God lets us suffer, because He knows it is only temporary. In the grand scheme of all of eternity, this life is like not even a second. It is a puff of vapor that quickly disappears.
If a kid dies of cancer, it seems so sad and unfair. It seems they were robbed of a fair life. But if what God says is true, and He really resurrects us, and we really do have all eternity to spend, then that really doesn’t make it so sad when you see that this person gets the same reward and eternal happiness as people that lived 100 years.
Also, keep in mind that even though God let’s us suffer, it does NOT mean He doesn’t love us and suffer with us. Let me give you an example:
If you ever have a child, you already know before you have it that it will one day die (since we humans all die). But you still have it, right? Because you want to share in love and fellowship with your child. God loves us in the same way. He knows we will have troubles, sadness, and even death. But He is always there, and will take care of us all in the end.
