Noah sat down and wrote some thoughts about God the other day. He wants to share them in our house church, and I think I'll let him. Might make for an interesting conversation. Here are his words unedited.
The Meaning of Life written Noah S. Farmer
For years man kind has wondered several questions of life From why are we here to what is our purpose .There are four major questions life ,it’s reason ,
Our meaning ,and how we were made .These questions have been growing in our brains day by day and night by night .Every second ,minute ,and hour the question gets bigger and makes us even more insane about it .that’s what drove us into the mess of science .The people who believe science think the world and all existence where made by the Big Bang while on the other hand Christians think God made every thing with his voice .But I think both of them happened I say that God clapped his hands and caused the Big Bang which made every single bit of material and used his voice to make every thing from that material .I also believe that dinosaurs existed . I think they lived before the Garden of Eden but it is likely that it is true .I mean it says in the Bible that one thousand years is like a blink for God and a blink for God is like one thousand years .If you just think about how many times you blink a day and one blink is one thousand years the time in between would give the dinosaurs time to live before the Garden of Eden wouldn’t you agree that is a reasonable explanation I do. Oh I have a joke for you in the Bible when it says one thousand years is like the blink of an eye for God and for God one thousand years is like the blink of an eye .Dose that mean he is so slow that one thousand years pass in the time it takes him blink or dose it mean that time is so fast to him that in the time that he blinks one thousand years will go by in time’s wake ?Man kind might never know .The question is growing just like the question at the beginning of the page how the question of life grows in our heads day by day ,night by night ,and year by year .Questions they just keep on growing in side our minds ,souls ,and spirits. They are like a great big disease that spreads to any body who hear about it maybe questions are the meaning of our life, existence, meaning.
Perhaps we are here to ask and answer questions and to expand our knowledge. It is actually our job to ask questions because God made us to be his friends, because as friends our duty to ask questions because friends ask them. I am not talking about the simple how are you doing questions, I mean the deep down personal thoughts of life. Now I want you to think about it. What is the meaning of your life? Now when you have that answer I want you to write what that thing on a peace of paper so that every day you get sad ,discouraged ,or lonely you can just look at the peace of paper you wrote your meaning on and just think about how great of a meaning it is .And then maybe just maybe you will be filled with joy ,happiness ,and most of all the holy spirit .
(That's my boy! Be Blessed)

Dear Noah S. Farmer, I have never commented on a blog before, but I am so impressed by what you wrote! It sure gives me a lot to think about. I am very proud of you for considering such interesting and important subjects, and for sharing your thoughts with others. Thank you for encouraging us to ask questions and to have that kind of friendship with God!
Spence, I looked at Noah's picture before reading his essay, and thought to myself how much he looks like his dad. But after reading, I realized it's not just his looks...He's becoming a great thinker/communicator like you! And along those lines, we're looking forward to the next installment of your story!
Hi to Paula and Eden, too! Love and miss you all!

Jen, we miss you too. He is deep thinking and weird all at the same time. Maybe deep thinkers are just very unique people. Noah is definatly unique. He just ran into the room shouting "There are aliens in my pants." Deep thinkers are strange.
Cindy, thanks for commenting. We miss you so much. Paula will be back in January for three weeks, so you can at least see her then. As soon as this week is over I'll have a little more time to blog, so I'll get back to our story. Hope your Christmas is great.
Oh my. That part about God just wanting friends to ask him questions was one of the smartest things I've read in awhile. I'm going to quote Noah in my blog tomorrow.
Amazing!
Nelle, that part about the questions was the part that blew my mind. I think I need to ask God more questions because He's my close friend.
