Why do bad things keep happening to good people in life?

Karma is a nice idea that everyone gets what they deserve, but it's just plain not reality. There is luck and randomness in the universe and sometimes good thing happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Some people get a disproportional amount of one vs. the other and life just isn't always fair. You can try your best to "make your own luck" as they say but too many complicated things beyond your own control happen because the world is too vast to control much of it.

Matthew 5:45

"He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous".

Try to think of life as a novel and everyone in the book is a page. All the pages are woven together to complete a story. Reading 1 page does not explain the whole story. Sometimes you go through hardships for your benefit as that is when growth of character is greatest. Sometimes you go through hardships because it might benefit somebody else in some way. And it's hard times that you need to double down on trusting God's plan for you. He is right there with you in all of it.

Bad things happen to good people because life operates on probability, universal natural laws, and the free will of others, rather than a moral scoreboard. Suffering is a universal reality, and bad luck, illness, or systemic issues can affect anyone, regardless of their moral character.

Because bad people judge good people and pass down the sins and punishment and demons to good vulnerable people. Bad people see a tiny badness in good people and they do worst things on behalf of good people and the punishment transfer to less bad people. They are cockroaches of the universe eating whatever fallen down on the dirty floor and dance at night partying in the darkness while you are sleeping.

The world is changing and changing fast

And with that the bad people have all ready made there choices a long time ago

There is a holy war going on its been going on for a long time evil knows that they're going to lose in this war

So they entwined themselves with good people they treat drama chaos to get them to get upset to change to move to that side instead of the Holy side

Sometimes good people are just in the wrong place at the wrong time but no matter what if they have their faith if they have their strength whatever that bad thing is after it passes you will see the beauty that came from it it's not bad it's just bad in that moment but there's something great that will come from it it's a life lesson we go through them all the time

When you go through something you have to accept it and acknowledge it and move on the sooner you can do that the faster everything will come together it's a way of making us grow of making us learn to become better bigger for whatever destiny that we have

And I can tell you no matter what we think is bad in life that happens something great will come from it it will give you strength like you will not believe it will change who you are if you get the message from it if you learn from it

When you are good you get challenged all the time to become better because we hold ourselves back in so many different ways and we all know that

So I'm not saying that I'm right but I'm not saying that I'm wrong I'm saying that somewhere in between there it makes a lot of sense to me because I've learned it I've lived it and I've watched it happen

I know that feeling all too well 🙁 seems to be some sort of universal rule

Karma is a bitch and favors bad people and punishes good ones

[strateguy632]

because they are not rellay good to most people and family.

[Staximus]

Being a good person does not protect you from bad people and bad things happening. People are not automatically street smart, financially savvy, etc. They have to learn those things

Good things don't magically happen just because you are good lol. Real life isn't a movie.
