“The mold in which a key is made would be a strange thing, if you had
never seen a key: and the key itself a strange thing if you had never
seen a lock. Your soul has a curious shape because it is a hollow made
to fit a particular swelling in the infinite contours of the divine
substance, or a key to unlock one of the doors in the house with many
mansions.
Your place in heaven will seem to be made for you and
you alone, because you were made for it -- made for it stitch by stitch
as a glove is made for a hand.”
-C.S. Lewis

...so I feel really stupid in saying this...but I forgot how much I enjoy reading the Bible...I mean not just pleasure reading...but for my soul...there is this...this...intimacy that goes beyond the pages, beyond the historical reality to the infinite nature of a holy and powerful God that is holy and loves us enough to not break that reality of himself.
