save farris

I've been praying for a sign.
I keep over analyzing everything.
One dollar bills, youth groups, brochures, absence, flickering lights, underlined words, lyrics, shapes, dreams, friendships.
postcards?

God, I am so selfish to keep asking. I hope you aren't getting tired. I keep getting little things that make me think you are trying to find me. Am I not trying hard enough to find you?

It is so stupid, but the message on this postsecret hit me.
Then I noticed my name.

God, do you exist? Are you trying to send me a sign?
I know you can't storm down here and part a sea. You can't send your son again just to prove yourself to me. How far will you go to get my attention? How important am I?

I feel like a stupid little girl whenever I talk about you.
I feel like time is running out. Send me something or someone soon.

Please, God, fix this.
It's been too long.

I am disgusted by my disbelief.
I am disgusted that I feel You should be worrying about me.
There is so much work to be done, God.
I'm sorry.


why are you scared to dream of God
when it's salvation that you want?

farris today I was locked out of my house and for se reason did. Not have my phone to call my mom. i have no car to go anywhere and none of my neighbors are home mysteriously. I don't know what made me look at your facebook and I specially done know why I clicked on your website. I just happened to have my iPod with me and an Internet connection I just want to tell you that I KNOW that there is a god when I see all the love in this world. I have never really felt gods love until I realized that I couldn't feel it cause I didn't think I deserved it and the truth is I don't but he still loves me. It took me awhile to grasp the concept that no matter what I've done I will always have his love.
