Take a look at all English versions of the verse, Romans 8:28:

Often, we quote it wrong and understand it improperly.
God uses everything in our lives to bring forth His purpose and His glory.
He'll take the stuff that was meant to be bad, and surely was, but He will bring His purpose out of the yuck. And, God working and doing this is good. What happened was not. But, what happens because of it is.
Remember it's His purpose, not ours. His purpose is the same for all of us: To bring Him glory. How we bring Him glory differs between each of us.
