Wed'smotto of the day

Be careful what you wish for!

I saw this yesterday and I thought of this song by Garth Brooks:
; Just the other night 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 couldnt help but think of the way things used to be.

She was the one that Id wanted for all times
And each night Id spend prayin that God would make her mine
And if hed only grant me this wish I wished back then
Id never ask for anything again.

(chorus)
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when youre talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he doesnt answer doesnt mean he dont care
Some of gods greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.

She wasnt quite the angel that I remembered in my dreams
And I could tell that time had changed me
Inn her eyes too it seemed
We tried to talk about the old days
There wasnt much we could recall
I guess the lord knows what hes doin after all.

And as she walked away and I looked at my wife
And then and there I thankedd the good lord
For the gifts in my life.

*chorus*
Some of gods greatest gifts are all too often unanswered...
Some of gods greatest gifts are unanswered prayers

I liek that song...Its true. Sometimes we get so mad ta God thinkign our lives arent what we want and blame him but He knows what is he doing even if we don't. Thanks for that one Ryan-good reminder of why we should give thanks and what we should be greatful for this holiday.

everytime i hear that song --- i cry.

cause i remember how many times i prayed that my ex-BF and i would get back together, cause i was sooo sure that i would never find a love like him again.

i'm glad that prayer went unanswered---cause instead i found DH and he is the greatest gift i could ask for!
