One the the hats I wore years ago, was at a 5 star hotel, in food and beverage. It would amaze me how the master pastry chef knew exactly how much of each ingredient went into making each masterpiece.
"God causes all things to work together for good to those who are in Christ." Romans 8:28. One of my all time favorite verses. How much is "all?" That's right; all mean all. What does together mean? Don't be afraid, just shout it out when you have the answer.
Ever tasted raw egg whites? Bitter vanilla extract? Bland flour. Cocoa powder? Not pleasant, each of these ingredients by themselves aren't very tasty. Once mixed together with some sugar, fire and water, and out comes an extremely good cake. God- the Master Chef of our lives know how much heat we need, what ingredients at what ratio, how much sugar has to be added to all the bad tasting stuff in our lives. Yet if we had our way, we most likely would ask for more sugar, less egg whites etc, and low heat. Right?
What happens if a cake comes out of the fire too soon, or too late? It's a mess. Or, if you didn't have the egg whites to add some volume and cement the cake together? It would fall apart in pieces the moment you set it down. Thing is, we don't know how much or how long since we mostly understand our life under the emotion of feeling or taste.
Each of us go through things that we tend to separate out from the recipe of life. We wonder why this or that is happening... God knows! And we shouldn't stress and try to squirm out of whatever it is, added together, with just the right amount of sugar, will eventually produce a masterpiece.
Now, let's break down Nachos- Hot peppers...
