I've posted this before, with unclear answers .but it's an ongoing thing, so...I notice {do you?} that as I go through life, I run into "obstacles" trying to better my situation. When "problems" pop up, , 1, it's very often, and 2, whereas for some others , the solution comes rather easily{if they have the problem at all} for me, it's always a struggle.Also, I just barely get over one problem, and either, it pops back up, or another one "pops up" almost immediately afterward, so that I'm in this state of constant struggle.Sometimes, there's even more than one problem hanging over me at once. Now that's the half of it, but here comes the injustice,what I asked the question about--as I'm in the throes of the "umpteenth" problem,I feel beaten down enough,but as if to rub salt in my wounds,while dealing with this, I hear of some unsaved person, who, not only is unsaved, but usually has some bad ongoing sin{like a neighbor who is a drug addict, }they have victories in their life that are evading Christians!!{I'm not imagining it, and it's happened too many times to be "coincidence".I've had people,who I saw were doing things the devils way.and mocking me for doing it Gods way, and I thought, they'll fall from following the wrong path, so what happens?They wind up SURPASSING me!!So, 2 questions, have any of you noticied this, too, or questioned it,and 2, why is that happening,that the unsaved seem to have an easier time getting what they want than us? Something I don't understand here...

“Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers!
Trust in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices! Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil. For the evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land. In just a little while, the wicked will be no more; though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there. But the meek shall inherit the land and delight themselves in abundant peace. The wicked plots against the righteous and gnashes his teeth at him, but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he sees that his day is coming. The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those whose way is upright; their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken. Better is the little that the righteous has than the abundance of many wicked. For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous. The Lord knows the days of the blameless, and their heritage will remain forever; they are not put to shame in evil times; in the days of famine they have abundance. But the wicked will perish; the enemies of the Lord are like the glory of the pastures; they vanish—like smoke they vanish away. The wicked borrows but does not pay back, but the righteous is generous and gives; for those blessed by the Lord shall inherit the land, but those cursed by him shall be cut off. The steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the Lord upholds his hand. I have been young, and now am old, yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his children begging for bread. He is ever lending generously, and his children become a blessing. Turn away from evil and do good; so shall you dwell forever. For the Lord loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever. The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice. The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not slip. The wicked watches for the righteous and seeks to put him to death. The Lord will not abandon him to his power or let him be condemned when he is brought to trial. Wait for the Lord and keep his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land; you will look on when the wicked are cut off. I have seen a wicked, ruthless man, spreading himself like a green laurel tree. But he passed away, and behold, he was no more; though I sought him, he could not be found. Mark the blameless and behold the upright, for there is a future for the man of peace. But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed; the future of the wicked shall be cut off. The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble. The Lord helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in him.”

People in the bible (PSALMS eg,) already had this problem. Do not give up because that is Satans reasons for giving such people easy success. Instead continue in the right ways and trust the Lord to help you- then he will. This is very normal, does not mean you do anything wrong. Maybe it comforts you that he Lord will one day bring justice and reward you for staying on the right way

It's not wealth, mainly that the goals they set come easily to them, whereas I run into obstacles.
I´m sorry for you. But in the end of a day you belong to the victorious side!
