One day a six-year-old boy asked his mother, “Where did God come from?”
"It is hard to understand,” she answered, “but maybe this will help us.” She took off her wedding ring, handed it to him and asked, “Where does this ring begin and where does it end?”
The boy turned the ring over and over in his hands and finally answered, “There isn’t any starting place or stopping place.”
Then his mother explained, “It is exactly the same way with God there was no beginning to God, and there will be no end to God. He always has been, and He always will be.”
