"The Problem of Pain" by CS Lewis

I’m reading a book by CS Lewis called the Problem of Pain. It’s about how God can be good and loving and there can still be pain and suffering.

A quote from this book-
We are, not metaphorically but in very truth, a Divine work of art, something that God is making, and therefore something which He will not be satisfied with until it has a certain character... In the same way, it is natural for us to wish that God had designed us for a less glorious and less arduous destiny; but then are wishing not for more love but for less.
-CSL
