But in the larger scheme of things, it doesn’t matter. I think the main thing is to trust in God. He is very aware of us, his children. He hasn’t promised us a life free from pain and problems, but he has promised great blessings if we endure them righteously and with faith.

We may not escape peril individually, but he will protect his people as a whole. And, as Gramps says, Christ is returning and it will all turn out OK in the long run.

There is a great, classic talk about trusting in God, even when things don’t go how we would like them to:
