"God works in mysterious ways" basically means "this doesn't make any sense to me, but I'm gonna ignore it" (lemmings.world)

Side note, does it count as a shower thought when it was conceived while sitting on the toilet? Do we have toilet-sitting-thoughts communities?

Meh. I think of this (and similar sentiments in other religions) as the equivalent of an aknowledgement of the butterfly effect, unforseen circumstances and the reality that we as humans have little control over the world and can't see into the future.

TLDR: maybe the baby needed to die.
