How do you answer non-believers who ask how could God let such bad things ( flooding, forest fires, hurricanes, etc), happen?

Are women allowed to participate in church? I am referring to 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and 1 Timothy 2:11-12.

What are some verses that a person in physical pain can use to help?
Physical pain consumes our thoughts and body. It demands our attention to fix whatever is wrong. Sadly, not all things can be fixed; some pain needs to be endured.
