We have to trust in God. He knows what He's doing, even if His reasons are not immediately obvious to us.
Hopefully, hell exists, and all the evil people will go there after death to pay for all their crimes, while good people will be rewarded in heaven.

It is not always like this. But even if the "good" person lives a life that to a "bad" person would qualify as "miserable", the good person is so busy giving thanks for what s/he has, Who God is and what He has done, that s/he ends up thinking s/he has a good life. S/he considers that life a gift, so when the end comes, s/he is thankful for whatever days s/he was given.
There is at least one example in the Bible where it is said plainly - in advance of the fact, no less - that a certain righteous person (King Josiah) will be taken away at a young age to spare him the evil times that will come after that.(*)
So, yes, there is a God and He does hold our times in His hands. And what we make of our life, our own attitude towards it, will determine whether we feel good about that or not.

It's not a matter of Good dying erlier but it's because time and unforseen ocurrance befall us allAs the Bible says:" For man also does not knowhis time. Just like fishesthat are being taken in an evil net, and like birds that are being taken in a trap, so the sons of men themselves are being ensnared at a calamitous time, when it falls upon them suddenly, Does God Exist?
."—RomansSome Scientists Answer
PHYSICS professor Ulrich J. Becker, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, stated when commenting on the existence of God: "How can I exist without a creator? I am not aware of any compelling answer ever given."
Did this contradict his scientific views? The professor's thought-provoking answer was, "If you discovered how one wheel in the 'clock' turns—you may speculate how the rest move, but you are not entitled to call this scientific and better leave alone the question of who wound up the spring."
Contrary to the opinion of some, many respected men of science do not rule out the idea of there being a God—a Great Mastermind behind the creation of the universe and man.
Consider two more examples on this point. When mathematics professor John E. Fornaess, of Princeton University, was asked for his thoughts on the existence of God, he replied: "I believe that there is a God and that God brings structure to the universe on all levels from elementary particles to living beings to superclusters of galaxies."
Physics professor Henry Margenau, of Yale University, said that he was convinced that the laws of nature were created by God, adding: "God created the universe out of nothing in an act which also brought time into existence." He then noted that in the book The Mystery of Life's Origin, three scientists explain that a Creator is a plausible explanation for life's origin. Supporting this view, astronomer Fred Hoyle has stated that believing the first cell originated by chance is like believing that a tornado ripping through a junkyard full of Boeing 747 airplane parts dismembered and in disarray could produce a 747.
To these answers can be added the words of the Bible writer Paul: "[God's] invisible qualities are clearly seen from the world's creation onward, because they are perceived by the things made, even his eternal power and Godship.Your question is a fair questionand although also theGood die too they have the hope of a resurection to live on paradise earth forever in happiness! even though they may die now that is not the end of it, for not even death can seperate us from God's love!

The good people do not always die earlier than the bad ones. Yes, there is a God.
Bad people do not all live their whole lives happy. Good people do not all live miserable lives.
You are feeling down and so things seem that way now.

What if life is about what I believe? That we choose our own lives before we are "born". We choose the trials and tests we go thru, not God. God does not "make" things happen to us. We decided it, so that we can perfect our souls by learning from every experience.
If you think of life this way, then the people with the hardest lives, are actually the most admirable people because they were so strong to decide to endure these problems in life because they are a soul that could get thru these things.
If you are interested in these ideas, I recommend the book that changed my life "God, Creation, and Tools For Life". It is the most incredibly eye-opening book Ive ever read...

You are equating a long life with a good life. This is not always true. As you get old all the abuse you gave your body over the years comes back to haunt you physically. A long life can be a trying, torturing, difficult thing for some people. Your assumptions that a long life is a good life and that God is here to make people happy are both incorrect.

Maybe it has something to do with the good people being the ones to shoulder all of the pain. While good people spend so much time and consideration for others, they are also accepting a big stressload. That load even coming from many bad people who take advantage. A leading factor to illnesses is stress. As for "Is there a god?" ...Isn't GOODNESS closest to Godliness

In your sign the good ones are the persons who you like and bad ones the persons you hate. But God has a wider look and sees us from all angles. Giving life and taking life is His right and He is doing it at His time. This answer is if you are confident about the existence of God. Otherwise your question is invalid.

Answering from religous piont of view. The Bible says that the good ones are taking before the days of evil. And so good ones are taking away before they are corrupted and get derayed. The fact that we lived and at a time, dies is a prove that God exit. This God is all aware of the fact that the world is corrupted and so He send His only begotten son Jesus Christ to redeem those that will belive Him. And so John 1; 12 'as many that belive Him, He gave power to become children of God'. These children of God will soon be gardered at rapture and be taking to be with the Lord in heaven . At this place there will not be sorrow or chance for the bad people becuase everyone there shall be good. Jesus said that He is going to heaven to prepare a place for those of us who believe in Him. When He finish these, He will come back at rapture. Then, we will be with the Lord forever and ever.This invarably says that this world is not pamanet . And so we must strive to live to please Him Who owns the world and will come back to redeem it.
Thanks and God bless

GOD gives more responsibility to good people. They are powerful and infulence other easily in a positive way. After certain years, the positive deeds of the good people gets saturated among his friends, realtives, altogether the environment. When the saturation occurs in the environment, then the good people's power is being wasted. So God decides to use their power in some other place and spread the positive power. The good people are dead for physical eyes...but they are actually transfered to some other place to serve and influence some other people....Their journey is ever lasting....
