Everything happens for a reason. Certain things happening are God's way of communicating with us, teaching us a lesson, or guiding us in the right direction. While you may seem upset about something, and emotions run high and pain cuts deep, finding meaning and a message through painful change is what makes you a better person.
As I near the final days of high school, so much change is happening, and more on top of that. Being a scheduled and organized person, I hated change. If it was not in the 'routine' I would freak out and not accept it. I think God has used the many changes in my life to communicate that change is good, and starting anew in the next chapter of my life is a good thing. I have no need to be sad. He has used inspiration through others and situations among some to place a few realizations in my life and I could not be more appreciative.
Change can absolutely be scary. Not knowing what happens next, how to handle the next situation, not understanding the massive amount of emotions swelling in your heart. Change is stressful, trying to cope and make smooth transition is a difficult thing. Faith is necessary to make it through change. A leap of faith may be better than creating a 'smooth' transition in change. Change is hard to understand, but finding the purpose in change helps.
Credence is another word for purpose, meaning, or reason. I just needed another 'C' word for the title (thank you thesaurus.com). Finding that purpose and meaning in all of the change is what makes the pain and emotion worthwhile. Even the simple fact of knowing there is reason for pain or change, even without knowing what that is, is comforting. Finally connecting the many changes and understanding, or what I think is understanding is the most refreshing, comforting feeling of relief I may have ever felt in my entire life. I am happy.
