The simple form of this problem is that the relationship with God, which is above all relations, needs trust, safety, and satisfaction. But the problem is that the people who are suffering are not psychologically able to continue loving and worshiping God. They are not satisfied with God and feel that they are the victims of God's silence and absence.
