Eddie, bad things do happen to good people. Sometimes people do bad things to other people. Yes, God could step in and intervene, but just as in the war in heaven, God stands for agency, and would cease to be God were He to deny anyone's ability to choose their actions. However, sometimes people are miraculously protected, and we have examples of that here in the Angels thread. Sometimes people are miraculously cured of cancer and other diseases. Faith is often a factor in those miraculous cures. God does have power to heal.

We may not understand all of the things that happen in this world, let alone in heaven. My belief is that in the end all will be made right. People who suffer in this life will be rewarded after this life is over. All that was taken from Job was restored to him. We may not be able to comprehend what could compensate for some losses, but it will in the end be compensated.

This life is a temporary state, and is a small fraction of our eternal existance. Some experience mortality for centuries, and some for only minutes or seconds. Each receives what is necessary for them, for their progression.
