God Said No - Christian Devotion - Methodist
 Who Is Jesus?

 

  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, "...Ahhhh, finally you have the right idea."

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear…those who do not know God run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. “But… Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” 
Matthew 6: 25-34
