13 God's Will and My Life

If the nature of the universe is such that God governs all things by the counsel of his own will, how can I be happy?

If God's will is over all things, then all things includes the bad things like evil and suffering and catastrophes. Events in my life are beyond my control and I experience life in ways I would not choose if I were given the choice. So, how can I be happy with that, or have joy in the midst of sorrow?
