On butterflies and suffering..

Fr. Mike at Bending Yodi's Ear reminds us that God's ways are not our ways in this post.
I asked for Strength---
And "GOD" gave me Difficulties to make me strong.

I asked for Wisdom---And "GOD" gave me Problems to solve.

I asked for Prosperity--- And "GOD" gave me Brain and Brawn to work.

I asked for Courage---And "GOD" gave me Danger to overcome.

I asked for Love--- And "GOD" gave me Troubled people to help.

I asked for Favors---And "GOD" gave me Opportunities.

I received nothing I wanted. I received everything I needed.
Much wisdom in Fr. Mikes words--Read the whole thing here
