The Five Finstons: Jacob's Birth...

I Asked God...

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve.

I was made weak, that I might learn to obey.

I asked God for health, that I might do greater things.

I was given infirmy, 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.
