Were they awe-stricken by creation? They beheld it confessing Christ as Lord. Did their minds tend to regard men as gods? The uniqueness of the Savior's works marked Him, alone of men, as Son of God. Were they drawn to evil spirits? They saw them driven out by the Lord, and learned that the Word of God alone was God and that the evil spirits were not gods at all. Were they inclined to hero-worship and the cult of the dead? Then the fact that the Savior had risen from the dead showed them how false these other deities were, and that the Word of the Father is the one true Lord, the Lord even of death. For this reason was He both born and manifested as Man, for this He died and rose, in order that, eclipsing by His works all other human deeds, He might recall man from all the paths of error to know the Father. As He says Himself, "I came to seek and to save that which was lost.".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8189</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2626]]></link><description><![CDATA[Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm looking forward to an interesting period.

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[Disease is the tax which the soul pays for the body, as the tenant pays house-rent for the use of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63874]]></link><description><![CDATA[Disease is the tax which the soul pays for the body, as the tenant pays house-rent for the use of the house.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mind can assert anything and pretend it has proved it.
