“God is not concerned about our plans; He doesn’t ask, “Do you want to go through this loss of a loved one, this difficulty, or this defeat?” No, He allows these things for His own purpose.

The things that happen either make us evil, or they make us more saintly, depending entirely on our relationship with God and its level of intimacy.”
