God Said NO!!

God Said NO!!


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 asked God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.


God said... My child, finally you have the idea.
