I Asked God

I asked God for strength,
that I might achieve,
I was made weak
to humbly 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 of 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.

^^ I LOVE this poem
its gets me through all the tough times

Well I'm on my break and need to head about out towards Waianae in about 2 hours. I was planning on staying in Waianae during my break and just chill at "Tracks" and just sit and think about stuff but cause its a holiday there were a few too many people than I expected to be there so thus, I just came home. So while I'm here I might as well blog about the "Sponsor/Candidate" night we had last night. Yea I put it in "" 's IDK I'm just kind of upset that it got so huge cause it was supposed to be sponsors and candidates and I guess it just got out of hand. I was a bit disappointed that neither of my candidates could make it again but what can I do right. I really wished both of them came cause I wanted to have a talk with them both. 1 is already confirmed so shes stuck with me for life already muahahaha so I just wanted to talk to her about how I'm doing as her sponsor and what I can do and to let her know that she can always call cause I only live down the road ;) lol As for the other 1 she still has a choice whether or not she wants to "dump" me or keep me haha I know this is gay but I feel small kine ignored by her like we talk but its not like how it used to be. I wanna know what I have to do to be better cause if I'm not gonna be used like I should be then whats my purpose? I wanna vent but the words won't come out the way I want it to without getting the story twisted. So if ya wanna talk just hit me up and make me feel better =[ lol
