Open Sea

I was inspired to write Open Sea one day driving home listening to Oh, Sleeper. Micah’s lyrics are just so well written, like a story. I hope to one day write songs similar to his style. Open Sea is pretty much a metaphor about my conversion to Christianity 3 years ago. A Captain and his sailor’s stuck in the Open Sea, with storms surrounding them about to die. They have no one around to help them. The only option that’s left (ironically true in most of our lives) is to call out to God for help, thus believing in God and Jesus.

I find it interesting that in most of our lives, we wait to cry out to God as the last possible option; as if we want to try everything first-so we can avoid being subjected to God and being a Christian. Ha, it’s so funny. We are designed by God, yet we try and run from Him like we can run away from His control and power.

If you’ve come upon this page, you are now entering my private realm as a person. You are a close friend to say in other words. I’m not trying to be fake on here, I don’t want to present to you a false personality just because I go to church and am in a band that evangelizes about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I’m not perfect and do act in ways that most people don’t agree with most of the time. Regardless, I am loved by Christ and want to try and do what pleases Him as best as I can. Will I always though, no, so don’t hold me to high expectations because I will fail them. I like alcohol sometimes and have a problem with moving too fast in relationships. ha. If me revealing those things bother you-stay off of my tumblr nigga! -just sayin
