God will never disappoint us… If deep in our hearts we suspect that God does not love us and cannot manage our affairs as well as we can, we certainly will not submit to His discipline. …To the unbeliever the fact of suffering only convinces him that God is not to be trusted, does not love us. To the believer, the opposite is true.

Love is such a priceless treasure that you can redeem the whole world by it, and cleanse not only your own sins but the sins of others.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
