Ye saints, who toil below, Adore your heavenly King. And onward as ye go Some joyful anthem sing;  Take what he gives  And praise him still,  Through good or ill,  Who ever lives!  My soul, bear thou thy part, Triumph in God above: And with a well-tuned heart Sing thou the songs of love!  Let all thy days  Till life shall end,  Whate'er he send,  Be filled with praise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This autonomy of man, this attempt of the Ego to understand itself out of itself, is the lie concerning man ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6222]]></link><description><![CDATA[This autonomy of man, this attempt of the Ego to understand itself out of itself, is the lie concerning man which we call sin. The truth about man is that his ground is not in himself but in God -- that his essence is not in self sufficient reason but in the Word, in the challenge of God, in responsibility, not in self-sufficiency. The true being of man is realized when he bases himself upon God's Word. Faith is then not an impossibility or a salto mortale [mortal leap], but that which is truly natural; and the real salto mortale (a mortal leap indeed!) is just the assertion of autonomy, self-sufficiency, God-likeness. [It is] through this usurped independence [that] man separates himself from God, and at the same time isolates himself from his fellows. Individualism is the necessary consequence of rational autonomy, just as love is the necessary consequence of faith.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I slept and dreamt that life was joy.
