God is love. God is also just. And God is merciful. He wants us to love Him freely, without fear or coercion. But that can only happen if we have free will. And with free will comes the potential for hurt and harm, for ourselves and others. God does not desire evil. But He respects our free will and knows that sometimes the only way we can learn and grow is by experiencing the natural consequences of our choices. In His wisdom, God allows evil to happen, knowing that it can ultimately lead to good. He never fails us, even in our darkest hour.
For those who love Him, He will always be there to guide us back to the light.
