**Mishaps Can Be Blessings**

        We all have mishaps happening to us, causing pain or suffering. Since God loves us, everything he allows to happen to us has to be for our ultimate good. If you don't see that and blame God for it instead, no good will come out of it for you. Now, we are all sinners. Even if God forgives us all our sins, we still need to pay for our offenses, just like a remorseful criminal still having to serve his sentence. If we'd see all our mishaps as payment for our sins, they become blessings, for they will now shorten (or eliminate) our time in purgatory later! Suffering now is always preferable to suffering later after death.
