“The truth is this: He wants to make us in his own image … For God made our individuality as well as, and a greater marvel than, our dependence; made our “apartness” from himself, that freedom should bind us divinely dearer to himself, with a new and inscrutable marvel of love; for the Godhead is still at the root, is the making root of our individuality, and the freer the man, the stronger the bond that binds him to him who made his freedom.” (George MacDonald, Unspoken Sermons, “The Eloi.”)
