Unanswered Prayer

I asked God for what I wanted
I guess he didn't hear my plea
I got nothing that I asked for
But I got all I'll ever need.

The game of life involves so many unanswered prayers..... too often I find I should have given more thought to what I asked for; some of the answers to my prayers didn't turn out as I expected... Excellent poem, with much genius reflected in it!

A wonderful perspective at this Christmas time. A time to count our blessings, and catalogue our joys.
