"We went for milkshakes at a place we heard was good. They ended up being an average milkshake but way overpriced."
I smile when I read the quote from last year. It sounds like a good review of something bad.
Have you ever heard of something that sounded so amazing that you just couldn't wait to get a hold of it but when you finally got it you wished you hadn't wasted your time and money? That was my experience with these milkshakes.
The wonderful thing is that an average milkshake didn't ruin my day. In fact when bad things happen that should ruin my day I still don't let them. God is too good, life is too short and Heaven too real to be crying over temporary situations and circumstances.
God works all things together for our good. The worst of things can even produce good. Need proof of that? Just look at the cross. It was the most terrible thing that could happen. God in the flesh, crucified and dead. But the Spirit raised Jesus and it made the way of our salvation.
If you have been having bad, or even average days, just look to the Father to see how He is going to turn it around. He will make those things work for your good.
Have you ever spent too much on something disappointing like the milkshakes? What bad thing has God worked together for your good?
