The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

June 20

But now the Spirit and I are one in this—

My hunger now is after righteousness;

My spirit hopes in God to set me free

From the low self loathed of the higher me.

Great elder brother of my second birth,

Dear o'er all names but one, in heaven or earth,

Teach me all day to love eternally.
