The more you care about the powerless, the more power you have. The more you serve those with no influence, the more influence God gives you. The more you humble yourself, the more you’re honored by others.
Since God intends to make you like Jesus, he will take you through the same experiences Jesus went through. That includes loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection, and many other problems.
God doesn’t owe us an explanation for everything and actually what I’ve found is that explanations don’t comfort. What comforts is the presence of God, not the explanation of God.
