God gives and takes away, and He always knows what lies ahead for you and makes it great.
Bad things happen to test your faith in God.

Two things. Endurance and the reason why God has allowed wickedness until our day. The challenge Satan issued to God and the accusation he made that Job (and thus all mankind) only served him because of selfishness was one that needed to be answered. Job was faithful despite believing God was the cause of his woes and set a fine example for the rest of imperfect humans to follows.

God is capricious and will let you suffer because he thinks it's funny.
I couldn't possibly worship such a hateful being as the god of the old testament.

Sometimes faith will get you by - but is it really worth all the bullshit in the end? God helps those who help themselves.
Peace!
