C.S. Lewis: "The Weight of Glory"

This weekend, Liz passed along to me one of C.S. Lewis' most legendary essays, "The Weight of Glory", published in the early 1940s. It epitomizes many of his characteristic ideas, and made for an interesting discussion.
You can download it here in pdf format.

When/if you read it, read the whole thing. There are several twists and turns throughout the piece.

See:
1 Kings 8:9-12
10 And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD, 11 so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud; for the glory of the LORD filled the house of the LORD.
NKJV
