I asked God to take away my pride.
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 by product 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 for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No.
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.

I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.
God said, Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.
If you love God, share love!

THIS DAY IS YOURS.
DON'T THROW IT AWAY.

To the world you might just be one person, but to one person you might be the world.

lthough things are not perfect

ecause of trial or pain

ontinue in thanksgiving

o not begin to blame

ven when the times are hard

ierce winds are bound to blow

od is forever able

old on to what you know

magine life without His love

oy would cease to be

eep thanking Him for all the things

ove imparts to thee

ove out of "Camp Complaining"

o weapon that is known

n earth can yield the power

raise can do alone

uit looking at the future

edeem the time at hand

tart every day with worship

o "thank" is a command

ntil we see Him coming

ictorious in the sky

e'll run the race with gratitude

alting God most high

es, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad but

ion waits in glory, where none are ever sad!

Have a blessed day!!!
