[QUOTE="Beta, post: 744331, member: 22597"] RN0441, I believe this to be true. I can't think of the passage right now, but I'm sure you are familiar with the passage that talks about how trials bring about perseverance, proven character, and hope, and hope does not disappoint because the love of God is poured out in our hearts. Then of course there's Romans 8:28. There's a passage in James about trials too, and many more I'm not able to bring up in my midlife brain at the moment without a Bible in front of me, but yes, I believe God allows circumstances for our good and for His glory as well as the good of others, which means our suffering is not meaningless and random but serves a greater good.
