We must realize that God is against us when we are sinning; yet we dare trust that His gracious love reaches to us across the chasm which separates us from Him. When we understand His loving attitude and accept His Grace, He releases His love in us. By that love we are able to begin to keep His commands for us -- to love Him with heart, mind, soul and strength, and to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of All Saints  What changed these very ordinary men (who were such cowards that they did not dare ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7844]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of All Saints  What changed these very ordinary men (who were such cowards that they did not dare stand too near the cross in case they got involved) into heroes who would stop at nothing?
