Evan Almighty

"Let me ask you something. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?"
I must have subconsciously prayed for wisdom and intelligence lately, or else I wouldn't be having these "opportunities" sent down from the Big Guy in the form of torrential issues at work.
The road to wisdom...I'm half way there, my friend.

God Almighty never fail to answer to our prayers. That's why when you pray for 'wisdom', God gives you a brain.
