What would it be to taste at the fountain-head that stream of which even these lower reaches prove so intoxicating? Yet that, I believe, is what lies before us. As St. Augustine said, the rapture of the saved soul will "flow over" into the glorified body. In the light of our present specialized and depraved appetites, we cannot imagine this [torrent of pleasure], and I warn everyone most seriously not to try. But it must be mentioned, to drive out thoughts even more misleading--thoughts that what is saved is a mere ghost, or that the risen body lives in numb insensibility. The body is made for the Lord, and these dismal fancies are wide of the mark.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8508</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With willing hearts and skillful hands, the difficult we do at once; the impossible takes a bit longer ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56506]]></link><description><![CDATA[With willing hearts and skillful hands, the difficult we do at once; the impossible takes a bit longer]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56506</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names.
