“And a great hand reached out of the dark and grasped mine for a moment, mightily and tenderly.
I said to myself, ‘The Veil between, though very dark, is very thin.’” -George MacDonald, Phantastes
What stunning imagery MacDonald uses to describe God’s tenderness towards us.
So often I see the veil as thick, impermeable, shrouding my sense of nearness to God.
