Question for the Christians posting.

I mean no disrespect as I was raised Catholic myself but I've started questioning a lot. I have a question that no one's ever been able to answer. If everything that happens is God's will, then why do innocent children die of cancer every day, why are they born with horrific birth defects, why would God want a child to suffer in this way? From a mom who's lived it first hand.

That's an difficult one. I asked myself similar questions when I lost an loved one.

The best explanation I can give is only through suffering can you join in his compassion and love.
Only through struggle do we truly appreciate the positive aspects of life.
