Prayers of an Unknown Confederate Soldier

Agatha Nolen July 23, 2019

I asked God for strength that I might achieve,
I was made weak that I might learn to humbly obey.

I asked for health that I might do greater things,
I was given infirmity that I might do better things.

I asked for riches that I might be happy,
I was given poverty that I might be wise.

I asked for power that I might have the praise of men,
I was given weakness that I might feel the need of God.

I asked for all things that I might enjoy life,
I was given life that I might enjoy all things.

I got nothing I asked for — but everything I had hoped for.
Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.

I am among all men most richly blessed.

                                                            -Included in the Oxford Book of Prayer (1985) #395
