A Creed For Those Who Have Suffered




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 for God...



I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life
I was given life, that I might enjoy all things...



I got nothing that 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!
