.....for you.
That implies that you know it might not be good for other people. Or..you know..just good.
God wouldn't need to curb stomp a child to do anything, let alone give me a lollipop.

Doesn't this contradict your assertions that god has a plan and sometimes that plan involves bad things happening to good people? If something bad happened to you, even if you didn't do anything "bad" to deserve it, would you say that was part of god's plan? Did god decide you don't deserver his goodness even though you didn't do anything bad? Or just a random occurrence?
Why is it so?
