Nothing I Wanted

by Ronni

I was troubled
I prayed for strength
He...
tenured me with difficulties
to learn to be strong

I was confused
I sought wisdom
He..
presented challenges
to solve with wit and will

I longed for the good
and easy life
He..
endowed me with a
body and brain with
which to live it

I was uncertain
and asked for courage
He...
guided me to Faith
to overcome

Ever restless
I sought patience
He..
placed me in times
I could do nothing but wait

Often lonely
I longed for belonging
He..
led me to people
I could not refuse to help

Still presumptous
I sought a few favors
He..
set forth opportunities
in front of me

Curious it is
that I recieved nothing
I asked for
Yet
I recieved everything
I needed

Who doubts still...
that prayers go unanswered?
