On Pain and Suffering

“Pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.”

― C.S. Lewis

Lewis’ quote incite in us the strength of God’s voice in the different moments of our life situations. Simplistically, the converse is true of course – God’s voice is even throughout – it’s a reflection of our readiness to listen – after all, when the going is good, who needs consolation?
