I asked God for strength that i might achieve...
I was made week that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health, that i might do greater things...
I was given infirmities that i might do better.
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 am, among all men, most richly blessed.
