Searching for God

Searching for God
By Lulwa, Salima & Nazish
Age 14

We have used the "Message in a Bottle" idea to say "Thank You" to God, to show that God is everywhere and therefore can receive this message.

We have also chosen this theme "Giving Thanks" to show how much we love and respect God, and are very thankful for everything God has given us.
We believe it is important to say "Thank You" because we are showing how grateful we are for everything God has done for us. Sometime we forget that everything we have is because of him.
For example: Family, good health, and roof over our heads. Also, because we don't know where God is and so by putting a message in a bottle we are hoping God will find it, wherever he is. He knows we are thankful. Always. The Message inside the Bottle reads:-

God
786 Everywhere in the world
Universe
PO Box: Galaxy

Dear God
I am writing to tell you how thankful I am for everything you have done for me…
I know you are watching me my every move and I know that you are guiding me to the right path.
My life has been great and I have enjoyed living as who you wanted me to. You are the One and Only, the Almighty and I believe in you. You answer my prayers and I am very thankful for it…
Please continue to do your good work and everyone will be very, very thankful for it just like me.

Yours sincerely
Lulwa, Salima, Nazish
