"Aslan, Aslan. Dear Aslan," sobbed Lucy. "At last."
The great beast rolled over on his side so that Lucy fell,
half sitting and half lying between his front paws.
He bent forward and just touched her nose with his tongue.
His warm breath came all round her. She gazed up into the large wise face.
"Welcome child," he said.
"Aslan," said Lucy, "you're bigger."
"That is because you are older, little one," answered he.
"Not because you are?"
"I am not. But every year you grow, you will find me bigger."
C.S. Lewis, Prince Caspian
Yes, God. Let that be true of us this year. May we continue to find You bigger and deeper still.
