This was
written by an 8-year-old
named Danny Dutton, who
lives in Chula Vista, CA.
He wrote it for his third
grade homework
assignment, to
"explain God."
I wonder if any of us
could have done as well?
.... and he had
such an assignment, in
California, and someone
published it, I guess
miracles! do happen ! ...
EXPLANATION OF
GOD:
"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 grownups,
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. Because
he hears everything,
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
Mom and Dad's 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 God's 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
O.K."
"His dad (God)
appreciated everything
that he had
done and all his hard
work on earth so he told
him he didn't have to go
out on the road anymore.
He could stay in heaven.
So he did. And now he
helps his dad out by
listening to prayers and
seeing things which are
important for God to take
care of and which ones he
can take care of himself
without having to bother
God. Like a secretary,
only more
important."
"You can pray
anytime you want and they
are sure to help you
because they got it
worked out so one of them
is on duty all the
time."
"You should always
go to church on Sunday
because it makes God
happy, and if there's
anybody you want to make
happy, it's God!
Don't skip church to do
something you think will
be more fun like going to
the beach. This is wrong.
And besides the sun
doesn't come out at the
beach until noon
anyway."
"If you don't
believe in God, besides
being an atheist, you
will be very lonely,
because your parents
can't go everywhere with
you, like to camp, but
God can. It is good to
know He's around you when
you're scared, in the
dark or when you can't
swim and you get thrown
into real deep water by
big kids."
"But...you shouldn't
just always think of what
God can do for you. I
figure God put me here
and he can take me back
anytime he pleases.
And...that's why I
believe in God."
