Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now, infidel, I have you on the hip! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51418]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now, infidel, I have you on the hip!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51418</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Step after step the ladder is ascended. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49769]]></link><description><![CDATA[Step after step the ladder is ascended.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a glorious thing to be indifferent to suffering, but only to one's own suffering. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58219]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a glorious thing to be indifferent to suffering, but only to one's own suffering.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thoughts have power; thoughts are energy.

Do they not set forth the covenant of grace? The doctrine of justification by faith -- does not Paul in his Epistle to the Romans prove it from Genesis and from the Psalms? Where is the doctrine of substitution and the vicarious sufferings of the messiah set forth more clearly than in Leviticus and in the 53rd of Isaiah? The term "Old Testament" leads people to fancy it is an antiquated book; whereas, in many respects, it is newer than the New Testament, referring more fully to the age of glory and blessedness on the earth which is still before us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7044</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sublime Philosophy! Thou art the patriarch's ladder, reaching heaven;  And bright with beckoning angels--but alas!   We see ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sublime Philosophy! Thou art the patriarch's ladder, reaching heaven;  And bright with beckoning angels--but alas!   We see thee like the patriarch, but in dreams,    By the first step,--dull slumbering on the earth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every day silence harvests its victims.
