As Christ gives Himself to feed us, so we have to incarnate something of His all-loving, all-sacrificing soul. If we do not, then we have not really received Him. That is the plain truth. It has been said that there are many ways and degrees of receiving the Blessed Sacrament. It really depends on how wide we open our hearts. A spiritually selfish communion is not a communion at all.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7802</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How bravely Autumn paints upon the sky The gorgeous fame of Summer which is fled! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56513]]></link><description><![CDATA[How bravely Autumn paints upon the sky The gorgeous fame of Summer which is fled!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fate is what happens to you when your luck runs out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12085]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fate is what happens to you when your luck runs out.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12085</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is definitely not 'boys will be boys,' ...
