Bill Johnson, pastor of Bethel Church in Redding California, spoke 4 or 5 days after the death of his wife in July 2022.
"Why did this happen? I don't know. He (God)* doesn't work for me I work for Him. He never owes me an explanation." Never! He often gives them, but He does not owe them, I owe Him."
* parentheses are mine.
Here is a link to the sermon he preached. I found it very helpful and insightful.
