Anyone who knows who God is knows that He is in control. He doesn’t set fires but He does allow things like this for His purposes. Do I know WHAT His purpose is? No. I don’t need to. God is in control. Always.

Very, very nicely stated. If I were writing a treatise rather than merely commenting on FR, I guess I might just take the trouble to add, "for His very good purposes," and "I don't need to [know WHAT His purpose is] because I know and can rely on Him and His holy nature."

A+
