Pffft. Suffering isn’t God’s plan. It’s just the human condition.

Romans 5
3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

“Pffft. Suffering isn’t God’s plan. It’s just the human condition.”
I don't know if it's God's ‘plan’ per se, but Scripture does state that one of the fruits of the Spirit is longsuffering (Galatians 5:22-23).
For those who refuse to place their trust in the finished work of Christ, I would say suffering is merely the human condition (just my own opinion).
