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 a brain and the strength 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 favours...
And God gave me opportunities.

I didn't receive anything I wanted.
But I received everything I needed.

And thus my prayers were answered.
