When the soul has sincerely given itself up to God, He fills it with His own peace, a peace which makes all earthly things indifferent -- as before His Presence, absorbing the heart. It is our strength, our comfort, our guide, the deeper and more confirmed it becomes, the greater our spiritual perfection; so that in truth to obtain and preserve this peace is the real secret of the interior life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The desire of the moth for the star, Of the night for the morrow,  The devotion to something afar ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11964]]></link><description><![CDATA[The desire of the moth for the star, Of the night for the morrow,  The devotion to something afar   From the sphere of our sorrow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11964</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every week here is a new challenge.

And it would be nice to accept your view that this just shows we are made to live by charity. I'm afraid, however, I detect two much less attractive reasons for the ease of my own intercessory prayers. One is that I am often, I believe, praying for others when I should be doing things for them. It's so much easier to pray for a bore than to go and see him. And the other is like unto it. Suppose I pray that you may be given grace to withstand your besetting sin (short list of candidates for this post will be forwarded on demand). Well, all the work has to be done by God and you. If I pray against my own besetting sin there will be work for me. One sometimes fights shy of admitting an act to be a sin for this very reason.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8536</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We breathe, we think, we conceive of our lives as narratives. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25237]]></link><description><![CDATA[We breathe, we think, we conceive of our lives as narratives.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Modesty is my best quality ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Modesty is my best quality]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever is, is in its causes just. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51923]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever is, is in its causes just.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51923</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A sympathetic heart is like a spring of pure water bursting forth from the mountain side. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58534]]></link><description><![CDATA[A sympathetic heart is like a spring of pure water bursting forth from the mountain side.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58534</guid></item></channel></rss>
