The answer to the question - why does God allow suffering? - is that there is no suffering in God. To be more precise. We perceive suffering when we see ourselves as separate from God which is erroneous for there is only God (perceiving itself as separate for Companionship, for Friendship, for Love; hence the meaning of Life). So please find comfort in the realization that there is no separation in God and that, as such, everyhing and all is always Good as in God when seen from the greater perspective which is the truth. Know thus that there is ultimately nothing to worry about or to be anxious about. Truth is simple. Purpose is Love. And all is always G-d.
