The trouble with steeling yourself against the harshness of reality is that the same steel that secures your life against being destroyed secures your life also against being opened up and transformed by the holy power that life itself comes from. You can even prevail on your own.

The mystic soul may impatiently think so, but the moral soul finds such mediation the way to reality; and the mystic experience is not quite trustworthy about reality.

We do not know God by Christ but in Him. We find God when we find Christ; and in Christ alone we know and share his final purpose. Our last knowledge is not the contact of our person with a thing or a thought; it is intercourse of person and person.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6619</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even the richest soil, if left uncultivated will produce the rankest weeds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1215]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even the richest soil, if left uncultivated will produce the rankest weeds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist  He is the true Gospel-bearer that carries it in his hands, in his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8295]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist  He is the true Gospel-bearer that carries it in his hands, in his mouth, and in his heart...
