finding meaning in life’s struggles

here is a poem that is extracted from a movie about a priest getting the third degree. 

Frank Vs. God

I asked God for strength
and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.
I asked for wisdom
and God gave me problems to learn to solve.
I asked for courage
and God gave me dangers to overcome.
I asked for love
and God gave me troubled people to help.

My prayers were answered.
