Why me?

.....................
I can't form my words the way I want to right now so I'm just gonna write.

I pray and pray and pray for my family and yet.... 
I shouldn't ask "Why do I suffer?" but instead "Why don't I suffer more?"
I have to keep reminding myself that there are people worse off than I am..
My trusting in Him is gradually falling and it's hard to stay up
"He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance." (2Peter 3:9)
I read that the reason why we suffer is because it is an indication that there is something wrong.
God sends us through trials and tribulations so that we may stop and realize our dependence for Him and seek after Him.
I need to work on truly believing that He is the one who is in control. 
He has a purpose for everything good and everything not-so-warm-and-fuzzy.
"I am the Lord, and there is no other. I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the Lord, do all these things." (Isaiah 45:6-7)
I have to believe that. He, the Lord, do all these things.
I really don't know what else to do but to crawl up into a ball and hide behind God right now.
