The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

September 19

Yet more and more of me thou dost demand;

My faith and hope in God alone shall stand,

The life of law—not trust the rain and sun

To draw the golden harvest o'er the land.

I must not say—"This too will pass and die,"

"The wind will change," "Round will the seasons run."

Law is the body of will, of conscious harmony.
