An Apology Letter To God

A Story by Laura Harrison

I believed in you when I was younger. I would pray to you all the time and hoped that you would answer. I never asked for anything, I just treated you like a friend- someone to confide in and tell all my secrets to. Because I was alone; I was the girl who never got invited to parties, the girl who had to eat her lunch in the school toilets. But I guess you had more important matters to attend to, because I never heard from you or even had a sign that you had listened to my prayers. So I started to lose my faith in you a little bit more every time someone avoided me in the school hallways. I branded myself an atheist and people told me that my life would be so much better if I believed in you, that all my prayers would be answered.

But I continued my life with low faith, holed up in my room with only a book for company. Until one day, by chance encounter, I met the person that I want to spend the rest of my life with. The person who loved me for exactly the way I was and was my best friend as well as my lover. I realized then that you must have been listening to me all along, but you were just waiting for the right moment to bring this special person into my life; someone who you knew would never hurt me. So I’m sorry, God, for ever doubting you, because I should have realized that you wouldn’t create the world just to ignore the people in it.

This is really good Laura :) i can also really relate to it, because i thought at one stage god must hate me, nothing went right for me either, i was bullied allot, and i thought there was going to be nothing good to come to me, but then Mark came along and he must be my gift from god.
This is a very strong and powerful story, has lots of emotion and depth to it.
Its even better because you wrote this straight from your heart. AMAZING WRITE LAURA!
