There is no God, Kitty. People suffer sometimes because bad things happen.

God never lets you suffer you suffer by yourself he always right there w/ you, waiting for you to come to him and hand it over in his hands and let god deal, we as humans can only deal w/ a certain amount by ourselves, but when we let god step in we can deal w/ or do any thing! Also I beleive that sometimes he may let people experience things to bring them closer to him. What does we automatically do when we are faced w/ a delima that we think we can not do by our selves we cry out to God for help, and he will always help. If you don't believe just read the book "Gods in the Hard STUFF" it referenceses to the Holy Bible.

If God is love, why does he permit wickedness?
GOD does permit wickedness, and millions on earth willfully make a practice of it. For instance, they declare wars, drop bombs on children, scorch the earth, and cause famines. Millions smoke and get lung cancer, practice adultery and get sexually transmitted diseases, use alcohol to excess and get cirrhosis of the liver, and so on. Such people do not truly want all wickedness stopped. They only want the penalties for it eliminated. When they reap what they have sown, they cry out, "Why me?" And they blame God, as Proverbs 19:3 says: "A man's own folly wrecks his life, and then he bears a grudge against the LORD." (The New English Bible) And if God stopped their evildoing, they would protest their loss of freedom to do it!
Jehovah's main reason for permitting evil is to answer Satan's challenge. Satan the Devil said that God could not put men on earth who would be true to Him under test. (Job 1:6-12; 2:1-10) Jehovah allows Satan to remain to have opportunity to prove his challenge. (Exodus 9:16) Satan continues to bring woes now, to turn men against God, as he tries to prove his challenge. (Revelation 12:12) However, Job kept integrity. So did Jesus. True Christians do now.-Job 27:5; 31:6; Matthew 4:1-11; 1 Peter 1:6, 7

God does not let anyone suffer it is all up to you. God allows you to be born, what you do with your life is your business. He only wants your soul to learn and grow and be more holy. If you are suffering take action right now to improve your life. Only you can do it.
But Prayer does help.

It is the pain God must endure to allow us to be people w/ free will rather than mere toasters w/ automated responses. W/o free will, we would not be in the image of God. This is why Jesus came to free us from the bent free wills which cause us so much sorrow. God loves us to much let our free wills cause so much suffering forever.

You only really suffer if you dont learn something from the bad experience. Life is composed of good and bad, cant be all of either but with every experience comes the opportunity to learn something from it that will make us stronger. If you are handed it, you can handle it. Good luck!

because god is trying to prove that satan's government (this current world) does not work. if god didnt let anyone die or anyone suffer, it would give the impression that satan's system and government is working and that would prove that gods kingdom to come is not better. but god does love us and he can give us the strength to deal with the problems we face.

The remove all that hinders love...to remove all the false props and all the little things in our lives that keep us from Him, allowing things to happen also because people make choices that have consequences. There is always choice and consequences for those choices.
