why do bad things happen to good people

Moses and Aaron had a tough time making the Israelites happy because they were always complaining about the lack of resources in the wilderness. Moses and Aaron never failed to go to the Lord in desperation to ask for help. And the Lord always heard their prayers. Sometimes He gave them what they asked for. Sometimes He didn't. He could have given them endless grain, figs, grapes pomegranates and water. But He didn't. And so people had to ask. But when God provided, they remembered God.

So why do bad things happen to good people? Why do we always have to ask for things from God? Perhaps God knows human nature and how complacent and unappreciative humans are, and how prone we are in forgetting Him when life is all good. But because God created us and wants to have a relationship with us. He doesn't allow that to happen.

Why do people start going to church when they lost their job, when they lost their partner, when they are desperate and feel lost only to stop going when they found a job, found a partner or when they feel fulfilled. That's human nature.

And God knows too well.
