A CREED FOR THOSE WHO HAVE SUFFERED

http://www.adrianpastol.com/

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve.
I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey . . . 

I asked for health, that I might do greater things.
I was given infirmity, that I might do better things ... 

I asked for riches, that I might be happy.
I was given poverty, that I might be wise ... 

I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men.
I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God .. . 

I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life.
I was given life, that I might enjoy all things ... 

I got nothing I asked for--but everything I had hoped for.
Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.
I, among all men, am most richly blessed!
 
How well do you relate to the above?
