It is God. We have mistaken the nature of poverty, and thought it was economic poverty. No, it is poverty of soul, deprivation of God's recreating, loving peace. Peer into poverty and see if we are really getting down to the deepest needs, in our economic salvation schemes. These are important. But they lie farther along the road, secondary steps toward world reconstruction. The primary step is a holy life, transformed and radiant in the glory of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7782</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Genuine outrage is not just a permissible reaction to the hard-pressed Christian; God himself feels it, and so should the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7014]]></link><description><![CDATA[Genuine outrage is not just a permissible reaction to the hard-pressed Christian; God himself feels it, and so should the Christian in the presence of pain, cruelty, violence, and injustice.

Here lies the ground of the great efficacy of prayer, which when it is the prayer of the heart, the prayer of faith, has a kindling and creating power, and forms and transforms the soul into everything that the desire reaches after: it has the key to the Kingdom of Heaven and unlocks all its treasures; it opens, extends and moves that in us which has its being and motion in and with the divine nature. and so it brings us into real union and Communion with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I went on a diet, swore off drinking and heavy eating, and in fourteen days I lost two weeks ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12209]]></link><description><![CDATA[I went on a diet, swore off drinking and heavy eating, and in fourteen days I lost two weeks]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They sing, they will pay. [Fr., Ils chantent, ils payeront.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56461]]></link><description><![CDATA[They sing, they will pay. [Fr., Ils chantent, ils payeront.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58713]]></link><description><![CDATA[A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58713</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I believe that everything you do bad comes back to you.

This is not a specially religious mistake. We think of supernaturalism when faith is mentioned, but the naturalistic description of the world also operates on assumptions that require a faith as robust as does the most soaring mysticism. The usual efforts to skirt faith beg all the questions there are. A psychiatrist, for instance, who points out to you that you believe in God the Father because you need a father, or that you became a missionary to expiate your guilt feelings, may be quite correct, but he has not touched on the prior question as to whether there is, in fact, a cosmic father figure who is the archetype of all other fathers, or whether there is an evangel worth spending your life promulgating.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By learning you will teach, by teaching you will learn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24547]]></link><description><![CDATA[By learning you will teach, by teaching you will learn.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who know how to think need no teachers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58714]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who know how to think need no teachers.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58714</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.

But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43377</guid></item></channel></rss>
