Happy Sunday everyone 😃❤🙏
THE BLESSING IN "NO"
I asked God to take away my pride.
God said "No".
It is not for Me to take away,
but for you to give 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 asked God to help me LOVE others,
as much as He loves me.
God said... Ahhhh, finally you have the idea!
