Several reasons why we should avoid "[insert deity] will never give you more than you can handle"

If you have never been abused, you don't know how the whole world dismisses it or blames you. It's always your fault and even if that's what you believe, you need to keep that to yourself because otherwise you just become one more asshole blaming someone in pain and never to be trusted by that person again. You may say, "oh, your higher self needed to experience it and so chose it," but all someone that has been through will hear is yet one more person telling them it's all their fault. Because you are.

And there are things around to "stop it from going too far"?? Where the hell were they when my cousin killed himself, like I told you in the post?!

You are a horrible, awful person. You have no idea what it is like to go through these things, so you need to stop talking about how "it's what we chose." You're a toxic asshole. You know damn well how upsetting this can be for people and you are pretending to be kind, just to get close enough to twist the knife. Get out of my world!
