He does not hesitate to use all that is good and beautiful and true, partly because he knows that his God gives him "richly all things to enjoy", and partly because he knows that in all life's impermanent beauties and pleasures, there is the promise of the real and permanent which he is thoroughly convinced will exceed his wildest expectations.

And when one does this, or is ready to do this, prayer even for "us" seems too selfish -- and it is unnecessary, for we then possess all that God Himself can give us. The easy renunciation of self for the Beloved becomes the very breath of life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7803</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our food service director has testified at state and federal hearings concerning food service nutrition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38682]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our food service director has testified at state and federal hearings concerning food service nutrition.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38682</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Congress acknowledged that society's accumulated myths and fears about disability and disease are as handicapping as are the physical limitations ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Congress acknowledged that society's accumulated myths and fears about disability and disease are as handicapping as are the physical limitations that flow from actual impairment.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The setting sun, and music at the close, As the last taste of sweets, is sweetest last,  Writ in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58339]]></link><description><![CDATA[The setting sun, and music at the close, As the last taste of sweets, is sweetest last,  Writ in remembrance more than things long past.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58339</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23400]]></link><description><![CDATA[The sun does not shine for a few trees and flowers, but for the wide world's joy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23400</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That is what we are supposed to do when we are at our best - make it all up - ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65889]]></link><description><![CDATA[That is what we are supposed to do when we are at our best - make it all up - but make it up so truly that later it will happen that way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The prosperous man is never sure that he is loved for himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48502]]></link><description><![CDATA[The prosperous man is never sure that he is loved for himself.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48502</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66889]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66889</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I dote on his very absence. -The Merchant of Venice.
