On Meeting Aslan

Today, I would like to share my reflections upon meeting Aslan for the first time. Please understand, the majesty of it surely cannot be communicated in mere words. He is indescribable. But, I am going to try my best.

Upon hearing the name Aslan for the first time, as you may well remember for yourself, a certain feeling of awe, expectation, and happiness rushes over you. Well, imagine that magnified a million times over at actually seeing him! The joy of a child on Christmas morning, or a bride on her wedding day (I'm assuming, since I've never experienced this): these are mere slivers of reflection of the love and joy Aslan himself offers.

When I saw him for the first time, at the Stone Table, with Peter and Susan (Edmund, regrettably, was not with us), I thought my soul would burst from my body for pure joy! What power, and majesty!

I truly hope, one day, each of you can experience this joy for yourself!
