Our plans are not always God’s plans. … He will bless and use in the advancement of
His cause those who sincerely devote themselves and all they have to His
glory.
If He sees it best not to grant their desires He will counterbalance the refusal by giving them tokens of His love and entrusting to them another service.
.... In the future life [Heaven] the mysteries that here have annoyed and
disappointed us will be made plain. We
shall see that our seemingly unanswered prayers and disappointed hopes have
been among our greatest blessings.
