Would You Help If You Could?

In my ongoing saga to avoid following in the foot steps of the Greeks and their worship of Zeus, which has as much of a story as the bible has about Jesus etc and whose believers were as convinced as we are, I continue my attempt to reconcile what Christians say the bible says and what I see.

One day a couple in their 30s rode Rampage via the ADA line. The woman used a walker. I thought, how sad so young. 

Would you heal that woman if you could? Why do you suppose God doesn't? 

God's creation is regulated by laws he established. This suggests a certain amount of suffering is inevitable. We benefit from the laws of nature and we suffer the consequences when they are violated.
 
Could it be that God cannot heal and abide by the laws of the nature of his creation? Is it healthy for Christians to continue to ask for and to thank God for acts he has never indicated he can or will do?
