Sometimes we want things that God does not want us to want. In many such   
   situations we don't know why God does not want us to want what we want, but   
   the reasons become evident later.   
      
   Jews wanted a king. God did not want the Jews to have a king; but they were   
   persistent, so God gave them what they wanted. They got a king; but he was a   
   bad king. King Saul did many wrong things, and being king he could get away   
   with it. The Jews,    
   undoubtedly, understood later why God did not want them to have a king; but by   
   that time it was too late.   
      
   When I was a teenager, I got tired of the stupid violence all around me and   
   wanted to have no violence in my life. My adult life has largely been free   
   from violence; but there are many things happened to me that were worse than   
   violence. God granted me a    
   wish that was against his wishes, and I had to live with the consequences of   
   that choice.   
      
   When someone is hell-bent on doing something, God will deliver. However, once   
   again, you will have to live with the consequences. Sometimes you understand   
   God's reasons, and sometimes you don't. In all cases however there is a reason   
   for God's decisions,    
   and it is important to understand this reason and do what is rightful in the   
   eyes of God.
