Narrator: This incident happened during 1880s, in Italy's Bologna city. A boy named Guglielmo. His father Giuseppe was a religious person. To give the best education for his son, he asked teachers to come to his house to teach him. He made his son study by building a library inside his house and by bought many kinds of knowledge related books. Son Guglielmo grew up as a person with good knowledge and intelligence. One day during the evening hours, his father Giuseppe was praying. His lips were moving with Lord's prayer "Our gracious heavenly father". A growing up boy with knowledge started laughing by seeing this. Then the father asked, " Why are you laughing?" For that young Guglielmo answered, dad you are praying by saying, Our gracious heavenly father, where is that heaven? For that his father closed his eyes and looked unto sky and stretched his arms and said, above this sky, my son. For that the intelligent son asked, Dad how can the Lord hear your prayers who is far away from here. I am standing next to you but i am unable to hear it. He said this and giggled again. The father didnt get angry by seeing his son giggling at him for his prayers. He appreciated him and said, you are really intelligent. God has made you to think and ask this question. The same God will make you understand one day. He said this and continued his prayers with a smile. Days passed. Guglielmo grew up with the question, how the Lord in heaven will hear your prayers from here? Then he did some reviews and research. He proved that voice rays pass from many thick and thin things. He invented Wireless telegraphy. He made ways for boats and ships to send messages to seashores. He helped many in saving their life from tragedy. On 1901 December 12th, he fixed kite-supported antenna to receive signals and the distance between the two points was about 2,200 miles. He continued his research and found that we can send messages for thousands of miles. After so many researches, an Appreciation Ceremony was organized in his home town Bologna city. At the end of the ceremony, that young boy shared in his speech that, when i was a kid, i giggled and asked my dad, how can Lord hear your prayers who is far away from here. Even i am standing next to you but i am unable to hear. Now i can understand that, when people can hear messages from thousands of miles through the instrument which is invented by me, then the Lord will also can hear my dad's prayers. He finished his speech. Yes, do you know the name of that young Guglielmo's full name, who asked question? He is none other than Guglielmo Marconi, who is known as Marconi. As a result of continued research on how can the Lord who is far away from here, will hear your prayers, he invented radio. This radio is helping millions of people across the globe.
