God said, No.Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned. 
I asked God to give me happiness. 
God said, No.I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you. 
I asked God to spare me pain. 
God said, No.Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.

God said, No.You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful. 
I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life. 
God said, No. 
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.
