WHO MADE GOD
This account is taken from an actual conversation by two children in Newport, England: Five-year-old Dorothy mused, “Mama, it does puzzle me so who made God! Because, you see, He must have been made by somebody, for He couldn’t have made Himself, could he?” Eight-year-old Oswald answered, “But you know . . . He is a spirit; we can’t see Him; He hasn’t got a body!” Dorothy responded, “Yes, but He sent Jesus with a body that we might know what He was like.” She paused and then continued: “But, perhaps, after all, He did make Himself, for you know He can do some very clever things!” From Seed Thoughts for Public Speakers, by Arthur T. Pierson, Revised Edition of 1916, published by Funk & Wagnalls, New York & London, #441 on pages 216 and 217
