It is SO CLICHE

I wanna say that everything is fine.
But I'm just sad. I'm sad and I've just been crying so much.
It's more change.

I'm about to graduate.
One of my very best friends, who I became close with so quickly, is leaving in a mere 9 days.
And I just don't know which direction God is pointing me to.

Like I said...more change.


You'd think it's something I'd be used to by now. But hey, whatever. I'm still not. That's just how life is, or so I hear. Those older and wiser than I, have expressed that life only gets harder. This stuff is easy, cause I'm not having to worry about children, bills and car problems. Blah, blah, blah.

I only hear half of the cliches anymore, because I feel like I've heard them all or said them all about a thousand times. So I'm just done saying them. It doesn't help anyone. Or so it feels.

I know it's not true.

Most likely, I'll just continue to say them and repeat them to myself when I need to hear them. I won't always believe it, but most cliches are true. They come with lots of truth. Although hard to hear, they do bring some comfort. And sometimes, they are just funny to laugh at.

So here are some classics...
"God has something better in store for you"
"You'll be stronger when it's over"
"Everything is gonna work out for the good"
"God's in control, he knows what he's doing"
"You'll learn something through this"


Just remember, God speaks through those cliches sometimes. You just have to be able to hear him. He is with you, my friends. Scripture is the best to leave you with, so here is something that has been an encouragement to me.

And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.
1 John 4:16
