Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.

No, it wasn't Johnnie. And certainly not Chesterton. That I remember! It was someone contemporary...

I dunno then. I mentioned about six months ago that I liked Gerhard Frost's The Color of the Night, a Job commentary, for possible use in Lenten devotions. I don't remember any Canadian connection there, though.

Selah,

Mmmmmaybe... But it seems to me that the person who wrote it was from Canada. Whoever was talking about him quoted a short passage.
