Our lot is greater than ourselves, and gives to our souls...

Martineau

Our lot is greater than ourselves, and gives to our souls a worth they not else have dared to claim. Hence, the humbleness there always is in Christian dignity. The immortal lot infinitely transcends our poor deserts; how we are to grow into the proportions of so high a life, it is wonderful to think. And yet, though it be above us always,—nay, even because it is above us,—there is something in it true and answering to our nature still; so that, having once lived with it, we are only half ourselves—and that the meaner half—without it.—Martineau.
