Serious question for theists: [Spirituality & Religion]

I know on this site I'm mostly known as one of those edgy atheists who make fun of religion and its followers all the time, but I do have a genuine question for the theists on this site:

How can you still believe there is an all-powerful, all-good god while looking at the world as it is?
Whenever I think about all the crazy and horrible stuff that happened and is going on the world rn I just [i]know[/i] that there cannot be a god who is omnipotent as well as omnibenevolent. It just doesn't add up.
Please don't be offended, I'm just genuinely curious.

There is a battle between good and evil that started a long time ago. It's accelerating now and may what's good in the universe [i][b]win!

@Emosaur It's a choice we were given, Satan was once an angel too. I don't think we're meant to understand everything here and now, but I have the faith that we will somewhere. ⭐️Blessed are those that can believe without seeing. Think of it as a type of metamorphosis, like a caterpillar turning in to a butterfly. 🐛🦋 😏

@Emosaur I'm a spiritual person who questions the bible. I'm not sure WHO God really is, but I know there is something in the universe that cares what happens to us.⭐️

@Emosaur I grew up Christian and that's okay with me. I just question a lot of the bible but still believe something is there for us...
