Jesus has said "Come, blessed of my Father, take the seat in the kingdom prepared for you, because I was hungry you gave me food, I was thirsty you have me drink, I was naked you clothed me, I was homeless you took me home and I was sick you visited me." And we are just doing that.

So it is, brethren, since Man is not accustomed to blame himself. He does not hesitate to consider even God as the cause of evil.
