No problem came upon us sooner, pressed on us more heavily, or continued longer than our situation required. God, in divine grace and wisdom, used our many afflictions, each as needed, that we might ultimately possess an exceeding and eternal weight of glory, prepared by the Lord for His people.

God will not turn away from doing you good. He will keep on doing good. He doesn't do good to His children sometimes and bad to them other times.

It means He is shifting things around to get them in place for more good, if you will go on loving Him.
— John Piper
