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 Mom 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. Her daughter says, “Absolutely Mom, I love your cake!!!!”
“Here, have some cooking oil,” her Mother offers. “YUCK!” says her daughter.
“How about a couple of raw eggs?”
“Gross Mom!!!”
“Would you like some flour then? Or baking soda?”
“MOM, all those things are YUCKY!”
Mom 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 in His
order, they always work out for good! We just have to trust Him and eventually they
will all make something wonderful!
I am Holly Griffin. I am the youngest Griffin and I am 11 years old. I have been
working on my Faith in God award since I was 8 years old. I have learned how to
give family home evening lessons, I have memorized the articles of faith. I have
given talks in Primary along with prayers. The Faith in God award has helped me to
try to read my scriptures and is teaching me to be a better person.
I am so thankful for the church and all the things that my family has taught me to
help me make good choices in my life. I am only in the sixth grade and I can already
see a difference between the way I act and the way other kids act. I already see kids
saying bad words and doing bad things. I am thankful that I know to avoid those
things.
I would like to bear my testimony that even when bad things are going on around
you it doesn't mean that you have to do it.
