Hi,

So observing reality of christian lifes, it seems God sometimes allows one to suffer more than the other.
Example:
-some are born handicap, some are born healthy,
-some go through life reasonable healthy, some got through life with some annoying diseases like for example cancer,
-some get healed by God, there are many testimonies on youtube, some dont get healed and just die of the disease
-some get born in a first world country, some get born in a poor third world country
-some are born physically attractive, some are born not so attractive, lets face it, being attractive is better than being not attractive, the joke is, why do the rich and beautifull say, that money doesn;t matter and looks doesn't matter while they themselves are rich and beautifull ? if they really meant what they say why dont they sell everything and live a normal life without their wealth ?
-some children get born in a satanist family, some get born in a reasonably good family. Heard testimony on an youtube, whether true or not idk, of a woman born in a satanist family, her father abused her and used her as a baby breeding machine with incest, to sacrifice the babies to Satan

How does God decide before the person is born on earth which person will get to suffer more than others ?
Some say God put some people on the list of stronger warrior that why some suffer more than others, the joke is, some pray to God :"God, Please don't put me on the list of stronger warrior"
Some say because of the sin of Eden, suffering enter the world, so it is like russian roulete, some get place in the position to suffer more than others.

The standard answer that most give is, God thoughts are not our thoughts, his ways are not our ways. Our knowing is partial now, we have to wait till heaven for more answers.
Some say we shouldnt focus on life on earth but on heaven, there will be no suffering more in heaven.
But thing is these standard answers is not really satisfying for all, doesn't ease the suffering for some, for some it does ease the pain of suffering.
That's why some abandon God and become atheist, some don't abandon God and stick it through untill they die without really receiving any solution from God for example some people just die of cancer.

Basically we don't know, all we can do is help and encourage those who do suffer and listen to what they can teach us about life and faith.

Br,
Consider thinking a little more outside the box. True healing from God doesn't come in this life. It comes later in heaven for eternity.
 
-some are born handicap, some are born healthy,
"Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him." (John 9:3) This verse highlights that the man's blindness was an opportunity for God’s power to be revealed. Jesus then healed the man, demonstrating God’s mercy and authority.
some go through life reasonable healthy, some got through life with some annoying diseases like for example cancer,
Cancer is the body attacking itself. It is not a foreign invasion. It is one of the easier healings because God restores the body to His plan and purpose.

some get born in a first world country, some get born in a poor third world country
I am from a "first-world country," my wife is from a "third-world country." The poor are rich in love. There are problems, but I would much rather have a poor wife than a rich one. Although she does work and makes pretty good money, she sends it back to her family because of her love for them.

-some are born physically attractive, some are born not so attractive
The rich and beautiful are often the most miserable. No one has any sympathy for people that have rich people problems because they can always invest their money and live like a poor person.

I personally believe everyone is designed by God to be attractive. But the problem is the way the genes express themselves. Epigenetics turns genes on and off. The timing is essential for a person to be beautiful. A lot of this has to do with the mother and the parents. As we are formed in the womb. But all of our gifts, talents, abilities and even our own unique beauty is given to us at conception. I love looking at pictures of mothers and daughters and I am often amazed at how much they look alike.

My mom and my aunt use to tell me how handsome I was. Perehaps in their eyes I was. I am not so sure about the eyes of others.
