Blog: inbox indiscretions # 5...  



I have several things keeping me busy - even on the Sabbat and even on the Lord's Day - hence, why not indulge once again in pre-prepared blog posts I found in the not-so frozen section of my inbox... hmm?
Verily, these actually come from the warmest corner of said inbox!
Read on and you shall see why... once again!
God Said No

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, 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 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... Ahh, finally you're beginning to get the idea.

If you love God, send this to ten people and
Back to the person that sent it.

THIS DAY IS YOURS DON'T THROW IT AWAY

May God Bless You,

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

"May the Lord Bless you and keep you,
May the Lord Make his face shine upon you,
And give you Peace.....Forever"
"Good friends are like stars...You don't always see them,
But you know they are always there
