Where it is possible that fear should exist it is well that it should exist, cause continual uneasiness, and be cast out by nothing less than love.... Until love, which is the truth towards God, is able to cast out fear, it is well that fear should hold; it is a bond, however poor, between that which is and that which creates -- a bond that must be broken, but a bond that can be broken only by the tightening of an infinitely closer bond. Verily God must be terrible to those that are far from Him: for they fear He will do -- yea, is doing -- with them what they do not, cannot desire, and can ill endure... While they are such as they are, there is much in Him that cannot but affright them: they ought, they do well, to fear Him... To remove that fear from their hearts, save by letting them know His love with its purifying fire, a love which for ages, it may be, they cannot know, would be to give them up utterly to the power of evil. Persuade men that fear is a vile thing, that it is an insult to God, that He will have none of it -- while they are yet in love with their own will, and slaves to every movement of passionate impulse -- and what will the consequence be? That they will insult God as a discarded idol, a superstition, a falsehood, as a thing under whose evil influence they have too long groaned, a thing to be cast out and spit upon. After that, how much will they learn of Him?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8084</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas Merton, Monk, Spiritual Writer, 1968   We must remember that our experience of union with God, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8337]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Thomas Merton, Monk, Spiritual Writer, 1968   We must remember that our experience of union with God, our feeling of His presence, is altogether accidental and secondary. It is only a side effect of His actual presence in our souls, and gives no sure indication of that presence in any case. For God Himself is above all apprehensions and ideas and sensations, however spiritual, that can ever be experienced by the spirit of man in this life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of James the Apostle  Our Christian experience must agree with the Bible.

Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them. -Ralph Waldo Emerson.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Debt is a prolific mother of folly and of crime. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11507]]></link><description><![CDATA[Debt is a prolific mother of folly and of crime.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11507</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There has been just enough activity on the big, new shiny aircraft front ... to keep both manufacturers feeling and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31733]]></link><description><![CDATA[There has been just enough activity on the big, new shiny aircraft front ... to keep both manufacturers feeling and talking very buoyantly about the future,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The biggest things are always the easiest to do because there is no competition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9235]]></link><description><![CDATA[The biggest things are always the easiest to do because there is no competition.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes a breakdown can be the beginning of a kind of breakthrough, a way of living in advance through a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54675]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes a breakdown can be the beginning of a kind of breakthrough, a way of living in advance through a trauma that prepares you for a future of radical transformation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/54675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The resistance of a woman to a man’s advances is not always a sign of virtue.
