How Shallow Feels

Maybe it’s just that you don’t know what shallow looks like…
what shallow feels like…
what shallow tastes like until you know the fullness of depth.

The sweet tastes …
with the bitter…
the beauty…
with the ugly…
the overwhelming sense of “you belong”
with the sense of “sticking out”
that echoes in your soul through depth.

And yet… It’s enough to make you never want to feel the shallow again.

Never, never, never again…

Lord, protect me from the shallow.
May I encourage others to depth with Your words… not my own.

I love you, Lord.
