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
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!"
