Deep calling Deep

Deep what is the meaning? When you say you are deep in a relationship or what not what do you mean. For some people deep means going above and beyond the surface and going down to the most mysterious level. Deep means going extending your love and hope and trust in a relationship. It means going beyond your surface emotions and really pressing in. It means going above those days when you just say I am ok but truly express how you actucally do feel. The problem now a days is so many of us I included are shallow people we don't trust going out any deeper with what we tell people. We get comfortable with just touching the surface details. We seemed to be like that little kid so afraid to go to the deep end of the pool because they cannot touch even if they have a lifeguard holding on to them. WE don't like going to the deep end in relationships because we are afraid we will drown in hurt, pain and freaking emotions. As I was looking up terms for deep they all seem to say extending far. It means letting go and actucally trusting that we will be ok in the end. It brings me to this story when I was younger I was so afraid to jump in the deep end during swim lessons because I was afraid I would drown but before I jumped in I saw my dad holding his arms wide open waiting for me to jump in them. At that moment I knew it was safe. See we do go deep in our hearts to some people but it is that trust that gives us the final security to just go deep. The trust also secures us around our hearts knowing that we will not drown. Deep calling deep in many relationships one in particular is most certaintly Jesus. He is saying my arms are open and you can go deep with me. Jesus wants us to open up to him and to let him know our heart. No more should we be shallow people with the one who created us. When we extend out heart out to him he will give you more of his. People deep is crying out to deep. God bless.
