I asked God to take away my pride.
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 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 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!

If you never felt pain,
Then how would you know that I'm a Healer
?

If you never went through difficulties,
How would you know that I'm a Deliverer
?

If you never had a trial,
How could you call yourself an overcomer
?

If you never felt sadness,
How would you know that I'm a Comforter
?

If you never made a mistake,
How would you know that I'm forgiving
?

If you knew all,
How would you know that I will answer your questions
?

If you never were in trouble,
How would you know that I will come to your rescue
?

If you never were broken,
Then how would know that I can make you whole
?

If you never had a problem,
How would you know that I can solve them
?

If you never had any suffering,
Then how would you know what Jesus went through
?

If you never went through the fire,
then how would you become pure
?

If I gave you all things,
How would you appreciate them
?

If I never corrected you,
How would you know that I love you
?

If you had all power,
Then how would you learn to depend on me
?

If your life were perfect,
Then what would you need me for
?
