All of the things that you are talking about are man made situations. Evil originates with Satan the devil and in the hearts of some imperfect humans. The things that you speak of though are horrible and evil, but not irreversible. Matthew 10:28 tells us not to be in fear of those that can destroy the body. The reason why this is stated is because God has promised that whatever damage that man has done he can undo. At Matthew 6:9 and 10 Jesus taught us to pray for a kingdom that would bring to end the badness on this earth and restore it to the way God originally purposed it to be. Those who perish now have the hope of life in a world where death will be no more. That is bought at Revelation 21:3-5. So, for now, all these beautiful little ones that lose their lives at the hand of satanic people in this sytem, lie in a state of deep sleep. Ecclesiastes 9:5,10 tells us that they do not feel anything including pain, but lie in wait of a resurrection. Jesus will call them out of their memorial tombs, this is bought out at John 5:28 and 29. They will open their eyes again, to life in a world where they will only close them when they want to sleep. They will from then on open their beautiful eyes to a world filled with peace and love. God is the solution not the problem...

O.k let me say this before I get bashed by everyone out there. In some cases I believe, key word here I, (doesnt mean anyone else.)that God see's what kind of life that child will walk and before it gets , so bad that he pulls them out of this world. As far as kidnapping. I believe, again I..that if your house is not right that you bring things upon your home and your family. Not only do you pay fo rwhat you may or may not have done, but your children pay for it as well. I have seen ppl say well if he is an all loving God, he wouldnt let that happen, but yes he does. He giveth and he can taketh away. As far as abortion, I dont feel that God sits there and praises anyone for it, but thats why we have free will. He can only do so much. The children that are aborted, not that I agree with it, but these children have already taken their place in Heaven. So, that is how I see it, doesnt mean you have to agree or dis-agree, Everyone will probably have a different view on this.

We put such an emphasis on this life... and the world. Our physical lives are nothing but a vapor and we should be more focused on what will be after we are dead. If you step out of the physical world and into the spiritual realm... You will realize that alot of stuff happening to us and as well as our kids are a direct result result of things we have done. God gives us free will to sow what ever kind of seeds we want to.... and when its time for harvest we have to reap what was sown. That is his word and it never ever changes. Now, you wont fully understand this if you are on the outside looking in... Because you have taken procession on the holy spirit and therefore you arent in God and he in you and cant fully show you what is going on. Whenever something bad happens, I thank God and I immediately ask for understanding because I know that its either something I missed, something I did or didnt do, or something that has to be manifest for a greater cause. I dont blame God... I get angry sometimes and I mad but I pray that God just tells me whats going on.

I think God set up the world in a way we just can't understand, obviously.
The way He did it was with few interventions in the design.
The pain any of us suffers at death is like the pain a mother has at childbirth. It hurts SOOO bad. But when the baby is here and she is doing the lovely things that mothers and babies do, she forgets the pain. When we enter heaven, our pains of life melt away in vastness and excellent fun of the place! Just imagine stepping into a super cyber world that is real and never ends or gets boring.
All living things go on beacuse no energy is lost. All the children come to Him.
It must hurt to be born the first time, coz a baby cries usually. But he/she doesn't even remember it. When we are born again to the next life, we won't remember any pain for long.

While no one knows the full mind of God. We are all sinners and deserve everything you mentioned and more. It is through God's grace that we have much better lives that that. I can say through my own life as well as others I have seen and read about, God can use those pains and sufferings to His glory if you allow him to work in your life.
For example, a child that is molested, could grow up and work in child counciling and could effectively help hundreds or thousands of others that need compassion.
We are all sinners living in a sinful world. God gave us free will and unfortunately many have chosen to ignore him.
I recommend the following website about suffering. It is the best description of how God allows suffering that I have read.

God Bless.

hi :}
this is the very reason i have a belief in reincarnation.
we as souls with free will often will make a contract before our souls are in the flesh with other souls whom we love or whom we wish to help them evolve ,,,,we will sacrifice our lives in order for them to learn some much needed lessons in love and experiences ..
so this child whom has been murdered or abused etc etc ,this is why ,,,the child sacrifices for the people in his or her soul group way before things were set in motion and so when this horrible experience happens it alters all who were involved in it .
same with abortions i feel that an aborted fetus is more then likely a soul that decided not to come into being .........or again for the reason of touching the lives through this brief experience .
so truly re-incarnation does have some merit when we Begin to consciously study different religions and beliefs there is of course much more to it i am simple trying to give you a different perspective on your question :}
i do believe their is something higher within our universe .

God is not the author of evil..Man is!! God says that he desires that no one perish. Babies and children go right to heaven. We ourselves do not establish the standards of what is right. Only the Creator of all reality can do that. We need to settle it, in our minds and hearts, whether we understand it or not, that whatever God does is, by definition, right.
Having settled this by faith, we are then free to seek for ways in which we can profit spiritually from the sufferings in life as well as the blessings
The sufferings of unsaved men are often used by the Holy Spirit to cause them to realize their needs of salvation and to turn to Christ in repentance and faith. The sufferings of Christians should always be the means of developing a stronger dependence on God and a more Christ-like character, if they are properly "exercised thereby" (Hebrews 12:11).
Thus, God is loving and merciful even when, "for the present," He allows trials and sufferings to come in our lives.
"For we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28).

We all have free will that's why so many children are killed every day through murders abortion etc.. I do however wonder if God doesn't just take their spirits instead of letting them suffer at the end. God doesn't find enjoyment in our suffering especially in children. Maybe they feel nothing at all and go straight to God.
Just an unfounded theory.

same reason why God doesn't ALWAYS step in when a saintly person is about to be killed for his beliefs. He leaves the judgement for later, even the murderer gets chances to change.
He probably takes the child to Him sooner, and only He can see the whole life of the child and how he's going to turn out.
