Lots of people want to go to heaven but still don't want to die. You can't have it both ways. There in "no good thing dwelling in our flesh"

"God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose" is a true scripture, but I am pretty sure the focus in on the afterlife, not the present one.

The flesh doesn't get saved. The soul and spirit do. Salvation is 100% good, but we all must die once, and after that is judgement.

Jesus Himself said "For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it." That's His salvation and that is VERY good.

But those that think God is there to give them a good and perfect natural life have never read the Bible. Remember, even the 12 original apostles all died. None of us are better then they were.
