Just thought I'd share
Feb 14th, 2005 at 10:00am
 
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...Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.


"May the Lord Bless you and keep you,
May the Lord Make his face shine upon you,
and give you Peace.....Forever"

"Good friends are like stars...You don't always see them, but you know they are always there."

Mar,

This is one of my all-time favorites . . . makes a person think about all we have and why we have our trials.  Thanks for putting it up, and thanks even more for being one of my blessings!

Smiley, Jill

Always have loved that one, Mar !!!!  Always good to read when your day is difficult and makes you stop and realize that the good, the bad, and the crazy is all part of life, we all go through it from the time we are born til the time we pass on.....so much that I alone have gone through has made me who I am....when my darkest days approach I think..."hang in there Carol..there is a reason for this...all part of his plan."....and for some reason I feel better immediately after.  Smiley...and just continue on.

Warmest HUGS,  CarasMOM
