filling-up hours enough

cutting sitting branches
There is a difficulty about disagreeing with God. He is the source from which all your reasoning power comes: you could not be right and he wrong any more than a stream can rise higher than its own source. When you are arguing against Him you are arguing against the very power that makes you able to argue at all: it is like cutting off the branch you are sitting on.
children school fiction
Children are not deceived by fairy-tales; they are often and gravely deceived by school-stories. Adults are not deceived by science-fiction ; they can be deceived by the stories in the women's magazines.
thinking law ideas
These, then, are the two points I wanted to make. First, that human beings, all over the earth, have this curious idea that they ought to behave in a certain way, and cannot really get rid of it. Secondly, that they do not in fact behave in that way. They know the Law of Nature; they break it. These two facts are the foundation of all clear thinking about ourselves and the universe we live in.

The first demand any work of art makes upon us is to surrender. Look. Listen. Receive. Get yourself out of the way.

Spying on people by magic is the same as spying on them in any other way.
enjoy glorify inviting
In commanding us to glorify Him, God is inviting us to enjoy Him.

The promise, made when I am in love, to be true to the beloved as long as I live, commits me to being true even if I cease to be in love.
