God gives us hardship in our lives because it makes us dependent upon Him, and not mankind. He wants a relationship with us because we are His children. He loves us, and just wants us to come back. He won't force you, He gives you the choice because it makes the love meaningful.

God doesn't autistically micromanage peoples' lives so he didn't give your friend cancer.

Well according to the Bible not even a sparrow hits the ground without gods knowledge so he kinda does in a way.

Also the whole pre-destination thing. In a logical sense, if that were true, we are just playing out a very elaborately scripted stage performance.

you don't have to pray or love or hate God, OP, just try to spend time with your friend, or just do whatever you think you'll regret the least

not only that, you need to use what God gave you to help your friend.
if it´s a smart brain, think about a cure.
if it´s money, pay for his treatment
if it´s a pussy, help him ease his pain
if it´s a priest, pray for him accordingly.
if it´s a pagan, just do a ritual for him.
if it´s a farmer, grow organic food for him
if it´s a engineer make a good bed for him.
people just don´t wanna act accordingly to their talents anymore.
your talents are given by God for a reason, use it for people, like Jesus did.

Yeah, you got a problem with that? You will die when God decides it's time.
