Hey, thanks for the responses everyone.
A mentor/friend of mine died earlier this year of cancer. She took me under her wing about 10 years ago and gave me my first significant job. She was a devout Christian, attended church weekly, volunteered, and was an all-around top-shelf person. Never smoked or drank.
Seems to me that this would have been the type of person that should have received some kind of divine intervention, if God is handing them out.
For every anecdote of God assisting someone, there are dozen if not hundreds where God should assist someone but doesn't.
Not trying to break anyone's faith, but hopefully that sheds light on why some people don't believe.
