1. As we know-knowledge of His grand plan
2. All things-afflictions and trials [misfortune], victory
3. Work together for good-cooperation, mutually contributes to our good
– teach us the truth, frail and lying condition
– lead us to look to God for support
– produce subdued spirit, humble temper, patient, tender and kind disposition
4. For good-our real welfare, for the promotion of true piety, peace and happiness in our hearts
2119, “A Sad Day” My prayer goes out to a brother and a sister who is experiencing a very difficult event today. It is my hope and my longings that today both of you will find peace in the midst of all your tears and heartaches. God works in a very mysterious ways. I don’t have an answer to your question as to why your life is filled with misfortune. Many times you asked me the question “What did you do wrong to deserve all these tears?” Sometimes, bad things happen to us for a specific purpose – to teach us and to mold us to become a better person and to be closer to God.
