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.
Stop telling God how big your storm is. Instead tell
your storm how big your GOD is!
