This is Kaliyuga - the age of quarrel.There will be kalah (clash) here.
One thing to understand is that everyone suffers the result of their own karma across lifetimes, never of someone else's. I know it sounds very harsh and very difficult for us to expect, esp for loved ones, but this is a fact. Nobody suffers because of someone else. That someone else is just the medium, this pain was to reach this person. If you remove that someone else, there will be some other medium, whether person or natural calamity, which will make this person suffer.
Coming to why Krsna's devotees have to suffer - to tell the world taht this world is dukhalayam ashaswatam - temporary and full of miseries. How can anyone be happy in a world of miseries. In the case of devotee, he is so absorbed in loving devotional service that he does not pay attention to the suffering and is able to easily tolerate.
The idea is to be happy - jahi vidhi rakhe ram, tahi vidhi rahiye - in whichever situation Ram keeps us, we should remain in that situation. WHat does this mean - any which ways we have to stay in the situation in which Ram has kept us, then what is the meaning of this statement? It means tahi vidhi khush rahiye - remain happy / contented in that situation only. That is how we show our gratitude to God.
I have tried to explain to the best of my ability. I hope it makes sense to you.
