I have seen a few quote out there from C.S. Lewis "Living in the Atomic Age" During Covid. Here is my favourite from that article. Hers is early defined as Nature.
"It is our business to live by our own law not by hers: to follow, in private or in public life, the law of love and temperance even when they seem to be suicidal, and not the law of competition and grab, even when they seem to be necessary to our survival. For it is part of our spiritual law never to put survival first: not even the survival of our species. We must resolutely train ourselves to feel that the survival of Man on this Earth, much more of our own nation or culture of class, is not worth having unless it can be had by honourable and merciful means. The sacrifice is not so great as it seems.
Nothing is more likely to destroy a species or a nation than a determination to survive at all costs. Those who care for something else more than civilization are the only people by whom civilization is at all likely to be preserved. Those who want Heaven must have served Earth best. Those who love Man less than God do most for Man."
God help us to love you first above all else
God help us to put others above ourself
God teach us to listen to you
God teach us to follow you
God help us when the going gets tough
