As far as other peoples' faith it does kinda go like that. We do all have a spark of it and it can smolder or it can grow. a lot depends on what we do on our end. It is easy to say that no one deserve all the crap that comes their way. Is it a test? maybe, but tests come at the time when you are ready for the next grade like an EOCT. There is absolutely no logic to it though.
I have questioned my faith many times and I think I am better for it, but when the bad stuff comes I personally have never asked the "why me?" question. I am the "God help me!" type, not that one is better than the other I just ask for help a lot I guess. I take comfort in the fact that I believe I am heard whether the reply is to my liking or not.
God isn't threatened by our questions though, so there's that.

You know how Christians talk a lot about leaving things to God or handing things over to God? (and I realize that people who don't have this type of religious experience may have no truck with the concept). Anyway, for some reason I never feel like handing anger over to God, even though I consider that option and will pray for the ability to become forgiving, by contrast, and that seems to help! So why not with Anger? It's like the Anger is a hard ball of something that used to be a dog toy but now is a frozen blob in the yard (yeah the anger is cold, like revenge), and to deal with it you're going to have to thaw it and decide to put it in the trash. But instead I just let it sit out there in the yard, dirtying up the place, in the way, hard and immobile. I should try to get rid of it, should hypnotize myself and visualize handing that shit over to the Great Refuse Collector, but I feel like I made this refuse, and it's mine, and I neither wish to bother God with it nor give it away to God, as if I had options where God is concerned, lol.

That's another thing I've never been able to explain to people who don't believe in any gods and wonder what on earth I'm talking about. It's not like this was a choice I made one day - oh, I'll just decide the arguments work and I'll believe in God. No, it's just There regardless. I feel kind of distressed and nauseous when I read about people like Mother Teresa who apparently had periods of looking inside and not finding God at all, but going on with faith anyway. Here I find myself with it and it doesn't seem particularly deserved. I know someone, let us say, someone I know well, who due to inexplicable, unjust suffering is losing the sense that God is with anyone or real in the universe at all, and it kills me because this person used to be the one who wondered how/why I could legit entertain thoughts of agnosticism or atheism without running up against the obvious truth that there's a God. Well... wow. Why do I now have that truth and the person who suffers is thereby caused to lose it? Bad situation.
