First: You are not a good person. Get over it. You have made mistakes and hurt people, even when you didn't mean to. If you were smart you learned from those mistakes and became a better person. Not a good person.
Second: No one deserves the rotten things that other people do to them. None of us, from the worst criminal to the grandest saint. No one deserves the natural disasters that occur around us. Not one of us.
Third: It is not what happens to you that defines your life, it is the choices you make.
If you make mistakes, realize you made mistakes, learn from your mistakes, consistently become a better person and consistently make better choices I can guarantee you a better life in this world.
If you want a better life in the next world quit blaming God for the bad things that happen and start thanking him for the good things. Read your Bible for ten minutes. Pray for five minutes and then empty your mind for five minutes so God can talk to you.
Right this minute you need to start focusing on learning and becoming a better person so your choices will be better and your life will be better. God can help you do that.

I remember years ago I was so miserable I wanted to die.
My daughter was just diagnoses with Autism. Every time I took her to special school she cried her eyes out. My dad had just suddenly died. I was sick, Dr's couldn't figure out why. I had NO energy. My mother was a mess and looked to ME because I'm so strong. Every day sucked and the next day was going to be worse.
I was in my car crying. Why God? Why is my life so bad? Then I prayed for death. That was the only thing I thought that could stop my pain. Then I heard a voice, in my head, say, "But I have great plans for you!" I almost wrecked the car.
Things got better.
God bless you dear,

Those Godless people who seem to have everything in this life and nothing bad ever happens to them have approx. 60-70 years of "peacfull" living. Cling to God and you will have an etternaty of peace and those others will end up in hell. Trade with them??? not for a minute. see link below

My son was killed right before Christmas, burned alive from a defective ford car part that would have cost $20 to fix , if they had placed it on the recall list. Fair? It seems not. But God puts us thru hardships in life so that we will turn to him and stop trying to do , and decide everything on our on. Since Payton's death many of his friends have open their hearts to what is really important in in this world, and that is doing God's will with our mind set beingf on eternity. This life is just a blink of an eye to our eternal lives. Heaven is our true home.

When I have hard times I ask God, "What is the lesson I need to learn in this?" I do not believe in an angry punishing God. To me God is a loving disciplining father who knows what we need to grow, mature and gives it to us. Like, "No you cannot have ice cream. Now eat your spinach and grow strong."

"so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous."
Bad things happen to everyone it doesn't matter If you are a good person or not that's just the way it is. Life isn't always fair.

You're in control of your on destiny, GOD gives you the tools, he’s not the labourer. If things are not going as you desired, then change the plan. You have all you need to be great; GOD did not produce any JUNK!

God loves you. He hasn't abandoned you. It's in the valleys we grow closer to Him. We can't be on the mountaintop all of the time. It's through trials and tribulations that we need to draw closer to Him, not pull away. Hang in there. The storm will be over soon.
