Something that had to be shared

Wed Oct 14, 2009, 1:40 AM
Whilst I was browsing the net, I found this poem:



I asked God to take away my pride. And God said "No".
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 "No".
He said her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.

I asked God to grant me patience. And God said "No".
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 "No".
He said He gives me blessings, happiness is up to me.

I asked God to spare me pain. And God said "No".
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 "No".
He said I must grow on your own. But He will prune me to make me fruitful.

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life. And God said "No".
He said He will give me life, that I may enjoy all things.

I ask God to help me love others, as much as he loves me.
And God said "Ah, finally you have the idea!"



It was written by a Claudia Minden Weisz (the mother of a Rett Syndrome child)Here's the link to the website if you want to take a look: [link]

Um, Glory? Could you put a notice in your journal that I have created a continual series of Christian Stamps for everyone to fave? I don't know how else to get it out to Jesus lovers out there! You don't have to make it the whole subject of your journal, just put it at the end of your daily devotional. If that's all right with you of course! I've just gotten so inspired to praise the Lord lately and I thought I'd make some stamps to Glorify God! Pweese and thank you!:boogi: :nod:
