I will give you difficulties to make you strong. I will give you danger to overcome. It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up. Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me. The child's spirit is whole, and it's body is only temporary.
Patience is a bi-product of tribulations.
It isn't granted, it is earned. I give you blessings. Happiness is up to you. I will give you opportunities. You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
