God Changed Me By: Isaac Albright

Chapter 3: People Mock God and Me

                          It was Thursday and I was happy as could be. Then when the first period bell rang I went to chorus and sat down beside my friend Katie. Well she told me that her cousins told her that after I would leave to catch my bus the people that I didn't know that were listening to me read the bible would laugh and mock me and make fun of me. I tried not letting that get to me as the day went on but I couldn't help it. So after the eighth period bell rang I went to the buses and sat at bus three and I told the people that either they can take this serious and stop acting like little kids or they can leave and they told me that they would be serious. So I read the bible to them and within three minutes they were acting like little kids so I moved up the bleachers and read to myself.  They just sat there and looked at me like I was crazy but I just ignored their smart little annoying comments about me.

                   I woke up the next day on Friday and went through my morning routine. I went to school got through school ok and after the eighth period bell rang I went to the buses. I sat down at a bus and these two girls came up and said teach us about God Isaac so I started reading to them. Then as I was reading they started laughing and I ask them to please take it serious for God is not a joke. Then one of the girls looked at me and said," well God can suck it." My mouth dropped and I told them I hope God has mercy on you two. They just kept on laughing and laughing and I just shook my head. I was surprised that someone would say that about God my precious God. So when I got home I thought to myself how could anyone say that about God when he has done so many good things for us. People that don't believe in God say if God is real then why wont he do anything about all the poor people and all the wars. I know what non-believers ask because I was once a non-believer too. Well God has the power to stop all the wars and help the poor but he want because he put us on the earth to do that we have the power in us we just have to have Faith in God.

                           So I went on with my day just wondering why anyone would say that about God. I thought and thought about it and I just said to myself I cant let evil people into my life if I want to grow close to God. Then I stopped thinking about it and just let it go. That night I went to sleep and I had a dream more of a nightmare.  I found myself running in a dark forest at night. I was scared half to death I saw a bunch of demons and dark angles I started yelling why God why are you letting this happen!! I have not understood that dream even till this day. All I know it was horrifying  and scary.
