Life in God is not an escape from this, but a way to gain full insight concerning it. It is not our depravity which forces a fictitious religious explanation upon us, but the experience of religious reality which forces the "Night Side" out into the light. It is when we stand in the righteous all-seeing light of love that we can dare to look at, admit, and consciously suffer under this something in us which wills disaster, misfortune, defeat to everything outside the sphere of our narrowest self interest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For I would rather be a servant in the House of the Lord than to sit in the seats of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17693]]></link><description><![CDATA[For I would rather be a servant in the House of the Lord than to sit in the seats of the mighty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17693</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They eat the dainty food of gamous chefs with the same pleasure with which they devour gross peasant dishes, mostly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27933]]></link><description><![CDATA[They eat the dainty food of gamous chefs with the same pleasure with which they devour gross peasant dishes, mostly composed of garlic and tomatoes, or fisherman's octopus and shrimps, fried in heavily scented olive oil on a little deserted beach. - The Italians, 1964.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27933</guid></item></channel></rss>
