Stuff I hate

I really hate the saying, "God works in mysterious ways." It seems cheap and fake. But it seems to sit in the back of my throat when I don't have answers for things. So recently, when I didn't have answers, instead of jumping to the mysteriousness of God, I'm deciding to spend time with Him. Brushing my questions off with a cliche didn't seem to work this time. So instead, I want to be in His presence, hoping that someday the answers will show up. Whether it's a few days or months or decades. 

So for now, I'm having to settle for saying, "I don't know." It's kind of a relief. I'm leaving the big questions up to the Maker of the universe. I think His resume is slightly bigger than mine (sarcasm). So in the meantime I'm actively searching Him out, figuring out what He wants for me. And right now I honestly don't know. I'm just jumping in and trusting. Let's hope it doesn't turn out like Rose and Jack on the Titanic... man, the ending of that movie really bugs me. I swear they could have both fit on that door.
