"That must be something very terrible and awful. That certainly must rend and tear the life to which God comes. At least, it will separate it and make it unnatural and strange. God fills a bush with His glory and it burns. God enters into the great mountain, and it rocks with earthquake. When he comes to occupy a man, He must distort the humanity which He occupies into some inhuman shape." Instead of that, this new life into which God comes, seems to be the most quietly, naturally human life that was ever seen upon the earth. It glides into its place like sunlight. It seems to make it evident that God and man are essentially so near together, that the meeting of their natures in the life of a God-man is not strange. So always does Christ deal with His own nature, accepting His Divinity as you and I accept our humanity, and letting it shine out through the envelope with which it has most subtly and mysteriously mingled, as the soul is mingled with and shines out through the body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can manage a prose format as long as I keep closer to Laurence Sterne than to Henry James. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33134]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can manage a prose format as long as I keep closer to Laurence Sterne than to Henry James.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The royal kingcup bold Dares not don his coat of gold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5139]]></link><description><![CDATA[The royal kingcup bold Dares not don his coat of gold.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5139</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever you are, be a good one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64757]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever you are, be a good one.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64757</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A lot has been done but it's not necessarily high profile.

It is not enough for the Church to be engaged with the State in healing social ills, though this is important at times. But when the world can turn around and see a group of God's people exhibiting substantial healing in the area of human relationships in their present life, then the world will take notice. Each group of Christians is, as it were, a pilot plant, showing that something can be done in the present situation, if only we begin in the right way.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6233</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A gift blinds the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15978]]></link><description><![CDATA[A gift blinds the wise and perverts the words of the righteous.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fashion design isn't just art for art's sake.
