Sometimes we wonder, "What did I do to deserve this?" or "Why did God have to do this to me?" Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how everything is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving away.
Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, "Absolutely Mom, I love your cake." Here, have some cooking oil," her Mother offers. "Yuck" says her daughter. How about a couple raw eggs?" Gross, Mom!" Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?" "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. 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. I hope your day is a "Piece of cake!"

That is so very true.. When I first being started developing an intimate relationship with Christ I use to wonder why God. I must admit sometime I find myself saying that right now, but I am learning like I think I was Paul be content in all things. Sometimes that is very very hard to do, but with God all things are possible.

I pray that each and everyone would have a piece of Jesus, but with him we can do all things. Have a good day

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

Amen!

We need to fix our heart and minds on Jesus. He knows how to mend and straigthen out our lives. When we feel like we have everything in control;God keeps inventory of His Disciples; and he is molding and shaping us for His service and GLORY.

May the Lord make this day a piece of cake!!!!!

The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, My strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Psalm 18:2

John Trevino
