Grandma’s Wisdom

By, Mike

There was once a little boy who told  his Grandma how everything was going wrong in his life such as his grades in school, his problems with friends, his mom and dad’s health problems, their never having enough money, and on and on he went.

As he was relating his problems, his Grandma was baking a cake. She asked her grandson if he would like a piece of the cake after it was finished, and of course he did.

She then replied, “Here, have some cooking oil.” “Yuck,” said her grandson. “How about a couple of raw eggs then?” “Gross, Grandma!” “Would you like some flour then — or maybe some baking soda?” Her grandson replied, “Grandma, these things are all yucky!”

The Grandma replied, “Yes, all these things seem bad in and of themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake.”

Brethren and friends, God works in exactly the same way. As His followers, we wonder why He allows us to go through bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work together for good! (Romans 8:28).

Let us therefore rejoice that we can be a part of the finished product! (Hebrews 12:1-10; Psalm 119:75).
