Odds are that your search for deeper meaning and purpose did not kick into overdrive until a crisis turned your world inside out and upside down.
God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.
C. S. Lewis
As awareness grows, you realize that adversity may be a signal that what you are pursuing may not serve your highest good.
It is often better to have a great deal of harm happen to one than a little; a great deal may rouse you to remove what a little will only accustom you to endure.
Grenville Kleiser
You begin viewing frustrations, difficulties, and impediments as clues that angels are nudging you to follow another path.
One of the secrets of life is to make stepping stones out of stumbling blocks.
Jack Penn
