Good friend and fellow traveler, Heidi, pointed me towards C.S. Lewis' talk, "The Weight of Glory". Well worth the read.
The conclusion is well know, "Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbour is the holiest object presented to your senses."
I found reading the whole sermon produced a sense of déjà vu. As if what I was living now had already been spoken about. Lewis preached the sermon in 1942.
My surprise of yesterday echoes something I long for, God's smile. That will be our glory.
Thanks Heidi.
You're welcome - wasn't it incredible? I too felt like he could have spoke that in the middle of any convention or church and it would have been as relevant for today as it was 65 years ago - standing the test of time!
