The other day I was thinking about the statement, “As deep cries out to deep.” I love this phrase. I think it’s just so…so full…so deep. =)
Anyway, I was thinking about it remembering my “fear” or maybe just maybe my humbling respect for deep things (the ocean). I started thinking about the fact that there is depth in the earth and if it is crying out to another deep that parallels it, what deep would that be? Then I realized that space, the sky, is in a way deep. It starts at the earth and reaches to places we cannot even imagine. And I noticed how beautiful a symbol that was of us and God.
We are deep, we even have places that we where we don’t even know how far they reach. But we have an end, we are finite. Our God, however, is infinite and there is no end to His depth. We may think we have come to the end of Him at times, but we haven’t because we can’t. Our minds cannot comprehend this kind of depth because we don’t see that in any other finite creation.
So we, as the the finite earth, cry out to Him, who is as infinite as the sky…….
Just food for thought.

P.S. By request: This is the dress that I am Seriously looking at buying. The way this website it distorts the color a little but it definitely looks like a mango color, very orange. I promise it looks better on than it does on the mannequin. *shrugs her shoulders* We’ll see, but I’m pretty sold on it.

That is a pretty cool thought; something you’d just want to sit and meditate on for a while.
Remember your really cool testimony from chemistry – about God holding the atom together? I came across a similar one along the same lines of your entry. Next time you see me in person remind me to tell you about it!
Much love,

DAAAaaang, thats pretty hot, now just have to see you in it =). So what exactly is this dress for by the way?

wow, now that’s deep. hehehe
Hey, that dress looks just like one that we saw when shopping for Esther’s dress, remember? The one we saw in RSVP was brown. It wasn’t as purdy in brown, even tho that’s one of my favorite colors right now. I think being the color that you’ve chosen will be far purdier, expecially since you’re all tight and beau-full right now. hehehe You’re running FOUR MILES now! Come-on with that!! I’m so proud of you!! I’m not running at all yet. poopy
Did you check your MAIL????????
much love and chocolate! beJeweled
It’s for my banquet in March…
HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!
nice dress!!! i like it. happy valentines day btw. miss ya lotsabigail
Man Ashley you are gonna look so beautiful!
About your post (i just typed out a whole like 3 paragraphs on what i thot about it, but then the puter froze, ha fun) I loved it.
And i was praying about that last night. It always is so powerful when i hear that song from Rita Springer “deep sing to my deep, in the roar of your waterfalls.” Infact many times it just brings me to my knees. The deepest parts of us. The hardest parts to keep beautiful, are the ones that make the biggest difference. Like it takes real strength to grow virtue and character. na mean? But G-d, He abides in the deepest parts of us. I mean the heart is sooo deep. And so when we allow that depth of us (or the depth He has put in us) to show, then we glorify Him the very most. Because, so many poeple are not.
The world today is not showing the depth inside of itself. Which is sad. But true. Anyways i love you chika.

dang four miles? I’m not sure I’ve ever intentionally run that many consecutively… good girl though, Ashley… I’m proud of you.. and it’s a nice dress… though it’s hard to judge, when I haven’t really seen you but once. however, I kinda wish I could be there… but oh well. no point in wishing. anyways, I’ll check you later… I would’ve commented sooner, but I was just inconsiderate, I suppose. in a literal sense. but hey. perhaps I’ll talk to you in the near-distant future… or maybe some other future… “when life is in dischord, praise ye the Lord”… once again, thank you.
