Examples of blessings of the Deep: knowledge, understanding and wisdom.

Gen 49:25 NET because of the God of your father, who will help you, because of the sovereign God, who will bless you with blessings from the sky above, blessings from the deep that lies below, and blessings of the breasts and womb

Gen 49:25 BBE Even by the God of your father, who will be your help, and by the Ruler of all, who will make you full with blessings from heaven on high, blessings of the deep stretched out under the earth, blessings of the breasts and of the fertile body

Prov 18:4 NET The words of a person’s mouth are like deep waters, and the fountain of wisdom is like a flowing brook

Prov 20:5 BBE The purpose in the heart of a man is like deep water, but a man of good sense will get it out
Psalm 42:7 BBE Deep is sounding to deep at the noise of your waterfalls; all your waves have gone rolling over me.

Knowledge, understanding, wisdom and counsel is liken to water of the deep. This is applicable to either God or man.

The Bible is God's Deep. Daily we draw treasures out of this deep with the help of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is calling or communicating to our spirit, as Deep calling to deep, the Holy Spirit transferring Treasury Funds. Through journalization, we put this daily treasure into our pool store. Drawing water out of our treasure pool is easy at the beginning as it is still shallow. However, as God blesses you with more treasures from His word, your treasure pool becomes deep. Searching by flipping through the pages of your journal is now time consuming as it is just organized by date.

After 2 years of abundance of daily insights recorded to around 5 journals, I decided to convert everything into electronic form so that they will be easily searchable. Initially, they are all just HTML files. I tried to use compiled HTML in the beginning so that it is possible to perform searches in my Windows Mobile PDA but later discontinued. Then I started to convert the HTML files into wiki. Now since I haven't finished the wiki conversion yet, the default search engine of Mediawiki do not do stemming, and Notepad search is a bit limited and very slow for the HTML files, I am trying Apache Lucene, a powerful full-text search API and engine. And in the future, I will be upgrading also my wiki to use Lucene.
