Be Careful What You Ask For.


My daughter, Christine, needed a job and had an interview with a natureopath. She wanted that job so much. She said she begged and begged God to give it to her. She got it, but they hired two women. She wasn't all that happy there. After just two weeks they let my daughter go. She was devastated. She had never lost a job before.

Later, she had an interview to work at a doctor's office. She didn't think she would like working there so she asked God to not let them hire her. They hired her last week. She has worked there a week and loves it. She loves the doctor and the work. The doctor already gave her a raise and praises her all the time for what a good worker she is. Christine has never been so happy at a job.

Sometimes we can beg God for something that will not make us happy and He will give it to us because we ask. Sometimes the things we don't think will make us happy, do make us happy. Who is to know? Only God, which is why it is always best to say to Him after we pray, "Not my will, but your will be done."
