Text of excerpt, if available
Perhaps a better question than how a good God can allow suffering might be, “How can it be that a good God also can suffer?” The word “compassion” comes from words that mean “to enter the pain.” For many Christians, feeling sorry for someone who is struggling is enough. Yet, the very essence of historical Christianity is God through Christ is a compassionate God and “became flesh” and took on our pain and suffering by his sacrifice and suffering. He enters our pain.
