It also addresses the issue that has bugged me since February 25, 1976. Why do bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad?
My take is that since God can see infinitely into the past and future as well as across the universe who are we to try to understand God's plans? We just try to do the best with what God hands us.

Because we live in an imperfect world and God allows us to make our own choices. These choices affect us and others. If What happens to us depends on if we’re good or bad then we’d just be puppets on a string with God as our puppet master. We’re called to continually grow in faith and it’s the hard times that help us to do that the most if we allow them to. If everything that happened to us was good we’d become stagnant and spoiled. And keep in mind, no one is all good or all bad.
