As the Deep calls to the Deep,

don't the Christ-allowing also say, "Hey, how's it going?"

Perhaps the saddest thing of all is that no-one will even bother to dance upon your grave.

That’s because I intend to be buried at sea.

The Hebrew word translated here as “deep” refers to the deepest depths of the sea. The sons of Korah exiled with David had lost all footing, and they felt as if recurring waves of trouble had plunged their souls into a bottomless ocean of sorrow and despair. The prophet Jonah used similar language to describe his predicament after God’s discipline in his life: “You hurled me into the depths, into the very heart of the seas, and the currents swirled about me; all your waves and breakers swept over me” (Jonah 2:3).

We hit upon the meaning of deep calls to deep when we recognize that human needs are great, but the riches of God are greater. Our wisdom is shallow, but His knowledge and judgments are unsearchable.

As you might imagine, I was thinking along a different axis, but I do very much appreciate your reply. Thank you.
