For those who trust in the Divine all things are moving towards an everlasting state of happiness, and no matter what happens at any time to them, it contributes to that state.

There is one word to summarise the kind of happiness described here: unconditioned.
This is a key concept to understand the nature of suffering in Buddhism. Suffering is any state of mind that is conditioned, resting upon anything that is transient, subjected to change and death, by either attachment or aversion.
So, if suffering derived from a negative state of mind, such as loss, can be relatively easy to understand, harder it might be to comprehend that also a positive one can generate suffering.
For instance, if one were to be resting his or her joy on, let us say, an achievement, then that joy is suffering, because the causes and conditions that generated that state of mind are destined to fade away; the achievement is subjected to decay and death and when it's gone the mind will be left grasping at it as an attempt to perpetuate that happiness (attachment), that is thus conditioned.
Every spiritual path can be said to be reaching for that unconditioned state of mind, whatever it may be called in every single tradition.
