Why Good Things Happen to Bad People an Bad things to Good people?

I always used to think this until i watched the video the secret. I realised that we are what we think in our mind. It is the result of our thoughts. We attract things when we think a lot of this.

Who knows I have also wondered about this quite a lot, but I bet it's just to test our faith or something to see if we really our good people that nothing will stand in our way you know. No matter what bad things may occur always look on the bright side and keep walking forward that will make you a good person forever. Still maybe bad people work for their wealth, but maybe they get it by stepping on others along the path well I really don't know much. God has a plan for everybody and I guess we have to respect his wishes.

Before I answer your question, I just wanna say I am so entertained by your Avatar! It's kinda funny! Now with your question "Why Good Things Happen to Bad People an Bad things to Good people," I would say this is not at all true. If there would be times you see bad people seem to be enjoying a good life then believe me there is always a punishment that is in store for them and sooner or later they will reap their bad deeds. I always believe in sowing and reaping. Whatever you sow that you will reap. So if you sow bad you will reap bad in return while if you sow good you will reap good in return. God's eyes is everywhere beholding the evil and the good. Good people will always be rewarded in God's time. There are times good people suffer but that does not mean bad things will always be with them.

Sometimes what we see as a good things with other people is not good for ourselves, sometimes if we have all of the world we forgot God, and didn't care with Him anymore, that's why He makes us to remember Him always, and didn't stop depending on Him by praying, even if we didn't get what we wish and sometimes it looks we got a punishment in this world, i'm sure He provides us everythings "later", just like JC said , "If you want to follow Me, then do like Me" it means a sacrifice ... but when He really wants to help us, then nothing is impossible for Him, impossible is human lines ability, God is greater than it

Hi dear, It is you illusionary or imaginary view that good things are happening to bad people and bad things are happening to good people. All the good and bad things are defined by men on their present conditions. Your good thing may be bad thing for others. So the definition of good/bad has no meaning. A person getting a lottery of $10000 is not a bad thing for any one. Even of a millionaire getting a lottery worth that much is not bad for him, but we fee it is bad to get a $10000 to a rich man. So things all are like that only. A blind man hit on a vehicle is a bad thing. But if anyone are not obeyed the road rule, will attract accident. May be a blind or any body or a stone on the road also will get the hit. In such a way all the bad and good are made/created by human beings. If you think you have done a good thing, what is it meant? So think widely you will get great peace of mind or you will get sleep less nights. Regards, Thank-s

In some religion, they believe in Karma. What you have now, is from the good Karma that one has done in the previous life. So while they might be doing bad, they can still enjoy the good that they did previously. As for retribution, they will pay for the bad deeds they done either in the latter part of their life or in the next life. So it is not a matter of the evil-doers getting unpunished but rather the time for they to pay is not ripe yet.

the good things can only happen to bad people for so long until karma catches up to them.

Hi friend,Good people and bad people both have to face difficult times as well as happy moments in life.One doesn't face difficulties all the time through out the life ,they also live a happy life.If one face only sorrows in life he gets frustrated and hates to live,but he has to face and when he comes out of that he goes to the peak of happiness.But when bad people with all wealth and happiness suddenly get into trouble they learn a lesson.Some bad people howmuch ever they suffer they will never correct themselves.World is like that and we are also used to see such people.Thanks for sharing,happy mylotting.

An age old question which I have always been pondering about. It is as if He always wants to test the durance of those who truly believes in Him. But surely when His blessings showers then you don't have enough means to gather. you become so overwhelmed. there is a famous saying in our language which could be translated like this " In God's house it may be late to get your turn but surely it is never dark." Have faith on Him!

Hi, In my consideration there is no such thing as 'good' or 'bad'. Its our interpretation that makes things look like bad or good. If we start to believe that there is a good part in everything then our interpretation becomes optimistic. Our life changes when we realize that its our perspective that actually makes even the most inanimate and indifferent things appear as 'good' or 'bad'. In reality they remain indifferent as they are. The existence of both the light and darkness makes a thing visible to you. The thing has nothing to do with its visibility whatsoever. Now it is entirely up to you whether you will choose the light or the darkness. Like I often say, a truly happy person is also an excellent interpreter. Thanks. God bless you

first of all i want to tell i am beliver ,i do not leave any thing to god ,i am telling you old story or may be just story of hindu mythology ,same question was asked by Narad Muni to LORD Brhma ,why poor are in difficulties always ,Bramha did not answer instantly ,he told that he will answer later ,after sometime he asked Narad Muni to bring one brick from Mumbai City ,Narad was finding difficulty in finding a brick in the city of towers and appt ,after much travelling he found a depleted house where a very poor family was living in very poor and miserable condition ,he took a brick from that house and carried and handed over to Brahma ,Bramha asked why he took brick from already depleted house of very poorman ,Nrad told ,if he would have taken a brick from good building show of that building will be bad ,hence he took a brick from depleted house which was aleardy in bad shape

Plain and simple. Its just something that I like to call life. I'll also have to disagree about God not answering our prayers. But I honestly can't answer why some people are "punished" but I know that not all bad people who as you say who have wealth, most definitely do not have happiness. I honestly believe life is what you make of it. Things happen to good and bad people. Things also for good and bad people. I use to feel the same what you do. but as one mylotter said. "every dog gets its turn"

I am a Christian so I will say this in a Christian way. I think good things happen to bad people to make them realize that God still loves them and wants them to gradually change. He wants to give an opportunity for them to repent. Some may ask, why not punish them now since they are so wicked? The answer is that there is judgement day, when every unrepentant sinner gets punished. So, as long as that day hasn't come yet, all people have the chance to change. On the other hand, bad things happen to good people, because God wants them to realize that it is another opportunity for them to do another good deed. Just like what the Bible says, pray for those who persecute you, bless those who curse you.

Ho knows life is hard itself :D

I understand what you are asking. Habakkuk had asked God the same question. Why evil people prosper while the righteous suffer. God's answer was "They don't, not in the long run"..God is going to discipline the people and it isn't going to be a pleasant ecperience. You can be assured that God is going to do what is right. Just have confidence and hope. Be patient and trust in God.

Life is not fair. It's unfortunate that good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Of course, one must wonder if those bad things might turn otherwise good people into bad, because they are sick of bad things happening to them. I consider myself to be a fairly decent enough person but life does not go as I had planned. I think many times, the bad things that happen to us is to keep us in check, keep us humble. Make sure we do not get too arrogant. Of course, the good things happening to the bad people...well that's just life unfortunately. Eventually they may get what's coming to them, but its all about balance. Life would not be life if only good things happened to good people and bad things happened to bad people.

No one never know why God permits all these things happening in this world we live in. It is HIM who can only knows. It is HIS own will that will be followed not our own will. His thinking not our own thinking and His ways but not our own ways. We have our own destiny even before we are in the womb of our mother.It is plan destiny that God created us. It is a mystery that no one even the wise men can foretell. Even me cannot perceive such question. Let it be God's purpose for every human being on earth. For us we have so many reasons but for God He is the Sovereign, the Almighty who knows every beating of our heart, and the number of our hair.He is perfect master planer of all living and non living things.

I believe in God, but it's still an unfair world.

That is so true, it was always been this way, because life is sometimes so unfair, and you can do anything about it, is God`s decision for this to happend, so the reasons why this is happening are beyond our knowledge, only God knows them, and understands them. I wish things were different, but they aren`t.
