In this life we will have many tribulations that we must endure and overcome in such a manner that builds the faith and brings glory to our Lord. Job 2:10

In reality we're all slowly dying as our limited and allotted time on stage expires and just one breath away from eternity. We are to use our time wisely right now today as tomorrow is promised to no one!
Always hug, love and laugh with those who mean so much to you as if there is no tomorrow, for tonight we go to sleep and tomorrow many thousands of souls will not wake up on average.

Consider our brothers and sisters in foreign lands that are murdered just for being ambassadors of Christ to a lost dark world.. Matthew 26:39

In the Lord's freedom and grace..........warrior on

All I know is that God knows what he does. All the bad and all the good in our lives, will even out at the end. We must trust and know that God has a purpose for everything. Never lose faith.

As long as you are a real Christian believer, you must pass through fire. We must tell the Truth because Truth must set us free when we know and accept it. Jesus said in John 16:33, "In this world we must have trouble but cheer up, for I have overcome the world."

1 pet 5:10, after we have suffered for while, God will perfect, establish and settle us, and this is the hope we have, that no matter what we are passing through, God knows it all, for there is no other way to eternity, only the narrow way. Even JESUS CHRIST passed through troubles in this world and overcome and gave us his shield of victory: Psalm 18:35. He understands our situation.

We must also know and understand that the fight is not about me and you, it is about the kingdom of God which is the Light, and the kingdom of the devil which darkness. We are the carriers of the Word of God, and through us the testimony of the power and miracle in the Word of God is there for the whole world to see, and this is what the devil doesn't like to see.

When we believe the Word of God it produce Faith, and for us to live a victorious life here on earth, we must do what the Word of God says, for the power to overcome the devil and his schemes is in the Word of God.
Now we must choose between what we need and what we want, either to stand with the Word of God and suffer for a while and receive the reward of eternal life, or live in sin in this world and burn in hell fire forever. Any decision we make will take us to our destination, so we must choose wisely, so the choice is ours. 

Jesus made himself available to help us in this fight of Faith, by shedding His blood on the cross of Calvary, and producing Grace, the divine enablement to overcome. He has given us his shield of victory: Psalm 18:35, so no excuses.

So no matter what we are passing through--trouble, sickness, tribulation, wickedness in this world--it cannot be compared to the Love of God towards us.

May the God of Hope fill us with all peace and joy in believing, that we may abound in hope through the power of the Holy Ghost, Amen. Rom 15:13, God bless you all in JESUS' NAME. AMEN.

Your question: “ Why is it that some Christians suffer more than others?”

A Father doesn’t want his children to suffer. But sometimes when our children disobey us, we have to correct them.

God is our Heavenly Father; he will correct his children as he sees fit.

Paul wrote the following: 

Hebrews 12:7: “If you endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons.”

As to why some suffer more than others, Jesus said this:

Luke 12:47: “And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes.”

Then we have the Apostle writing the following:

1 Corinthians 11:27: “Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.”

Where did this information come from? 

Psalms 89:29: “If his children forsake my law,
and walk not in my judgments;
If they break my statutes, and keep not my commandments; Then will I visit their transgression with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.
Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail.”

When a child of God disobeys him, they are chastised. Based upon your level of disobedience and sin in your life, you will be chastised according to God’s will, so you will not be condemned with the world. 

I hope this has given you some understanding of why some children of God suffer more than others.
