“When my wife cooks a meal, she uses a recipe - a little of this, a little of that, not too much or too little. And it invariably comes out a masterpiece. It's the same with the Holy Spirit sanctifying us, shaping us. The Spirit knows exactly the ingredients necessary to make us into the masterpieces God intended - how much testing, how much joy, sorrow, loss, success, failure, and although we might at times say, “Lord, it is too much; I cannot take this,” yet, the Spirit makes no mistakes and God's grace is all sufficient for all things and in all circumstances for us just as it was for Peter and the others.”
