A BEAUTIFUL PRAYER FOR THE NEW-YEAR

..

I asked God to take away my habit.

God said, No.

It is not for me to take away,

but for you to give 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 your own,

but I will prune you to make you

fruitful.

 

I asked God for all of the things I might

enjoy in 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 HAVE THE

IDEA!

 

This day is yours, don't throw it

away.

 

May God Bless you and keep you and those

you love.

 

Call God often and if you don't get an immediate

response try again. In

this world we live in it would seem reasonable to

realize that God may

be busy helping someone more in need of Him than you

at present.

 

love,

Jayashree
