Do you believe that everything happens for a reason?

I do believe everything happens for a reason but it is often hard to see this when things are going not so well in your life . When you see a loved one pass away or a friend ends up sick when they were told they had a clean bill of health , when you miscarry a child or any bad news that you would get in life . Someday we will know the reason for all of this but it doens't make it any easier to handle now when we have bad news or are hurting from pain .
