For the ones who follow, it's crazy how we work our God out of the situations we want to put ourselves in because we aren't strong enough to deal with real life.
Nobody ever puts it all in Your hands. And maybe we shouldn't. But why do we fall into things that help us for only a few hours, or weeks? Why are we not truly trying for who we want to be?
It's crazy how you see the different sides of people when important things happen. So maybe we're supposed to act like idiots and do things we know aren't right so that we can look back and see that we've grown up? Hmm. Maybe.
Sometimes I'll hear things and those things make me sad, but then second they make me want to work on the way I react to times I have trouble dealing with things.
I usually apologize to the Infinite one for myself and all the stories I hear that hurt. If they hurt me... I can't imagine the way God feels.

This post seems a bit abstract to me, and it's probably supposed to be. So, I don't know specifically what you're speaking about.
But, I will say that God seems to always take the form of whatever people want God to take when it is convenient for them. Which is a problem. But let's remember that if we have faith that we were made in God's image (which sometimes I do believe that) then God is probably a lot like us.
Meaning, God is fickle. God gets too emotional and too cranial. God wants to be loved like we do.
I think about that every time I do something stupid, which is very frequent nowadays.
I like to follow that idea around too. Although I can only speak from my experience. I know what you mean though. Maybe I meant God's plan more than how He is. It's tough to think of God as weak. But..
I don't know if weak is what I'd say, although I'm tempted to when I'm angry. It might be good for me to conclude that God can empathize with us, howe'er.
