“God is not waiting for you to get physically healthy or spiritually mature before he starts loving you or enjoying you.

But supposing that by casting all these things into an imaginary world, stripping them of their stained-glass and Sunday School associations, one could make them for the first time appear in their real potency? Could one not thus steal past those watchful dragons? I thought one could.”
C.S. Lewis

Abraham Lincoln
