Tavia Hunt continued in her article with messages on her Christian faith.

“How do we trust a god who is supposed to be good, all informed and all powerful, but who allows such terrible things to happen – even children?”

“It is a sacred and tender question – and one that the Bible does not fear. The Scriptures are filled with the cries of those whose hearts have been broken, which always fights to trust the same God who, according to them, allowed pain.”
