About This Quote

An analogy is often used to describe God’s relationship with his creation. An example of this is the relationship between a parent and their child. When an infant is born, they are not able to speak or ask questions. Instead, the infant knows without questioning that they need to eat and be touched.

This is their first experience with what they call God. As time progresses, the infant grows into a young adult who begins to ask questions about what the world is like around them. They begin to learn about things like science and history, but they also grow into an adult who has yet to fully understand the world around them.

God is that parent that has always been present in each person’s life from the beginning.
