Wanted to start a thread on which all add to the story,,,,I don’t care who adds …But please be nice about it is a story of a little girl finding God….. thanks in advance for all the writing of the lord…..,




A little girl was being picked on in school. She was 7 years old and was really shy, she didn’t like the new school but her dad got a new job and she had to leave her friends once more and adjust to the new life. She thought of her mom as kids made fun of her dress. Her mom always said “When times are tough think of the promise land and God holding you tight in his arms.” She knew mom believed in this God, but dad was sometimes mean saying bad things about God it confused her.

Please continue this story

She didn't understand why her dad would say mean things about something that made her mom so happy. Was he jealous of God? The little girl didn't have time to think anymore about her parents. She had something huge to deal with. It was lunchtime and she was scared. She had to go to the cafeteria to eat her lunch and she didn't know anyone because of her shyness. How was she going to survive this? Why did her dad have to get a new job? She wished that there was at least one person who would walk into the cafeteria with her so she wouldn't be so afraid.

Please continue this story.....

"Why did dad have to get a new job? I wish at least one person would...", but before she finished that thought a little boy named James approached her and asked, "May I sit with you at lunch?" Delighted, she introduced herself as Emily as they walked into the cafeteria. While they were eating she told James that her family just moved in and she doesn't have friends yet. She also said that she isn't sure if God is real. "My mom loves talking about God but my dad says He's make-believe like Santa Claus", she said apprehensively. James said that God is real and a loving Father; he talks to God all the time through prayer. God watches over his family and recently healed his mother of a serious illness. He then assured Emily that she can have a relationship with God as well.

After school, James invited Emily to his little sister's birthday party...


Please continue the story. :)

Emily's spirit is ecstatically soaring with joy and excitement for the birthday party invite, that she almost forgot about the horror that awaits her on the school bus. She is jolted back to reality in the depths of her soul as she hears the sound of compression brakes when she comes out of the school building, from a late bus joining the lineup. Her heart begins to race, the bus is so big, her mouth goes dry. She looks around, it's like slow motion and entering a tunnel at the same time, she feels so small. She thinks, "here we go", as she steps up into the monster, it's like a living nightmare.

She isn't going to be lucky enough to find a seat close to the front today, but talking with James after school was worth it, she concludes as she heads down the isle. She's looking for a seat, trying not to completely lift her eyes up and forward.

Sarah looks up as she hears whispers. She doesn't understand the kids in this town. She's been here a couple months, she moves around a lot, doesn't mind change because it's all she knows. She's watching them as they begin to reject Emily the seat next to them. "Witch", one boy says. Then another slides to the edge blocking the open seat next to her, "No way, witch." Sarah sighs within herself, thinking, why doesn't that girl run a comb through her hair?! How could someone look so raggedy, her clothes! Emily's hair is long and jet black, wildly messy. This is why the kids are doing this, because of the way she looks, but Sarah thinks, it's not right... she's been watching this all week and that's not right either. She thinks, what is wrong with the bus driver! Why doesn't she do something!

"Witch!"

Alright, Sarah decides, enough. She stands up,"Hey... hey you." Emily, who is just a trembling shell, looks up. Sarah steps out into the isle as they make eye contact and says,"You can sit here", she gestures with her arm toward her seat,"You can sit with me", she says with a friendly smile. As Emily gets over there and situated. Sarah, who is used to being younger than those in her grade, because she started school early for her age... is not easily intimidated. She scans the eyes of the other kids and quiets the bullies with a piercing glare.

Emily says,"Thank you."

"Yeah." Sarah responds, but doesn't push conversation, because she can tell Emily is not only traumatized, but a bit shy. They ride quietly. Emily's stop is before Sarah's.

Thank you and God bless you & your family as well. I used to do facebook and on a board like this, back before the changed the format to groups, an online christian friend of mine started a story thread like this. I did not participate or really follow it after the first page, because I never attempted to creatively write in my life. Some people added to the story thread, a paragraph, a page full of paragraphs, even just a couple sentences, which is fine too.

People seemed to really enjoy it.

Anyway, I like reading, poetry, stuff... my friend knew this. He started lots of groups & different pages and he always made sure to include things of my interest "word association", "poetry thread", and threads for expressionism of thoughts. He started a liturature & writing group and anothe friend of ours added me to it. They were having a "short story" friendly contest, the energy was so influential & positive, fun, I enjoyed and trusted a lot of the people (online personalities) in the group, so, they inspired me, I was comfortable, encouraged an wrote my first story and entered it in the contest. Creative writing is fun. I have only written two stories & two poems in my life, well, and now the piece I added here. Some people are so gifted, wow, I enjoyed that group.

Maybe, just don't limit this thread, let people flow after two posts are made instead of four?

I have to agree with LovePink. There does not seem to be too much interest in this story so maybe we should change to 2-3 posts instead of 4. If the story really takes off and more people are contributing later, then move it back to 4? Just putting that out there so the story does not become a very short story.


Ultimately, though, I think the decision should be Pappy's. It is his thread:)

As the bus gets to Emily's stop - Sarah turns to her and tells her to have a good evening - then Sarah, without thinking what she was doing, said to Emily "Tomorrow morning I will save a seat on the bus for you." After Emily leaves the seat and walks down the aisle Sarah notices how sad she seems and wonders what makes her sad and thinks I wonder if there is anything I can do so Emily would not be so sad or scared. Emily got off of the bus but before she turns to walk toward her house she turned back to look at Sarah through the bus window. Sarah smile and waved. Emily waved back and she smiled back at Sarah. As Emily started walking toward her house she could feel she was smiling. She could not wait to tell her Mom and Dad about the nice girl on the bus and the nice boy, James, and the invitation to his sister's birthday party. Her heart was light and she was smiling as she walked in the door to their house.

But, her smile faded to confusion as soon as she entered her house. The kitchen, living room, and family room were all dark and empty. As Emily moved slowly through her house, she heard a muffled noise from the back of the house. She turned down the hall towards the bedrooms and realized the noise was coming from her parent's room. She walked quietly to the door, noting that it was slightly ajar. She peeked around the edge of the door and saw her mother on her knees before her bed, crying and......................talking to herself? Emily strained and was finally able to make out some of her mothers words. "Father, help him to see the truth about You. I want to raise our daughter to know and love You but, he says no--I will not lead her into some 'fairy tale' of beliefs......".

The sound of her mother's voice faded as she walked to her own room. This was not the first time that Emily had heard her mother talking to someone she called Father. Was her mom losing her mind? Why was she having conversations with invisible people? Where was her daddy? Emily's earlier happiness was replaced by sadness. How she wished she had gotten one of her new friend's phone numbers. She could call them and get back some of the joy she had felt earlier in the day.

That is when a loud knock sounded on the front door.
