I Asked God...

I asked God to take away my Pride and God said, "NO." He said it was not for Him to take it away but for me to give it up.

I asked God to grant me Patience and God said, "NO," again. He said patience is a by-product of tribulations. It is not granted, it is earned.

I asked God to give me Happiness and God, again, said, "NO." He said, he gave me so much blessings already and happiness is up to me.
