If we believe that God is good, that he loves us; then how can he not give us good things?
Yet, sometimes what he gives is not like what we ask for, what then?
My heart ached for a mother who asked for a child, specifically many qualities that her heart desired. Yet the miracle child turned out to be late in development. It is very hard for a not very young mum who knows nothing very much about special children to handle a seemingly difficult child.
It is very easy to say, have faith. Especially for women who have perfectly delightful children with fairly normal childhoods. When things go wrong, too many people seemed to turn experts over night. It could be a very lonely place for the parents involved. How to seek a quiet place to hide in to withstand the storms raging outside? For that matter, it may not be possible to find a quiet physical place at all. One may need to create a quiet corner inside. Yes, finding the eye of the hurricane within one's soul.
