Men (humans) are not as the image of God. he created them not to be like him but to be the symbols of his powers.
I sometimes might think that God have sense of homour by putting people in trouble and then get them out of it or keep them stuck in it. But, I still can't believe that he is enjoying what is happening to us, he created us to be happy not to be sad.
Also, may be that's just what I believe, but I do take life as a task that should be completed.
