THANKS
FOR THE CAKE
A
little boy is telling his Grandma how "everything" is going wrong.
School,
family problems, severe health problems, etc.
Meanwhile, Grandma is baking a cake. She asks the child if he would like
a snack, which of course he does.
"Here.
Have some cooking oil."
"Yuck"
says the boy
"How
about a couple raw eggs?"
"Gross,
Grandma"
"Would
you like some flour then? Or maybe
baking soda?"
"Grandma,
those are all yucky!"
To
which Grandma replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all by
themselves.
But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully
delicious cake! God works the same
way. Many times we wonder why he would let us go through such bad and difficult
times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they
always work for good!
We
just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something
wonderful!" ---unknown |
