Requests and Answers

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

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

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

What do you ask God for?

Every day I have to ask God for His guidance. When I go my own direction it's usually a disaster. Thanks for the reminder!
