His Will Be Done預覽

Imagine you’re baking a cake. If you were to consider eating butter, eggs, flour, sugar or any other ingredient in a cake all by itself, you would wind up with a mess that tastes awful. No one puts a tablespoon of flour straight into their mouth. You just don’t do that. What you do, instead, is blend them together in order to create a cake. Something delightful results out of the combination, not out of each thing examined and eaten on its own.

Similarly, your destiny results out of the combination of providential ingredients mixed together and often, like a cake baked in an oven, is sealed through the heat and fire of testing, trials and challenges. When you and I look at our individual situations on their own, it’s often easy to feel overwhelmed or less-than-satisfied. That’s why wrapping your mind around the link between providence and sovereignty is essential in motivating your participation on this path. Otherwise, you may just want to give up instead.
