help us grow
“Every adversity that comes across our path,
whether large or small,
is intended to help us grow in some way.
If it were not beneficial,
God would not allow it or send it,
‘For he does not willingly bring
affliction or grief to the children of men’
(Lamentations 3:33).
God does not delight in our sufferings.
He brings only that which is necessary,
but He does not shrink from
that which will help us grow.”
