I asked God Why


I asked God why I wasn't rich.
He showed me a man with the wealth of a thousand kings, who was
lonely, and had no one to share it with.

I asked God why I wasn't beautiful.
He showed me a woman more beautiful than any other, who was ugly
because of her vanity.

I asked God why He'd allowed me to become old.
He showed me a boy of 16, who lay dead at the scene of a car accident.

I asked God why I didn't have a bigger house.
He showed me a family of six, who had just been evicted from their
tiny shack, and were forced, to live on the street.

I asked God why I had to work.
He showed me a man, who couldn't find a decent job, because he'd never
learned to read.

I asked God why I wasn't more popular.
He showed me a socialite with a thousand friends, who all left the
moment the money and parties were no longer there.

I asked God why I wasn't smarter.
He showed me a natural born genius, serving life in prison for making
ill use of his knowledge.

I asked God why He put up with a thankless sinner like me.
He showed me His Bible. He showed me His Son who took my place at the
judgment.

I asked God why I should share this with you.
He put a smile on my heart and said, because there are others who
don't believe it's true.

I knew then how much He loved me.
Have a blessed day!!!
