A PIECE OF CAKE
Sometimes, we wonder "What did I do to deserve this,"
or "Why did God have to do this to me."
Here is a God sent explanation!
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 her
grandson 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 them selves. But when they are put
together in the right way, they make a 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!"
God is crazy about you. He sends you flowers every
spring and a sunrise every morning. Whenever you
want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the
universe, and He chose your heart.
If you like, send this on to the people you really
care about. I did.
Hope your day is a "piece of cake!"
" Even the falling of the leaves has a reason..."
