He was getting tutored by the best defensive players, best defensive minds, and best defensive schemes. As a result he soon became defensive player of the year and was named to the all defensive team seven times.
Did it ever occur to those who are so upset that "all things work together for good, even to them that are called according to his purpose."?
Perhaps this experience we had in the LRC which WL called "Training" was exactly the training that the Lord wanted for us?

Well, yes and no. Yes, God can cause all things to work for good. But God doesn't send the evil. He places us in a world where we are challenged by negative things, but he doesn't create the negative.
If your point is that how we bounce back is all-important, I agree. And it's a good point. If your point is "it's all good," I disagree.
But let's not rehash "the problem of evil" again, please!
