God Himself cannot make a creature to be in itself, or in its own nature, anything else but a state of emptiness. The highest life that is natural and creaturely can go no higher than this: it can only be a bare capacity for goodness and cannot possibly be a good and happy life but by the life of God dwelling in it and in union with it. And this is the two-fold life that, of all necessity, must be united in every good and happy and perfect creature.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7251</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let sleep itself be an exercise in piety, for such as our life and conduct have been, so also of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46599]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let sleep itself be an exercise in piety, for such as our life and conduct have been, so also of necessity will be our dreams.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46599</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make it simple.

Poor, timorous, faithless souls that we are! How we shall smile at our vain alarms, when the worst has happened! To us here, death is the most terrible word we know. But when we have tasted its reality, it will mean to us birth, deliverance, a new creation of ourselves. It will be what health is to the sick man. It will be what home is to the exile. It will be what the loved one given back is to the bereaved. As we draw near to it, a great solemn gladness should fill our hearts. It is God's great morning lighting up the sky.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[ItÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s risky in a marriage for a man to come home too late, but it can sometimes pose an even ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41434]]></link><description><![CDATA[ItÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â„Â¢s risky in a marriage for a man to come home too late, but it can sometimes pose an even greater risk if he comes home too early.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The beauty of our project is that we are taking something historical, something that has an emotional attachment to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29270]]></link><description><![CDATA[The beauty of our project is that we are taking something historical, something that has an emotional attachment to the community, and giving it rebirth.

But how to give Him a present to express our love is a bit of a problem. How can you give God anything when He owns everything? But does He? How about that power to choose, that precious free will that He has given to every living personality and which He so greatly respects? That is the only present we can give -- our selves, with all our powers of spirit, mind, and body, willingly, freely given because we love Him. That is the best and highest worship that you and I can offer, and I am sure that it is this above all that God most highly appreciates.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Necessity never made a good bargain ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44033]]></link><description><![CDATA[Necessity never made a good bargain]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44033</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's like a train wreck.
