Sometimes it is hard to see that all things work together for good for
those who love God, nevertheless it is a fact. Thank goodness. It
would be pretty bad if it didn't.
Tragedy and suffering is a pain in the gut but within all the dynamics
of life it is there and there is nothing we can do about it. It is
manifoldly wonderful to know that God is good though.
I have often said that Romans 8:28 should say "all the bad things" not
just "all things", because hey, I'll take the good all day!!! :-)

My view is the opposit, to some degree, as I think it should stay with "all
things", BUT should be understood in the context of Jesus parables on the
good trees only producing good fruit,,, IF (and they are) all things are
*producing* good, then, in spite of our present opinions, all things ARE
good !!! (If you love and trust the Lord according to His purpose)
