1 Peter 4:19

Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God In the acceptance of sufferings as being according to the will of God, much more is meant than the mere submission to an inevitable destiny. If we really think of pain and persecution as working out God's will, permitted and controlled by Him, we know that that Will is righteous and loving; planning nothing less than our completeness in holiness (1 Thessalonians 4:3), the Will of which we daily pray that it may be done on earth as it is in heaven. The Greek word for "Creator" is not found elsewhere in the New Testament, but is found in the LXX. of Jdt 9:12, 2Ma 1:24. Stress is laid on the attribute, or act, of creation as the ground of confidence. He who made the soul is also He who hateth nothing that He hath made. Here, also, we can scarcely doubt the example of the Great Sufferer was present to the Apostle's mind, and his words were therefore echoes of those spoken on the Cross, "Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit" (Luke 23:46).
