Why God sends us trials and afflictions

God sends us trials and afflictions
to exercise us in patience and
teach us sympathy with the sorrows of others.

St. Vincent de Paul

  1. Doesn't make much sense exercise us in patience teach us sympathy sorrows of others? What about a women and or man who's entire family is lost. How does it pertain to that poor soul. I believe it's because Our Father wants us to focus only Him. Which is a most desirable thing..
