 I asked God to take away my pain.
God said, No.
`It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.'
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.
God said, No.
`Her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.'
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 God for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No.
'I will give you life so that you may enjoy all things.'
I asked God to help me love others, as much as he loves me.
God said...
`Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.' |
