The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn March 16, 2000 Continuing a Lenten series on prayer:  I have called my material surroundings a stage set. In this I can act. And you may well say "act". For what I call "myself" (for all practical, everyday purposes) is also a dramatic construction; memories, glimpses in the shavinglass, and snatches of the very fallible activity called "introspection", are the principal ingredients. Normally I call this construction "me"' and the stage set "the real world". Now the moment of prayer is for me -- or involves for me as its condition -- the awareness, the reawakened awareness, that this "real world" and "real self" are very far from being rock-bottom realities. I cannot, in the flesh, leave the stage, either to go behind the scenes or to take my seat in the pit; but I can remember that these regions exist. And I also remember that my apparent self -- this clown or hero or super -- under his grease-paint is a real person with an off-stage life. The dramatic person could not tread the stage unless he concealed a real person: unless the real and unknown I existed, I would not even make mistakes about the imagined me. And in prayer this real I struggles to speak, for once, from his real being, and to address, for once, not the other actors, but -- what shall I call Him? The Author, for He invented us all? The Producer, for He controls all? Or the Audience, for He watches, and will judge, the performance?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8496</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance of God's prophetic outline, failure to know God's program for the Church, the nations, and Israel, is the cause ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14501]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance of God's prophetic outline, failure to know God's program for the Church, the nations, and Israel, is the cause of the overwhelming amount of error and misunderstanding of the events of the future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you get rid of the volatility factor the stock option expense creates, the earnings growth was actually very good. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38454]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you get rid of the volatility factor the stock option expense creates, the earnings growth was actually very good.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art thou a pen, whose task shall be To drown in ink  What writers think?   Oh, wisely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46011]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art thou a pen, whose task shall be To drown in ink  What writers think?   Oh, wisely write,    That pages white     Be not the worse for ink and thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46011</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The last four games we had great practices.
