But this tension is not something that concerns the Church and the world as though they are things which exist outside us and apart from us, which we can consider and observe and discuss and have theories about. The tension between the Church and the world exists within us and is the very fiber of our being, and neither the one nor the other is superficial or trivial. For we are, all of us, of the earth, earthy; and we are also baptized members of Christ and His Church. It is precisely because we belong to two worlds that our lives consist in insecurity -- that we are, in fact, a drama, the final act of which, the judgement of reward or punishment, heaven or hell, is hidden from us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wife is essential to great longevity; she is the receptacle of half a man's cares, and two-thirds of his ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25518]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wife is essential to great longevity; she is the receptacle of half a man's cares, and two-thirds of his ill-humor]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We feel and know that we are eternal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20625]]></link><description><![CDATA[We feel and know that we are eternal.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20625</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Although I personally feel quite comfortable with the machines at this point, I know that many in our community want ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29668]]></link><description><![CDATA[Although I personally feel quite comfortable with the machines at this point, I know that many in our community want to have that added comfort of having that paper trail.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29668</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16074]]></link><description><![CDATA[The fishers also shall mourn, and all they that cast angle into the brooks shall lament, and they that spread nets upon the waters shall languish.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I remember I had to play with Nancy Lopez in my first game (foursome) and I didn't know if I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36409]]></link><description><![CDATA[I remember I had to play with Nancy Lopez in my first game (foursome) and I didn't know if I was going to ask her for autograph.
