The Explanation for Our Difficulties

My Utmost for His Highest, Oswald Chambers: May 22nd
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 we are going through are either making us sweeter, better, and nobler men and women, or they are making us more critical and fault-finding, and more insistent on our own way.

True that! I have that same daily devotional and it seems that everything he says the Holy Spirit uses to convict me.
