...things which seem to turn to man's disadvantage...


"The Christian turns again and again from that bewildered contemplation of history in which God is so easily lost, to the prayer of filial trust in which He is always found, knowing here that those very things which seem to turn to man's disadvantage may yet work to the Divine advantage. On the frontier between prayer and history stands the Cross, a perpetual reminder of the price by which the Kingdom is brought in."
Evelyn Underhill, Abba, 1940
 
"And we know in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose."
Romans 8:28
