I Asked Jesus. He Answered in Ways I Never Expected.

Sometimes we ask God for one thing, and He gives us something better. I Asked Jesus is a beloved poem about faith, surrender, and trusting God’s response.

It speaks to anyone who has prayed and wondered if God was listening. However, the poem reminds us that His answer may come in a different way than we expect. Even then, His love remains constant.

This beautifully laminated Kilgarlin prayer card carries the full poem with gold color accents. Keep it nearby as a reminder to trust God’s timing. You can also give it to someone who is waiting, struggling, or learning to let go and let God lead.

The Poem

I asked Jesus, "How much do you love me?"
"This much," He answered, and He stretched out His arms and died.

I asked Jesus, "Why do you love me?"
Jesus answered, "Because you are mine."

I asked Jesus, "Will you always love me?"
Jesus answered, "I always have and I always will." Amen.
