Why Does God Allow Suffering?

A lot of people believe that the future is not predetermined and we have the final say in where our lives go. But no matter what, we start to doubt our beliefs, because there are a lot of situations, where the innocents are punished and there seems to be no justice in the world. A higher power still makes us suffer, even if we are really careful with our decisions.
I would like to address a problem that I was personally experiencing. A lot of kids in former Soviet Union countries are affected by corruption in high schools. It is impossible to get good grades, unless you bribe the teacher. I refused to continue this tradition and that’s why my GPA was not the best. Unfortunately, the teachers do not care about you; and there should be someone who is interested in student’s success, besides the parents of the child.
Another example of life being not fair for some individuals would be the current situation in Turkey. ISIS has come to hold territory in both Syria and Iraq and now continues to attack the other lands. This terrorist group is killing lots of people to create an Islamic State ruled by one leader. The rest of the world starts to think that all Muslims are terrorists, when it is absolutely not true.  These kinds of events make us wonder why some people suffer and others do not.
