God said no.
It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.
I asked God to cure my son from stage 4 Colon Cancer.
God said no.
His spirit is whole, his body only temporary

It isn't granted, it is learned.

God said no.
I give you blessings;
Happiness is up to you.

Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and
brings you closer to me.

God said no.
You must grow on your own,

God said no.
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.
I asked God to help me love others as much as He loves me.
God said Ahhhhhhh,
