Jeg er glad for alt jeg har og denne teksten

[mamma søker barn-har fått 2]

får meg til å tenke på det:-)

Jeg er ikke spesielt religiøs, men jeg må smile litt når jeg leser teksten.

Garth Brooks spiller den i bakgrunnen nå.

Og da synes jeg det bare er rett og rimelig at jeg deler den med dere:-))

 

 

 

 

 

"Unanswered Prayers"

 

Just the other night at a hometown football game

My wife and I ran into my old high school flame

And as I introduced them the past came back to me

And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be

 

She was the one that I'd wanted for all times

And each night I'd spend prayin' that God would make her mine

And if he'd only grant me this wish I wished back then

I'd never ask for anything again

 

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers

Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs

That just because he doesn't answer doesn't mean he don't care

Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

 

She wasn't quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams

And I could tell that time had changed me

In her eyes too it seemed

We tried to talk about the old days

There wasn't much we could recall

I guess the Lord knows what he's doin' after all

 

And as she walked away and I looked at my wife

And then and there I thanked the good Lord

For the gifts in my life

 

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers

Remember when you're talkin' to the man upstairs

That just because he may not answer doesn't mean he don't care

Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

 

Some of God's greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...

Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers
