And God Said

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 by-product 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 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 need this so much

I need a miracle

When sent to me, the cross was moving.

I hope it moves for you, too.
