Title: I asked God Post by: new_self on May 01, 2003, 02:24:09 PM I asked God to take away my habit.
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. His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary I asked God to grant me patience. God said, No. Patience is a byproduct 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 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 ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me. God said...Ahhhh, finally you have the idea. I don't know who wrote this but it made me smile so I thought I would share :) ybiC new_self Title: Re:I asked God Post by: Ambassador4Christ on May 01, 2003, 04:42:44 PM Thanks new_life, its a keeper ;D
