“To be loved by God, not merely pitied, but delighted in as an artist delights in
his work or a father in a son— it seems impossible, a weight or burden of glory 
which our thoughts can hardly sustain. But so it is.”

in _[The Weight of Glory and Other Addresses](https://www.amazon.com/dp/0060653205?tag=toletaupanre-20)_(
