And God said “Noâ€.
He said it was not for Him to take away, but for me to give up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.
And God said “Noâ€.
He said her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience.
And God said “Noâ€.
He said patience is a by-product of tribulations. It isn’t granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness.
And God said “Noâ€.
He said He gives me blessings, happiness is up to me.
I asked God to spare me pain.
And God said “Noâ€.
He said suffering draws me apart from worldly cares and brings me closer to Him.
I asked God to make my spirit grow.
And God said “Noâ€.
He said I must grow on my own. But He will prune me to make me fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life.
And God said “Noâ€.
He said He will give me life, that I may enjoy all things.
