Just letting you guys know I found this long quote from Pinterest and Fell in love with the words so I thought I could share it. 😊

"I asked God to take away my habit. 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 but his body is only temporary. I asked God to grant me patience. God said no. Patience is a byproduct 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 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 God for all the 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 ahhh, finally you get the idea. 💝
