                      And God said No

          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 is whole,
                        her body is only temporary.
          I asked God to grant me patience, and God said, No.
                  He said that patience is a by-product of
                   tribulation; it isn't granted, it's earned.
          I asked God to give me happiness, and God said, No.
                         He said He gives blessings;
                           happiness is up to me.
            I asked God to spare me pain, and God said, No.
              He 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.
                    He said I must grow on my own, but
                He will prune me to make me more fruitful.
           I asked God if He loved me, and God said, YES!!!
                 He gave His only Son who died for me, and
               I will be in heaven someday because I believe.
        I asked God to help me love others as much as He loves me,
                              and God said,
                      "Ah, finally, you have the idea."
