The Christ speaks: Because of my cross, I am able to protect you; in my cross alone is your salvation. The cross pours out peace, strength, and joy on believing saints. Integrity is in the cross; there I perfect holiness. --The Imitation of Christ: The Beatitudes Edition
The Christ speaks: Love me for who I am--not for my blessings. Love me as much in anguish as when I console you. Pure love is powerful, it's untainted with self-interest, it seeks nothing for itself.
The Christ speaks: I have many friends who love my heavenly Kingdom but few who will carry my cross. I have many who want comfort but few who welcome adversity. I have many who are willing to share my supper, but few who share my fasting.

Remember Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego? God didn't put out the fire. He put Jesus in there with them. They came out unsinged and without smoke.
It's not about God stopping the bad things; it's about Who's in there with you.
