Sikhism provides a reason for why an all-loving and all-powerful creator allows suffering to continue. Our entire concept of suffering as being a bad thing, is wrong. Suffering is the mechanism that God has put in place to make us remember and love God again:
“Suffering is the medicine, and pleasure the disease, because where there is pleasure, there is no desire for God” (Guru Granth Sahib, p.469).
A loving mother sometimes punishes her child, so that the child may reform their bad ways. Similarly, just as iron is beaten by the blacksmith, even though the iron cries out in pain, in the end what is left is iron without the impurities:
“Putting iron into the furnace the iron is heated. Then it is put on the anvil where it bears the strokes of hammer. Making it clear like glass, its value is set” (Bhai Gurdaas Vaaran, p.14).
Another way to look at good and evil is to consider instead light and darkness. Darkness does not actually exist, it is merely the absence of light, but without darkness, how can we hope to understand light?
Similarly, evil does not exist, it is merely the absence of good, but without the concept of evil, how can we hope to understand good?
Without suffering and pain, we would not be able to understand the value of goodness and pleasure.

When a child is given up for whatever reason by the mother and the child is found or adopted and brought up by someone else.
Love every child as your own.
Nanak Aadh Jugaadh Jiyo
"Nanak Aadh Jugaadh Jiyo" is a Punjabi devotional song that translates to "Nanak, the Primal Beginning of All Ages."
It's a song that honors Guru Nanak Dev, the founder of Sikhism, and his teachings.
The song emphasizes that there's divinity in all of God's creations and encourages helping others.
It also portrays a journey of raising a child, with individuals lending a helping hand, and stresses the importance of ensuring all children are cared for.
