read the Book of Job, its' message is God doesn't owe you an explanation, you're a peon and can't possibly understand God's ways. You have one job, to worship God and obey the laws he gave to Moses. So when tragedy strikes don't go begging for God's help, if he intercedes great, if he doesn't, there's a reason but it's not for you to know.
The Old Testament is a very depressing book. It's no wonder the ancient Jews kept writing more books that were more hopeful and then finally latched onto Jesus Christ as the Messiah, a version of God who is much more loving and understanding than the God of the OT.
