And God said, “No” to a Multi-Level Marketer

I asked God to give me a big organization
and God said, “No.”
He said He gives courage
and it is up to me to build it.

I asked God to give me knowledge to build this organization
and God said, “No.”
He said He gives wisdom
and it is up to me to learn.

I asked God to take away my pride so that I will learn
and God said, “No.”
He said it was not for him to take away
but for me to give it up.

I asked God to give me happiness
and God said, “No.”
He said He gives blessings
but happiness is up to me.

I asked God to make my spirit grow
and God said, “No.”
He said I must grow on my own
but He gave me a ‘Book’ to guide me.

I asked God to help me love my associates
as much as He loves me.
And God said,
“Ah, finally you understand Multi-Level-Marketing.”
