An answered prayer

I asked for strength -
and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.

I asked for wisdom -
and God gave me problems to learn to solve.

I asked for prosperity -
and God gave me brain and brawn to work.

I asked for courage - 
and God gave me dangers to overcome.

I asked for love - 
and God gave me troubled people to help.

I asked for favours -
and God gave me opportunities.

I received nothing I wanted. 
I received everything I needed.
My prayer has been answered.
