“PIECE OF CAKE”
By Dr. Hoyt W. Allen, Jr.
The following
article came to me
recently and I
slightly edited it
and have written a
conclusion. Please
read on.
Sometimes we wonder,
"What did I do to
deserve this", or
"Why did God have to
do this to me". The
following 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!"
Plainly, don’t
get short changed.
Let’s be ready to
meet our Maker. The
Bible teaches that
to avoid hell and
gain heaven - one
must:
1) Believe In Jesus
As Savior (Acts
16:31) 2) Repent Of
Sins (Acts 17:30) 3)
Confess Christ
Audibly (Acts 8:37)
4) Be Baptized In
Water (Acts 2:38) 5)
Live A Christian
Life (Acts 14:22) 6)
Be Active In the
Church (2:47)
