[Continued tomorrow]  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 5, 1998  And let us be grateful beyond words for this: that God will not let us alone until we have learnt it and stand by His side. He troubles us, He brings His disturbing light back and back to us, showing us how coarse and heavy the dying self, seeking her own, is; how horrible it is that any feeling of unforgiveness, accepted and held on to, towards our brother, drives God from our side; how quickly we must do all we can to heal the separation, because we are out in the cold and the dark indeed, if divorced from that Love.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 6, 1998  Commemoration of Martyrs of Japan, 1597  Prayer is the expression of a good desire. The human heart is full of restless desires, and the prayers of men consist for the most part of the unsifted petitions which are urged by their varying passions. To desire what is right, and to desire it consistently, and passionately, is the first condition of true living; the desires can be corrected only by truth, the mind must apprehend God, and then it will say, "There is none upon earth that I desire beside Thee.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Up men to your posts!
