The Diary of an Old Soul

Daily Readings by George MacDonald (1824 - 1905)

I search my heart—I search, and find no faith.

Hidden He may be in its many folds—

I see him not revealed in all the world

No good seems likely. To and fro I am hurled.

I have no stay. Only obedience holds:—

I haste, I rise, I do the thing he saith.
