The theodicy problem

The theodicy problem asks why suffering exists if a good and omnipotent divine reality governs all things—a question that cannot be answered satisfactorily in the mind but only lived through faith, lament, and patience. Wrestling with this question is not a failure of belief but often its deepening.
