God realized that he couldn't control every aspect of our lives, that he had to let us live, like when your children grow up, you have to let them move out and live on their own. You know that life's not going to be perfect for them, but you also know that the best thing for them is just to let them live it the way they see fit. Hopefully they live their lives the way you taught them to, but in the end it's their choice. God never promised that life is going to be fair; he only promises that he will judge you fairly when your time on Earth is up.

no, it has nothing to do with that- things happen you can't get mad at God for it- God is not going to make everthing peachy for anybody- just because you see people with big houses making lots of money doesn't mean it came from God, the devil can give his people those thing- the devil has a little power too- he's the prince of the air meaning he's lurking to and fro and the same way you can say something, and not mean any harm about it, the other person will receive it wrong because the devil has a way of changing your words before it even gets to the other person ears- he's th eprince of the air- so don't get discouraged if you dont have what another have- materialistic wise, get into the spiritual things and you will be richer than you ever thought- richer in knowledge richer in wisdom and understanding, that matters more than riches and fame. and one more thing if you read his word, it says that he a Great and Terrible God

One common misconception about life is that the purpose of life is for me to be happy. That's not true. The purpose of life is to glorify God. So when we go through bad things this strengthens our faith in Him and others can see how we deal with bad situations. This could lead them to wonder how we can have hope which ultimately leads back to God's glory.
James 1:3-4 The testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
Romans 5:4-5 We also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

Its the game of life. People think that bad things are for the worse but its really a lesson for you to learn.It is also a blessing cause once you learn you can better your life or yourself. If your truly a good person God is showing you a sign.It isnt nessisarly bad , believe it or not.

Bad things happen to everyone. Badness is not racist, classicist, prejudiced or otherwise discriminatory.
There is no religious explanation for indiscriminate misfortune, because it's not wrong. It doesn't need justification.
All of us are equally divine and equally correct. Acting like a "good guy" does not entitle you to more of God's graces.

When the painter is painting a picture he imagines a scene and starts throwing colour on the canvass. Some places receive red colour some blue and some black.when the work is finished a beautiful painting is made.you remove a colour from its place the painting looses its meaning.each colour individually has no relevance.If you use only golden colours no painting will be made . you use only black colour no painting will be made. It is immaterial which spot gets which colour it is the overall picture which is relevant I think you get the point

The answer isn't spiritual is's logical. Your'e so busy worrying about a fairytale gone bad (the bible) and religion you don't realize that good things happen to those who either work for it,or not at all, whether they be murderers or priests.

Bad things happen to everybody, people just notice it more when it happens to good people because they feel they didn't deserve it. And it doesn't bother you as much if it happens to a bad person because you feel they deserved it anyway, so it doesn't make as big a mark on your memory later. Bad things (and good things) happening is just part of life in a less-than-perfect world.

1-st of all there are NO good people. None. 2-nd we are told that the trial of our faith (which is NOT pleasant, i.e. bad thing) is more precious for us than FINE GOLD ! So one, if in trouble, should not despise the Lord and remove Him from our heart.
Remember (!) that we, as christians, are NOT of THIS world, this world is satan's, we are to inherit God's world, which is paradise itself. Jesus said that we will be hated by everone if we do what He asked us to do (i.e. bad things will happen to us).
