Most of us believe what we choose to believe. Reality has no place in our choices. Someone wrote that our acceptance of a truth depends on our perception of the person telling us the truth. If we trust the person we accept if we do not we reject. Facts have little to do with which we choose.
Christians believe everything God "wills" will happen. They are incorrect in that belief and they know it. The bible says God "wants" everyone to be saved. Christians do not believe everyone will be saved so in practice Christians do not believe what they say they do thus the dilemma why bad things happen to good people.
Christians pray for the sick and injured and celebrate every improvement as evidence of God answering that prayer. Christians do not think very highly of God's abilities. For some reason God has allowed their loved one to for example be injured and paralyzed. During the healing process that paralyzed person is able to move some part of their body. Christians celebrate that as God's healing power. If that would be correct is it too much to expect God to heal everything at the same time? Have you noticed that God has a problem with Cancer? Have you noticed that so far God has proven to be unable to regenerate amputated limbs? It appears God is very selective in the illnesses or injuries he chooses to heal.
