" Paul put the dynamic this way: God “comforts us in all our afflictions, so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God” (2 Corinthians 1: 4). You can give away what you have received. And that is one of the ways that good comes out of evil, without ever insinuating that evil is anything but evil. "
