Wise Words No. 31 (God Requests)

Jan 26, 2010 by

“Let me ask you something.  If someone prays for patience, do you think God gives them patience?  Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient?

“If they pray for courage, does God give them courage, or does he give them opportunities to be courageous?

“If someone prayed for their family to be closer, you think God zaps them with warm, fuzzy feelings?  Or does he give them opportunities to love each other?”

God, from Evan Almighty
