God reveals in John 17 that His purpose is not just to answer our prayers, but that through prayer we might come to discern His mind.
The things we are going through are either making us sweeter, better, and nobler men and women, or they are making us more critical and fault-finding, and more insistent on our own way.
The things that happen either make us evil, or they make us more saintly, depending entirely on our relationship with God and its level of intimacy.
Oswald Chambers
