Emotionally Drained, you ask some very deep questions. The bottom line is why does God allow suffering, especially of innocent children? My mind is too little to understand all the complexities of that answer, but I can tell you, God is good. He does not cause suffering, punish sweet innocent children, and He loves you more than you could ever imagine. His love has no beginnning and no end; I know that for a fact. I know without a doubt that He knows the number of hairs on your head, has
heard your every prayer, and when you cry, he cries with you. Some things I just know, and this is one of them.
