 It's a reproof. It's a help us to see a way that God wants us to draw closer to him. And I've said this many times and I'll say it again and again. Everything that comes into our life, whether good or bad, is intended to draw us closer to God. That can be true of unbelievers. That can be true of believers. Everything that comes into our life, whether good or bad, is intended to draw us closer to him.
