Listen... God is calling you. Come to Me. For in Me there is hope.(Isaiah 40:31)

Pain is the trumpet call of God.
Every pain and misery you are going through is telling you something.
You are only a mortal..
Listen... God is calling you. Come to Me. For in Me you will find rest. (Matthew 11:28)

Busyness is the trumpet call of God.
All these busyness and endless work is telling you something.(Luke 10:40-42)
That your life is limited.
Listen.... God is calling you. Come to Me. For in Me you will have eternal life. (John 5:24)

Endless procession of material things is the trumpet call of God.

Reference:

Psalm 1:1-3
English Standard Version (ESV)

Book One
The Way of the Righteous and the Wicked
Blessed is the man[a]
    who (A)walks not in (B)the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in (C)the way of sinners,
    nor (D)sits in (E)the seat of (F)scoffers;
but his (G)delight is in the law[b] of the Lord,
    and on his (H)law he meditates day and night.
He is like (I)a tree
    planted by (J)streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
    and its (K)leaf does not wither.
(L)In all that he does, he prospers.

God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world. C S Lewis - The Problem of Pain

Life only has meaning when we realize life is meaningless without God. ~Burk Parsons
