Overview
"Be thou the well by which I lie and rest; Be thou my tree of life, my garden ground; Be thou my home, my fire, my chamber blest, My book of wisdom, loved of all the best; Oh, be my friend, each day still newer found, As the eternal days and nights go round! Nay, nay—thou art my God, in whom all loves are bound!"In 1880, the prolific author George MacDonald self-published a long poem in book form as a gift for his friends. He called it, in full, A Book of Strife in the Form of the Diary of an Old Soul. It contained a new seven-line stanza for each day of the calendar year, written as prayers expressing MacDonalds longings, struggles, and joys in everyday life.The Diary was originally printed with a blank page facing every page of poetry so that readers could supplement MacDonalds diary with their own. This feature in particular, along with the spiritual wisdom and literary artistry of the text itself, was beloved by C. S. Lewis, who gave a copy of the book to his future wife, Joy Davidman, as a Christmas gift in 1952.Now in this deluxe edition, MacDonalds classic devotional resource is again available with the blank pages he envisioned alongside the complete text. With a new introduction and explanatory notes by historian Timothy Larsen, the beloved writers prayers find new life for enthusiasts and first-time readers alike. Complete text of MacDonalds classic work—one poem for each day of the year Thoughtful layout with a blank page for journaling opposite each poem Introduction and annotations by historian Timothy Larsen Deluxe features including cloth binding and bookmark ribbon
