“[F]riends are fallible. The wisest among them is still prone to misjudgment, and the most knowledgeable among them is still prone to ignorance…. Even the best-intentioned friend can provide counsel that hurts, harms, or leads astray…. It is a tremendous comfort, then, that when we pray, we are not praying to someone else who is just trying to figure it all out, as we are.” - Challies
“4. It does not mean that only some things work for our good…5. It does not mean we will understand how things were for our good…6. It is not a promise that is given to everyone” - Word by Word
“Sometimes we need the reminder that God can do what is humanly impossible, and that He knows what is eternally best in ways we cannot.” - Randy Alcorn
“We cannot tell whether God means to bless America and the world by preserving Donald Trump, or to judge it. Time will tell. The same is true (although most likely on a smaller scale) for the Comperatore family. Surely, God’s providence allowed their loss.” - Don Johnson
“There is so much that we don’t understand. There is so much that we are incapable of understanding. So rest is found in trusting the Father. He is not confused, and he surely does have your best interest in mind. Yes, he will ask you to do hard things and he will bring difficult things your way, but he is worthy of your trust and he loves you dearly.” - Paul David Tripp
