I Am Restless

A few thoughts at the end.................please read....


First a song:
I am the sea on a moonless night
Calling falling, slipping tides
I am the leaky, dripping pipes
The endless, aching drops of lights

I am the raindrop falling down
Always longing for the deeper ground
I am the broken, breaking seas
Even my blood finds ways to bleed

Even the rivers ways to run
Even the rain to reach the sun

Even my thirsty streams
Even in my dreams

I am restless
I am restless
I am breathless
I’m looking for you

I am restless
I run like the ocean to find your shore
I’m looking for you

Running for the other side
The world that I’ve always been denied
I’m running for the infinite
With the tears of saints and hypocrites

Oh, blood of black and white and grey
Oh, death in life and night in day
One by one by one
We let our rivers run
They run restless
Run restless
Drifting and breathless
I’m looking for you

We run restless
We run like the ocean to reach your shore
I’m looking for you

I can hear you breathing
I can feel you leading
More than just a feeling

I can feel you you reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
Till the final healing
Everything completing

Until the sea of glass we meet
At last completed and complete
Where tide and tear and pain subside
And laughter drinks them dry

I’ll be waiting
Anticipating
All that I aim for
What I was made for

With every heartbeat
All of my blood bleeds
Running inside me
I’m looking for you
...........................

One of those days you know you should just go to bed and believe tomorrow will be better.

I haven't had much to share with all that happening around me.

This town is not the tower of strength it thought it was.

You can't put your trust in a university.....a person or people.....a football team.

You can't hope that will bring you peace and happiness.

It all is crashing and people are seeing the truth.

There is not much in this world, if anything, you can trust in that is seen with the naked eye.

It's the invisible things that are most real.

Love. Joy. Peace. Faith. Eternity. Faithfulness. 

They all come from God.

I was not on board for many years. Many years in His eyes is not the same as mine.

It feels like forever to me.

I know that one day is the same as a thousand to Him.

He does not measure time as we do.

However I wasted time. I spent it all on myself. I want to reach beyond my selfishness.

Be someone that can make some small difference.

If all it is is spending time loving the Father.........then I will have accomplished more than possibly my first 49 years.

Who knows?
