I saw this video on you tube the other day and it struck me while I was watching it, that we are so much like that little boy.
We love God when He is blessing us, when things are going according to our plan. When He withholds our "cookies" we sometimes get a little frustrated with Him. We think maybe life isn't fair, because someone else seems to have all the "cookies" they want. However - all cookies, all the time isn't good for little boys, and it's not good for us either! Isn't it wonderful that our God wants the best for us, even when we don't know what it is?

That's a very good observation and analogy. I see how we act like that sometimes. Cute little boy.
adorable video!! so true of us! ouch! I want to be a a mightly woman of God who loves Him and trusts Him period...cookie or no cookie! (you are so right, too...all cookie and no veggie is not good...it makes a weak child!!)
AMEN....too often we don't like it when he with holds from us..THANK GOD, HE always does what is best!
Blessings, andrea
My dad used to tell us kids, when life gives us crumbs from the cookie...live with it and enjoy the taste nonetheless.
Wow -- that's too true. He's adorable, but I hope I don't truly think like him.
Love the video Mari, as well as your analogy.
Very cute. Kids DO say the darnest things. I like how you've used this to remind us of how blessed we are...even when we're waiting for our "cookies".
Hugs!

I love how that little sweetie said, "I love you to, but I don't like you all the time"...who hasn't felt that emotion!
And a little child shall lead them...
Cute video and so true to real life. In everyones life some rain must fall. Makes us appreciate the good time even more.

Awwww! He is so cute! I love how he expresses himself. He still does it in a nice way. So cute!
So cute. At least he loves her even when he doesn't like her. Whew. :-)
very good post to go along with that video.
Great video, great message. It's easy to forget sometimes that the hard times make us who we are.
I like your blog.
