We're taught that God's ways are not our ways, that they're higher than our ways. In the parable of the sower we learn that God is generous, giving to all, no matter what the soil is. He doesn't force the soil to be fertile, but offers His seed to it anyway. But it goes beyond just generosity. God actually shows that part of what He does is protect the evil from themselves. He blesses them, and helps them be as happy as they will allow themselves to be. It's hard for us to understand, but God loves all of His children, and blesses them all even if we wouldn't.
