"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 here 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 besides bedtime. God doesn't have time to
listen to the radio or TV on account of this. Since He hears
everything, not only prayers, 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 parent'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 OK. 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, of course. You can pray anytime you want and they
are sure to hear 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 very good 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."
