Guest guest Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Om Shri Sai Raam everyone, I remembered this little story and wanted to share this with each one of you all, I do hope it will bring some bliss to you all... Sometimes we wonder,"What did I do to deserve this",or "Why did Swami have to do this to me".Here 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! Swami works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But Swami knows that when He puts these things (or as he fondly says, the grinding mill)all in His order, they always work for good - to refine us! We just have to trust Him implicitly and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful! Swami 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...doesn't that tell us how much love there is?? Om Shri Sai Raam. Love and blessings..
