“I Asked God…”
Sunday 22nd January, 2006
From SikhiUnleashed Forum
I asked God to take away my pride,
And God said, “No.”
God said it was not for God to take away, but for me to give up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole,
And God said, “No.”
God said her spirit is whole, her body is only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience,
And God said, “No.”
God said that patience is a by-product of tribulation. It isn’t granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness,
And God said, “No.”
God said God gives blessing. Happiness is up to me.
I asked God to spare me pain,
And God said, “No.”
God said suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow,
And God said, “No.”
God said I must grow on my own. But, God will prune me to make me fruitful.
I asked God to help me love others as much as God loves me, and God said, “Ah, finally you have the idea.”
