A Portrait of God | 上帝的画像

English Original

A little boy was drawing a sketch with pencil and paper.

When his mother asked what he was doing, he answered immediately and with considerable pride: "I am drawing a portrait of God."

Surprised and concerned, his mother said: "You cannot do that. No one has ever seen God. No one knows how God looks."

But the little boy replied confidently: "Well, when I get through, they will know."

他的妈妈问他在干什么时,他立刻非常自豪地回答道:“我在画一幅上帝的肖像。”

他的妈妈既惊讶又担忧,说道:“你不能这样做。没有人见过上帝,谁也不知道上帝是什么样子。”

但小男孩自信地回答:“等我画完了,他们就会知道了。”
