God I thank You for pain, because it shows us how precious and rare true pleasure is, I thank You for confusion, because it allows us the opportunity to find clarity; frustration, because it allows us room to develop patience; for weakness, because it allows us to become stronger; for ignorance, because it allows us to learn.

–from Ne-Yo’s “Year of the Gentleman” thank-you liner notes

For all the flack celebrities get for thanking God and leading a lifestyle that does not glorify God, I was amazed at the depth of wisdom in the words above. I’d be eager to know if he actually wrote them himself. What are your thoughts on celebrities and their God-thank-you’s?
