The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from God The Invisible King by H. G. Wells: individuality. It may be true that a few men and more women do
achieve the completest unselfishness and self-abandonment in earthly
love. So the poets and romancers tell us. If so, it is that by an
imaginative perversion they have given to some attractive person a
worship that should be reserved for God and a devotion that is
normally evoked only by little children in their mother's heart. It
is not the way between most of the men and women one meets in this
world.
But between God and the believer there is no other way, there is
nothing else, but self-surrender and the ending of self.
