God is perfect. There is nothing that He cannot do. There are, however, things that He CHOOSES to do. He chooses to allow humankind to make their own choices. Those choices have consequences: some great; some total disasters.

The parent can choose to stop the drowning, or pull the child out of the pool in order to save the lives.....a situation the parent controls. If the parent decides to not intervene and the child dies, it is not God's fault: God put the parent there as the means to save the lives of the children.

I prefer to follow the statement made by St. Augustine:

"God created us without us, but He will not save us without us".

Evil in this world is our choice. Until we realize that our choices should be to trust in Him and His Providence in situations we can't control, this sorry world will continue to spin in chaos.

Thanks for the read.
