a blast from the past...

was checking out my old blog... http://cauldr0nb0rn.diaryland.com/ so emooo..... its from the days when i was still in ocs, a budding midshipman, going through alot of shit then...
anyway found this post that i liked and still like...

I asked God to take away my pride and God said, 'No'.He said it was not for Him to take away but for me to give up.

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole and God said, 'No'.He said the body is only temporary.

I asked God to grant me patience and God said, 'No'.He said patience is a by-product of tribulation. It isn't granted, it's earned.

I asked God to give me happiness and God said, 'No'.He said He gives His blessings. Happiness is up to me.

I asked God to spare me from pain and God said, 'No'.He said sufferings draw me apart from worldly cares and bring me closer to Him.

I asked God to make my spirit grow and God said, 'No'.He said I must grow on my own, but He will prune me to make me fruitful.

I asked God if He loved me and God said, 'Yes'.He gave His only Son who died for me and I will be in heaven someday because I believe.

I asked God to help me love others as much as He loves me and God said, 'Ah, Finally you have the idea!'
