After all the questions in life, God's Loving Character will always Shine through! At the moment, our limited understanding may be blind to His presence--Jesus, when He cried on the cross,"My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me" Did not accuse the Father of "behaving badly." Questions will be there to ponder, only for us to patiently wait for God's answer; in the end, God's loving Character will always shines through in our lives as we trust in Him!
But I see the premise where people are full of questions, even myself ...at times, as to How God intervenes, leads and direct his people according to His will. And Jesus on the cross, indeed, asked that question as He was enduring the pain and suffering for the penalty of my sin; Yet in the end, we can rejoice in His perfect and Holy will to the outcome and unfolding of His will revealed in History, even as Job did! We can have a questioning heart if our understanding is limited to the actions and providence of God in our life, and in the lives of the OT people; and some people may believe God to be arbitrary, capricious,ruthless, unfair in their eyes; but to say, Hence, "bad Behavior" is wrongly applied and concluded--if we have a limited knowledge and understanding to how God is moving in our lives, because it may go against our concept of fairness, it is not in our place to dishonor God with that label--Look at Job, through all his sufferings He never cursed God as Evil, behaving badly--he did not listen to his wife. In the end, God's Loving Character Shines!Our Blessed Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, He saw the outcome and travail of His sufferings and Has great joy in bringing many sons and daughters to glory
