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 grant me patience.
God said, "No.
Patience is a by-product of tribulations;
it isn't granted, it is learned."
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 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."
