I saw this and thought I'd share it with you all:
I asked God to take away my habit but God said No. It is not for me to take away but for you to give it up. [spiny]

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole but God said No. His spirit is whole but his body is onlt temporary. [1zhelp]

I asked God to grant me patience but God said No. Patience is a by-product of tribulations it isn't granted it's learned. [mad2]

I asked God to give me happines but God said No. I give you blessings but happines is up to you. [clap2]

I asked God to spare me pain but God said No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly things and draws you closer to me. [Kiss]

I asked god to make my spirit grow but God said No. You must grow on your own but I will prune to make you friutful. [wiggle7]

I asked God to give me all things that I might enjoy life but God said No. I give you life so that you might enjoy all things. [hyper]

I asked god tohelpo me love others as much as He loves me and God said Ahh..... finally you have the idea. [Kiss]

May god bless you
To the world you are be somebody but to somebody you are the world.
