It Doesn’t Have to be that Deep, 

 a test the waters conversation with God we should start to steep.

.

To be with Jesus, it’s a simple Yes,

 not a PhD dissertation, nor graduation address.

.

It doesn’t have to be that deep,

 although it comes from one’s deep soul, really deep.

.

It can simply be a statement: ‘Yes’

 and ‘I want to learn more, I confess.’

.

Jesus collects the tears we weep.

 From His mouth, our ears should steep.

.

And to feel the full Mercy Blessing Bless,

 We need to believe in Jesus for FORGIVENESS.

.

So let us make Jesus and His Word be the company we keep.

 To start a relationship deep, let us make that continual PEEP.

.

Let us continue to believe and let us say: YES!

 And in faithfulness, KNOW He is the Lord Jesus that we confess.

.

And now we can reap goodness from our deep.

AMEN – and AMEN to Keep Deep.

Ephesians (a letter from Paul to strengthen that church community) chapter 3:14-19

For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Psalm 1
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers. 

Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
