If our practical life is centered on our own interests, cluttered up by possessions, distracted by ambitions, passions, wants and worries, beset by a sense of our own rights and importance, or anxieties for our own future, or longings for our own success, we need not expect that our spiritual life will be a contrast to all this. The soul's house is not built on such a convenient plan; there are few soundproof partitions in it. Only when the conviction -- not merely the idea -- that the demand of the Spirit, however inconvenient, rules the whole of it, will those objectionable noises die down which have a way of penetrating into the nicely furnished little oratory and drowning all the quieter voices by their din.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no truth sure enough to justify persecution. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57032]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no truth sure enough to justify persecution.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57032</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There was also an outage from Stella Road west to the county line, those folks were out, too. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32819]]></link><description><![CDATA[There was also an outage from Stella Road west to the county line, those folks were out, too.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32819</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's just a great place to be a part of.
