Just to say I’ve begun, a piece of verse that struck me this morning…after a poor Monday…
I would go near thee–but I cannot press
Into Thy presence–it helps not to presume.
Thy doors are deeds; the handles are their doing.
He whose day-life is obedient righteousness,
Who, after failure, or a poor success,
Rises up, stronger effort yet renewing–
He finds thee, Lord, at length, in his own common room.
–from Diary of An Old Soul, by George MacDonald
…more words coming…
