SOLDIERS PRAYER
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, inspite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am, among all men, most richly blessed. ~ Author Unknown ~
“Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.”
James 4:3
