God's Cake

Sometimes we wonder, "What I did to deserve this?" or "Why did God have to do this to me?"

Here is a wonderful explanation: a girl’s telling her mom how everything is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving.

Meanwhile, her ma’s baking a cake & asks her daughter if she’d like a snack. The girl says, "Yes, I love your cake."

Here, have -some cooking oil," her mom offers. "Yuck" says the girl. "How about raw eggs?" mom asked.

"Gross, ma!"

“Would you like some flour or baking soda?" mom added.

"Mom, those are all yucky!"

To which the mother 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: We often wonder why He lets us go through such bad 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 &, eventually, they’ll all make something wonderful!

God’s crazy about you. He sends you flowers every spring & 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 this, send this on to the people you really care about. I did. I hope your day’s a "piece of cake!" Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.
