'God causes all things to work together for good'. This slice of Romans 8:28 is a feel-good classic from The Bible. But we like to gloss over the meat of that sandwich; the part that says: "God causes all things to work". It doesn't say God snaps everything together for us. He causes, things to work, for good.
I love a nice walk on the beach too, but God seems to be more interested in taking us hiking up a mountain than walking down a peaceful beach. And sometimes there won't be any footprints in the sand because He asks us to climb a rock wall with Him.
I suppose if you follow Him far enough up the mountain, it seems safer to stick with Him than to try to get back down by yourself. But I'm sticking it out for His company at this point. Plus, He said something about a beach on the other side.
