A Young Person's Response to God Print E-mail

Jodie Lee Booker (aged 12) wrote this on the whiteboard in the God's Gang room. It is worth sharing with everyone.

God loves us:

I know God loves us when others are happy;
nice, sunny days;
when having fun;
people are smiling;
when the whole world is happy;
when I know God is near me

Thanking God:

I thank God for flowers, grass and trees;
food and drinks;
water;
school;
playgrounds and parks;
for this world and the earth

Why God is special:

He created us;
He gives us food to eat and water to drink;
He created living things - animals, people, us!
He created trees, plants, grass and flowers

God created this earth:

He created all people and all living things;
weather;
beautiful features like waterfalls, rainbows, lakes and the ocean

How do you know if people believe in God?

If they are Christians;
If they are Catholic;
If they go to Christian schools or Catholic schools;
If they wear a 'cross' necklace;
If they own a Bible;

Sarah Louise Booker (aged 10) added this:

God did lots of things for us. He made us, animals, plants, water, weather, lightning, thunder and rain.

How would you express your faith and what you believe about God? You could write a statement of faith based on your experience of knowing that God loves you. What could you thank God for? Does God have a special place in your life? How do others know that you believe in God? Thanks, Jodie and Sarah, for sharing your faith with us.
