Ever attended a sports camp? Or into training for a sport? If not I am gonna give you simple example here. Coaches tend to sit down watching trials of students from whole school. Then select students and work on them. Do you know what process of working actually looks like? It's one hell of a torture for newbies. Coaches or seniors start from physical training. This includes running through the campus for 50 times and they will be at your head if they saw you hanging somewhere apart from running. Then in next level they train you to adapt. For example for being a football goalie there is a certain posture how to stand and play. They teach you it and poof. Then they leave you alone. They wouldnt be there as harshly for you and may be  turn to others. You as a kid may think oh goody go the old hag is finally off my head. Then you can practice as you please without any burden or fear of getting scolded as you used to. You still run 50 rounds around the campus early in morning and do your stuff. They will only come forward to scold you if they see your that foot isnt placed in right way. This may go like hey you do you not love that foot of yours? Ofc you do. Then they tell you sort of remind you how to put it and again they poof. So up until final season whatever this goes on. Only best ones from camp are selected to appear in actual game.

Same is the case with us and God. God gave us life. He sent us in this world with curriculum how to live inform of religion and took care of our needs. He is like that coach who showed you techniques and basic things to build your mojo for game of life. Then he left us alone until the day of judgement promising heaven or hell (final game). Now listen closely kiddo; who are we now? We are like that person or that kid that has been taught everything but is now free to practice. God said whatever you wanna do go for it. He isnt gonna put this nose into your conducts. If lying is bad; you know and you life. Its your action. Just like the kid who was trained to run 50 rounds around the campus. It's for their own good if they do it goody go their physical health. If not that's okay because it's not that much big kind of blunder if you skip 10 rounds a day. God knows we as creatures of mud were programmed to make mistakes. He is letting us go free like go here  is curriculum see you on result day. But it's not like he is gone. He is there watching over us. Potentially ignoring those little blunders I mentioned. But if somewhere we happen to trip or may be end up gonna make a big mistake. He is there like that coach to guide us through it. Sometimes when we are too full of ourselves and distracted from right path into merry making. He lifts up his hands and shakes our core to turn ourselves towards him. From here sufferings generate. Sufferings in my opinion are like a reminder of divine power. They can be earned or non earned. But the point here which is needed to be understood is that happen to clear our insight about right path and bring better understanding for whole system.

You were true. He is there watching over us. But that's half truth you are seeing dear here. He gave us everything beginning and end. But the middle part we have to fill it up ourselves to reach our end. He is there guiding but not dictating like controlling people. God is kind. He knows healthy relationships are bilateral. This is why he has given you full hold on your life how to live. He never wanted clones to wander around. He made each of us an empowered house of light equipped with different purposes to keep this earth going. He does have interest in you otherwise why would you ever been made in first place. He is source of love, kind, empathy an ultimate centre of moderation. He sees, he knows, he is guiding you. He isnt someone who would not take your dictations because the way to prayer and communicating with him is open. The question here is that are you willing to try and trust on the divine power. It's okay if you dont wanna but just not trusting and submitting because you think he isnt listening lil one. Sit down and reflect yourself the rest of choices are yours. I dont wanna exaggerate it into spirituality or mysticism. I explained you in plain logic but incase you want scientific evidence I am willing to give you those. Hope this helps.
