The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

May 22

All times are thine whose will is our remede.

Man turns to thee, thou hast not turned away;

The look he casts, thy labour that did breed—

It is thy work, thy business all the day:

That look, not foregone fitness, thou dost heed.

For duty absolute how be fitter than now?

Or learn by shunning?—Lord, I come; help thou.
