We must realize that God is against us when we are sinning; yet we dare trust that His gracious love reaches to us across the chasm which separates us from Him. When we understand His loving attitude and accept His Grace, He releases His love in us. By that love we are able to begin to keep His commands for us -- to love Him with heart, mind, soul and strength, and to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There were so many variables to look at and consider, hauling and such.

What can and must be said and resaid, with all gratitude for what in many places is already happening, is that a fearless scrutiny and revision of structure is one of the most urgent aspects of a renewal of the Church.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6670</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Things sweet to taste prove in digestion sour. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13276]]></link><description><![CDATA[Things sweet to taste prove in digestion sour.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Matthias the Apostle   I shall not value his prayers at all, be he never so earnest ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Matthias the Apostle   I shall not value his prayers at all, be he never so earnest and frequent in them, who gives not alms according to his ability.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7329</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men are children, and of one family.

I would wish that all women -- girls even -- would read the Gospels and the letters of Paul. I wish that they were translated into all languages of all people. To make them understood is surely the first step. It may be that they might be ridiculed by many, but some would take them to heart. I long that the husbandman should sing portions of them to himself as he follows the plough, that the weaver should hum them to the tune of his shuttle, that the traveller should beguile with their stories the tedium of his journey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Willibrord of York, Archbishop of Utrecht, Apostle of Frisia, 739  We ought indeed to expect to find ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6420]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Willibrord of York, Archbishop of Utrecht, Apostle of Frisia, 739  We ought indeed to expect to find the works of God in such things as the advance of knowledge. Knowledge of the physical universe is not to be thought of as irrelevant to Christian faith [simply] because it does not lead to saving knowledge of God. In so far as it is concerned with God's creation, physical science is a fitting study for God's children. Moreover, the advance of scientific knowledge does negatively correct and enlarge theological notions--at the least, the geologists and astrophysicists have helped us to rid ourselves of parochial notions of God, and filled in some of the meaning of such phrases as "almighty".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are going to throw a club, it is important to throw it ahead of you, down the fairway, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57446]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are going to throw a club, it is important to throw it ahead of you, down the fairway, so you don't have to waste energy going back to pick it up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/57446</guid></item></channel></rss>
