[] AND GOD SAID NO.....

>I asked God to take away my pride,

And God Said NO!

It is not for me to take away,

but for you to give up.

>I asked God to make my handicapped child whole

And God Said NO!

Her spirit was whole,

her body was only temporary.

>I asked God to grant me patience

And God Said NO!

Patience is a by-product of tribulations;

it isn't granted, it is earned.

>I asked God to give me Happiness.

And God Said NO!

I give you Blessings,

Happiness is up to YOU.

>I asked God to Spare me Pain.

And God Said NO!

Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares,

And brings you closer to Me!

>I asked God to make my Spirit grow.

And 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

And 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.

And God Said NO!

God said...Ahhhh,

finally you have the idea!!
