Why Did God Let It Happen?

Have you wondered why God allows physical defects or deformities? Why so many children are in families with no fathers? Why God permits accidents with permanent injuries? Why outstanding peple die prematurely? Why God lets so much sexual abuse take place? These and many similar situations sound like "bad things" that happen to good people, but when we see them from God's perspective we understand the promise that all things do "work together for good to them that love God".
