An answered prayer

I asked for strength,
And God gave me difficulties to make me strong;
I asked for wisdom,
And God gave me problems to learn to solve;
I asked for prosperity,
And God gave me brain and strength to work;
I asked for courage,
And God gave me dangers to overcome;
I asked for love,
And God gave me people to help;
I asked for favours,
And God gave me opportunities.
I received nothing I wanted
I received everything I needed.
My prayer has been answered!




I want to thank my lovely friend Igor for share this poem with me.
It's so beautiful because is so true.

Let' s stop asking for things we want and ask for things we need.
