Repost: Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
It's like finding the perfect place to eat - the food is great, the people friendly and you feel satisfied in so many ways. You go back, and something has changed - subtle yes, but still - the people are friendly, the food is great but you leave with something missing. Is it a message that you are on the right path but this isn't the place to stop yet? Are you looking for something that is impossible? Are you too difficult to please (although you feel as if you are only asking for the basics?)? Are you on the right path but still needing to move forward to where God is leading you, to where you need to be? With so many wonderful things, this one thing is something you desire and ache for, you miss and wish to find. This I am struggling with and one of my favorite U2 songs is echoing through my mind...does anyone know this feeling too?

I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing fingertips
It burned like a fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
When all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well, yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosened the chains
Carried the cross
Of all my shame
all my shame
You know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
