About This Quote

Perhaps evil is the crucible of goodness... and perhaps even Satan - Satan, in spite of himself - somehow serves to work out the will of God. It is possible that when good people do evil things, it may be that they are trying to do good in spite of themselves.

The answer is only in the Lord.
