Who is God?

In a public school, a teacher asked his disciples, "Who is God?" The first question addressed the pupil named Mahfud. Mahfud said that God is the judge who judges the wicked. Mahfud's father was a judge.

Then the teacher asked Andi, who is a god? Andi replied, God is a doctor who could cure all ills. Andi's father is a doctor.

The teacher said to Anthony, who is God? Anthony said that God is able to provide everything. Anthony's father is a conglomerate which are always to the wishes of her son.

All children have the same question and they answer that question based on their perspective on the work of their respective fathers.

Tedy had arrived at that question. Teachers know that Tedy is not rich like his friends who live well off. Tedy's head bent down, not daring to look his teacher.

The teacher then asked Tedy, who God is? Tedy quietly replied that God is a "scavenger".

Class becomes chaotic and noisy because Tedy answers. How could God as "scavengers". Then the teacher asked, why Tedy say that God is 'scavenger'?

Tedy said that a scavenger take things that are useless, collect and clean it so it becomes useful. My dad also picked me off the streets and bring me home to his house. I fosterage, schooled, to be useful. If my father did not take me, whether I am right now so is the fate of the street. Thus the Lord for me to be like a "scavenger". He took a useless and turn it into useful. All classes are silent and without the teacher was moved to tears. Indeed what god do you think?
