Restless by Switchfoot



I am the sea on a moonless night,
Calling, falling, slipping tides
I am the leaky, dripping pipes
The endless aching drops of light
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 restless, looking for you
I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore
I’m looking for you

I am the thorn stuck in your side,
I am the one that you left behind,
I am the dried up doubting eyes
Looking for the well that won’t run dry

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

Oh blood of black and white and gray
Death and life and night and day
One by one by one
We let our rivers run

I am restless, I am restless
I am restless, looking for you
I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore
Looking for you

I can hear you breathing,
I can hear you leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling
I can feel you reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
'til the final healing
I'm looking for you

Until the sea of glass we meet
At last completed and complete
The tide of tear and pain subside
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
Looking for you

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

I can feel you breathing
I can feel you leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling
I can feel you reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
'til the final healing
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for you

The prayer of the gimper named JABEZ (read 1 Chronicles 4:9-10)

Hey guys! Thanks you so much for reading this post that I have just recently posted. I would really appreciate if you'll leave some comments. Thanks. I know, for some of you, or most of the Christians are familiar with this man named Jabez. And He's a gimper. What do we mean by gimper anyway? A gimper according to Seume was someone who always does a little more than what's required or expected. Are we like that? Do we always do the extra mile in everything we do? Or just do things plain and simple. And then that's the end of it? Our mind is always preoccupied on reaching success. But in the life of this man named Jabez. He did something in life that is really extraordinary that made God answer his prayer. If we will try to look back in the history, names does have its own meaning. And in that time where names are meaningful which greatly reflects who you are. (as what they used to say) The name Jabez, means "pain." Now, what are you thinking of right now?...

INCEPTION (A Review)

Christopher Nolan did it again this time. A movie that's so extraordinary and mind blowing as what most people say. It did hit the top charts and trends, especially on Twitter. Got lots of friends who said the same thing about it, so deep to the point that you have to keep yourself awake all the time while watching it. They said it's kind of similar to this Matrix movie. But what interests me the most is that, could this possibly happen in real life? We all used to have dreams. I, myself, have experienced the exact same thing. I felt like I'm in a subconscious world. I felt like I'm awake in that dream. Unknowingly what might happen. Well the idea of this is that Inception means the beginning or the start of something. So imagine yourself in a dream and going in to another dream. Isn't that a bit frightening? Inception was based on the notion of "exploring the idea of people sharing a dream space - entering a dream space and sharing a dream. That gives you the ...

Life is what you make it.

I am so thankful with the months that had passed. Indeed, He is always faithful to those who are in the same way faithful with Him. I've got lots of plans though in my life ahead. For I know He's the only who could show me the way to that path I should be headed to. There may be a lot of obstacles along the way, but I never lose hope. For I know that in every sacrifice I make, a reward is always on its way. I am so privileged to have people around who are always there to encourage me on believing myself. I can't imagine my life without them. Friends, former schoolmates, colleagues, and my relatives. What I'm most concerned about right now is on how to use most of my energy on things that would make up of who I can become someday. I know that I already have my job while I'm studying but, there's more than what meets the eye. Simply, I wanna make a difference. But how could I possibly do that. Was it just a career? Like developing people? Encouraging them on wha...
