I find two instances of "tea" in the MSG(The Message) translation.\n\nIsaiah 29:8 (The Message)\n\nLike a hungry man dreaming he's eating steak and wakes up hungry as ever,Like a thirsty woman dreaming she's drinking iced tea and wakes up thirsty as ever, So that mob of nations at war against Mount Zion will wake up and find they haven't shot an arrow, haven't killed a single soul.\n\nJeremiah 16:7 (The Message)\nno one will care, no one will say, "I'm sorry,' no one will so much as offer a cup of tea, not even for the mother or father.

First there is a link below with an annotated version. It is below if you want to read it.\n\nONCE upon a time an old queen, whose husband had been dead for many years, had a beautiful daughter. When she grew up she was betrothed to a prince who lived a great way off. Now, when the time drew near for her to be married and to depart into a foreign kingdom, her old mother gave her much costly baggage, and many ornaments, gold and silver, trinkets and knicknacks, and, in fact, everything that belonged to a royal trousseau, for she loved her daughter very dearly. She gave her a waiting- maid also, who was to ride with her and hand her over to the bridegroom, and she provided each of them with a horse for the journey. Now the Princess's horse was called Falada, and could speak.\n\nWhen the hour for departure drew near the old mother went to her bedroom, and taking a small knife she cut her fingers till they bled; then she held a white rag under them, and letting three drops of blood fall into it, she gave it to her daughter, and said: "Dear child, take great care of this rag: it may be of use to you on the journey."\n\nSo they took a sad farewell of each other, and the Princess stuck the rag in front of her dress, mounted her horse, and set forth on the journey to her bridegroom's kingdom. After they had ridden for about an hour the Princess began to feel very thirsty, and said to her waiting- maid: "Pray get down and fetch me some water in my golden cup out of yonder stream: I would like a drink." \n\n"If you're thirsty," said the maid, "dismount yourself, and lie down by the water and drink; I don't mean to be your servant any longer."The Princess was so thirsty that she got down, bent over the stream, and drank, for she wasn't allowed to drink out of the golden goblet. As she drank she murmured: "Oh! heaven, what am I to do?" and the three drops of blood replied:\n\n"If your mother only knew,\nHer heart would surely break in two."\n\nBut the Princess was meek, and said nothing about her maid's rude behavior, and quietly mounted her horse again. They rode on their way for several miles, but the day was hot, and the sun's rays smote fiercely on them, so that the Princess was soon overcome by thirst again. And as they passed a brook she called once more to her waiting-maid: "Pray get down and give me a drink from my golden cup," for she had long ago forgotten her maid's rude words. But the waiting-maid replied, more haughtily even than before: "If you want a drink, you can dismount and get it; I don't mean to be your servant." Then the Princess was compelled by her thirst to get down, and bending over the flowing water she cried and said: "Oh! heaven, what am I to do?" and the three drops of blood replied:\n\n"If your mother only knew,\nHer heart would surely break in two."\n\nAnd as she drank thus, and leaned right over the water, the rag containing the three drops of blood fell from her bosom and floated down the stream, and she in her anxiety never even noticed her loss. But the waiting-maid had observed it with delight, as she knew it gave her power over the bride, for in losing the drops of blood the Princess had become weak and powerless. When she wished to get on her horse Falada again, the waiting- maid called out: "I mean to ride Falada: you must mount my beast"; and this too she had to submit to. Then the waiting-maid commanded her harshly to take off her royal robes, and to put on her common ones, and finally she made her swear by heaven not to say a word about the matter when they reached the palace; and if she hadn't taken this oath she would have been killed on the spot. But Falada observed everything, and laid it all to heart.\n\nThe waiting-maid now mounted Falada, and the real bride the worse horse, and so they continued their journey till at length they arrived at th

I think it is prayers of "contrition".  An Act of Contrition is a prayer to express sorrow for sins.  I hope this helps.

How about 'Inner Fruit' as they all talk about the Fruit of the Spirit. Two words"deep with" is repeated like a theme or motif. So even "Deep Within" can serve as a title.Make whatever ttle  one that stands out in a crowd, a few notches above the others. Keep on writing. You have talent.

It is written, "Lean not on thine own understanding" Trust in the Lord... Christ - the Word. Obviously, don't give anything to trolls... don't throw your pearls before swine. Contribute to those in need, as the Lord directs.

(Isaiah 54:4-8)  "Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; ... 6 For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God. 7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee. 8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer\n.

I'm taking a stab at it without reading the context in which it was used.\n \nPeople use their devotion to god as a justification for their own motives and actions.  By claiming--especially if ostentaciously so--to be doing the work of god, people often mask their own motives, perhaps even unbeknownst to themselves.  Moreover, their claims of doing god's work insulate themselves against critics of their actions.  "If you oppose my actions, then you oppose god's will."   Unfortunately, the motives of the self-righteous when stripped of their piousness often appear patently contradictory to the values the "devoted" supposedly are attempting to espouse.   \n\nReligion can easily be used as a rationalization for an individual's action, regardless of whether the action is agreement with the principles of the religion or contradictory to them.  \n\nInterestingly, this can be seen in the action of a certain president and a certain leader of a group he opposes.   Each individual act in their own self-interests while blanketing himself in a cloak of religion.\n\n------------\nThe bible warns of devotion's visage and pious acts†:\nBook of Matthew (Chapter 6):\n2: Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. \n3: But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth: \n4: That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly. \n5: And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. \n6: But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. \n7: But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

It's part of a song I think Tom T. Hall sang years ago.  It probably means what you think it means. Isn't this the ideal for a man?  For me, I prefer a slow horse, my slightly older man, iced tea and more money too! LOL  (I am a granny, ya know)
