his ears, unless he has thought of a way to turn it off. God sees everything and hears everything and is everywhere, which keeps him pretty busy. So you shouldn't go wasting his time by going over your mother and fathers head asking for something they said you couldn't have. Atheists are people who don't believe in God, I don't think there are any in Chula Vista. At least there aren't any who come to our church. Jesus is Gods son. He used to do all the hard work, like walking on water and performing miracles and trying to teach the people who didn't want to learn about God. They finally got tired of him preaching to them and they crucified him but he was good and kind, like his father and he told his father that they didn't know what they were doing and to forgive them and God said OK.   Submitted by Ken Return to Home Page
