George MacDonald Quotes

He Would Dream Waking Dreams About Jesus, Gloriously Childlike. He Fancied He Came Down Every Now And Then To See How Things Were Going In The Lower Part Of His Kingdom; And That When He Did So, He Made Use Of Glashgar And Its Rocks For His Stair, Coming Down Its Granite Scale In The Morning, And Again, When He Had Ended His Visit, Going Up In The Evening By The Same Steps. Then High And Fast Would His Heart Beat At The Thought That Some Day He Might Come Upon His Path Just When He Had Passed, See The Heather Lifting Its Head From The Trail Of His Garment, Or More Slowly Out Of The Prints Left By His Feet, As He Walked Up The Stairs Of Heaven, Going Back To His Father. Sometimes, When A Sheep Stopped Feeding And Looked Up Suddenly, He Would Fancy That Jesus Had Laid His Hand On Its Head, And Was Now Telling It That It Must Not Mind Being Killed; For He Had Been Killed, And It Was All Right.
