The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

June 9

Faith is the human shadow of thy might.

Thou art the one self-perfect life, and we

Who trust thy life, therein join on to thee,

Taking our part in self-creating light.

To trust is to step forward out of the night—

To be—to share in the outgoing Will

That lives and is, because outgoing still.
