Daily Lectio Divina: Thy fishes breathe but where thy waters roll

Repost of Episode 786

In this episode, we’re continuing our series using selections from the poetry of George MacDonald. Today we’re reading January stanza 5 from “The Diary of an Old Soul.”

Thy fishes breathe but where thy waters roll;
Thy birds fly but within thy airy sea;
My soul breathes only in thy infinite soul;
I breathe, I think, I love, I live but thee.
Oh breathe, oh think,–O Love, live into me;
Unworthy is my life till all divine,
Till thou see in me only what is thine.
