God and evil

I think of God’s complete sovereignty over human and natural evil in this way:

God is weaving a tapestry of events. This tapestry is complex, with light and dark threads. The dark threads (evil) are the absence of the light (good) of God, but still essential to the overarching goal/theme, which is to maximize the glory of the Son as Judge and Savior-Redeemer of Man. 

Gen 50:20, Isaiah 45:7, 2 Tim 4:1, Rom 8:28, Rom 9:22-23, Heb 1:3 (to name but a few)
