3 Signs You’re Taking One of Life’s Many Tests

The universe goes silent

1. You Have to Let Go of Something You Love The Most

If you have a calling, you can’t get attached to anything. You can't get attached to the physical world because you're a spiritual being. The world will stop you. It will hold you. It can distract you. When you get attached, you remain. Then you get stagnant and you lose yourself.

When you lose yourself, you lose everything.

You lose your identity. You lose sight of your mission. You lose sight of the bigger picture. You forget it all. All that you'd plan to do. You forget your purpose and lose your soul.

The universe has your back. If you have a calling, you're protected and divinely guided. This is why life tests you to make you smarter and wiser to discern all the ways you could lose your soul and your way.

Before the universe entrusts you with a purpose, it will test you to see where your heart really is. It tests you on how attached you are to the world and the things in it. It tests you on your willingness to easily let go.

Where there’s attachment, there's suffering. The universe knows this and will save you from things that will bring unnecessary suffering and delay. It saves you by training you. When you train on character, you're tested to see where your treasure is.

If it's a job that keeps your focus from your calling, you lose it. If it's someone you've grown crazy over that preventing you from focusing, they leave. If it's a place, you can't go anymore.

This is to teach you that earthly things are quickly lost. They're not eternal things. The universe is teaching you to keep your focus on your bigger picture.

This place is not home.

You're just journeying through. There’s some place you're working to get, but it's not the world, so don’t get attached.

2. You're Having to Wait Longer Than You'd Like

If you have a purpose, you're guided to fulfill it. You have help all around. They see things you don't see. They hear everything and know what's going to happen. This is why you're being made to wait sometimes. It’s protection.

You will have to learn what it means to be patient.

Love is the most important thing to have, and love is patient.

You will be tested on your ability to wait on divine timing and follow divine instructions. This is the hardest test.

Humans are always up to something. Waiting and delays are torture to the human mind and that's why you must undergo that test. You have to be okay while you wait.

Delays, roadblocks, and obstacles sometimes happen to protect us. It keeps you safe from the things you can’t see, hear, or ever know.

Through the delays, you learn that life is not always smooth-sailing. Delays protect you from turbulence, prepare you for the ups and downs, and can save you from beasty storms. It shows you to learn to go slow, so you're ready for the twists and turns of life. Through waiting, you build your character.

If you have a purpose, trust the process. The test is never to punish you but to prepare you.

Good things come to those who wait, and the longer the wait, the greater the reward.

When you get it after waiting so long, you don’t take it for granted.

3. You Feel Like Everything is Falling Apart

If you have a mission to fulfill, you will be met with opposition. Things won't go as easily as you want. The journey will get hard and it’ll feel like everything is falling apart.

You’re going about your life without a care in the world and all of a sudden, everything is crumbling down. Will you still have faith?

How can you hold your faith when everything has fallen apart and you're feeling broken?

This is how you're tested.

When things fall apart, can you trust that you're protected and divinely guided? Can you trust the process? Can you be still and not lose it?

Faith is hard to keep when things are falling apart, but you must hold on to your faith or you fall into fear. Fear is of the world and you must get attached to nothing. Not even fear.

Fear nothing by having crazy faith.

Faith is the pathway to a relationship with God. It takes crazy faith to believe.

When things are falling apart, your faith is being tested. When your faith is tested, your relationship with God is tested. Then your life is tested.

You sometimes lose it all.

Will you hold on to faith when life shakes you to the core?

Can you handle uncomfortable life events with calmness? Can you adapt to sudden unexpected changes? Can you have faith that you're safe and fear not even when you're walking alone in the darkness?

The universe wants to help you remember who you are, help you grow, evolve and get back on the right track so you can continue your race.

Tests aren't fun. It's silent and no one will answer you. But if you learn from lessons, do your best, and pass the test, you are given far more abundantly than you lost. You are catapulted so far ahead that you can't even remember those years you waited so well.

These seemingly difficult phases of your life are not what it looks like.

Trust the process.

Have faith that there’s a much bigger purpose. The things that fall apart will fall back into place.

You'll see.
