Today in Temple the children conducted part of the service. This prayer was read and, although I have heard it before, it somehow rang truer today than when I first encountered it years ago. Enjoy The Blessing of Unanswered Prayers I asked for strength that I might achieve; I was made weak that I might learn humbly to 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 had asked for, but eveything that I had hoped for. Almost despite myself my unspoken prayers were answered; I am, among all men, most richly blessed.
