I think some things can only be created by process, for example the complex world we live in was created by stars colliding to produce certain elements that had to converge on our planet in just the right amounts and at the right times etc. etc.… A miracle. I've heard the same about creating holy yet completely free beings; it's a process, but I am completely sure God is good, he is also way tougher than we are and willing to put up with a lot apparently until things are made right. There are great thinkers who have written about these things. No easy answers but just like the Great Awakening, lots of room for better understanding. Blessings
