I asked God to grant me patience. God said, No.
Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't
granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness. God said, No.
I give you blessings. Happiness is up to you.
I asked God to spare me pain. God said, No.
Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares
and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow. God said, No.
You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to
make you fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy in life. God said
No. I will give you life so that you may enjoy all things.
I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as God
loves me. God said... Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.
