It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You may send poetry to the rich; to poor men give substantial presents ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41487]]></link><description><![CDATA[You may send poetry to the rich; to poor men give substantial presents]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41487</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Faith in the ability of a leader is of slight service unless it be united with faith in his justice. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53632]]></link><description><![CDATA[Faith in the ability of a leader is of slight service unless it be united with faith in his justice.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53632</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is kind of capping a string of fairly strong numbers, and I'm even going to have to boost my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42253]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is kind of capping a string of fairly strong numbers, and I'm even going to have to boost my estimate of fourth quarter GDP up closer to 3 percent.

God is merciful and kind; he bestows truth, as well as rain and sunshine, upon the just and the unjust. Christ is the "true light that enlightens every man". This bestowal should inspire feelings of joy, not resentment, in the heart of a Christian. Aristotle said many wise things about logic, Confucius many wise things about morals. When a Christian attacks general wisdom in the name of the gospel, the natural man will attack the gospel in the name of general wisdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6547</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The influence of a beautiful, helpful character is contagious, and may revolutionize a whole town. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60956]]></link><description><![CDATA[The influence of a beautiful, helpful character is contagious, and may revolutionize a whole town.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Critics?
