“Everything happens for a reason” - it’s something we say when a season of life feels hard, or when something happens in our lives and world that we didn’t ask for or plan. Just like a kid who wants a Band-Aid for every hurt, we have a Band-Aid phrase that we apply to feel better when things are rough. God speaks to us through Romans 8 with a different take on where we see God when tough things happen, and what we can hope for amid tough times.
