Fairy Tales and Universes


I read, "The Leap of Faith and Mother Kirk" by C.S. Lewis this morning, from his book "The Business of Heaven."  Very powerful.  God is held in our hearts and souls by our minds not our imaginations.  It is a willing ascension of ourselves, of all of ourselves, to the assured belief that there is a Profound Love that reigns in goodness over every cell and cosmos.  That Profound Love must have a Being, a specific Personhood, because that Love is not benevolence.  It is as far removed from that as apathy is.  No, The Profound Love is the meaning of Devine and allows all Fairy Tales to take root in our souls because our physicality is indeed, to dull to contain it.  For to be sure, this personal Fairy Tale of Christ, His Blood and our atonement, is more so reality than every waking moment our minds construct.
