Little Jimmy was laying in the middle of a meadow on a warm spring day. Soon, he began to think about God.
“God? Are you really there?” Jimmy said out loud. To his astonishment a voice came from the clouds.
“Yes, Jimmy? What can I do for you?”
Seizing the opportunity, Jimmy asked, “God? What is a million years like to you?”
Knowing that Jimmy could not understand the concept of infinity, God responded in a manner to which Jimmy could relate, “A million years to me, Jimmy, is like a minute.”
“Oh,” said Jimmy. “Well, then, what’s a million dollars like to you?”
“A million dollars to me, Jimmy, is like a penny.”
“Wow!” remarked Jimmy, getting an idea. “You’re so generous…can I have one of your pennies?”
God replied, “Sure thing, Jimmy! Just a minute.”
