The source of religious preoccupation is in the self, or rather the rejection of the self. Dedication is the obverse side of self-rejection.

But we have infinitely more than this, for instead of dead relics, however "authentic" and well preserved, we have a living life-line, stretching unbroken to Christ Himself. We have all the comfort and security that comes from historic tradition, but instead of being given the sad nostalgia of looking at an object and saying, "Look, how wonderful! This is what He touched then," we are given an evergreen memorial [in communion] which says, "This is what He touches now.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7490</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are given one life, and the decision is our whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11635]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are given one life, and the decision is our whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind, or whether to act, and in acting, to live.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By low ambition and the thirst of praise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2317]]></link><description><![CDATA[By low ambition and the thirst of praise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The groves were God's first temple.
