There is hope in the heart that chases the clouds away. Hope is a higher heart frequency and as you begin to reconnect with your heart, hope is waiting to show you new possibilities and arrest the downward spiral of grief and loneliness. It becomes a matter of how soon you want the sun to shine. Listening to the still, small voice in your heart will make hope into a reality. Sara Paddison, The Hidden Power of the Heart Hope is a higher heart frequency, and as you begin to re-connect with your heart, hope is waiting to show you new possibilities and arrest the downward spiral of grief and loneliness. Listening to the still small voice in your heart will make hope into a reality. Benjamin Franklin, preface, Poor Richard's Almanac, 1758 He that lives upon hope will die fasting. -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By that sin fell the angels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51360]]></link><description><![CDATA[By that sin fell the angels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51360</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not endorsing a site.

No, here was a sequence of great character and emancipated spirit, all attached to and explained by such a personality as the world never saw; and the central doctrine of the risen Christ squared with the rationality and the goodness of God... The wise said that God and the godlike could have no contact with suffering, but Jesus was no phantom feigning to be crucified; he truly suffered on the cross, he truly rose. Suffering is a language all can understand, and none can quite exhaust; and the suffering Christ, victorious over pain and death, meant for all who grasped his significance a new faith in God, a new freedom of mind in God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26303]]></link><description><![CDATA[I cried because I had no shoes, then I met a man who had no feet.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is a good rule to face difficulties at the time they arise and not allow them to increase unacknowledged. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12234]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is a good rule to face difficulties at the time they arise and not allow them to increase unacknowledged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12234</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All are presumed good, till they are found in a fault. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49095]]></link><description><![CDATA[All are presumed good, till they are found in a fault.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagine the Creator as a low comedian, and at once the world becomes explicable. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17720]]></link><description><![CDATA[Imagine the Creator as a low comedian, and at once the world becomes explicable.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Worry often gives a small thing a big shadow. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62250]]></link><description><![CDATA[Worry often gives a small thing a big shadow.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Gates is the ultimate programming machine.

He was willing to suffer and to be despised; do you dare to complain of anything? He had enemies and defamers; do you want everyone to be your friend, your benefactor? How can your patience be rewarded if no adversity tests it? How can you be a friend of Christ if you are not willing to suffer any hardship? Suffer with Christ and for Christ if you wish to reign with Him.  Had you but once entered into perfect communion with Jesus or tasted a little of His ardent love, you would care nothing at all for your own comfort or discomfort but would rejoice in the reproach you suffer; for love of Him makes a man despise himself.  ... Thomas à Kempis, Of the Imitation of Christ May 11, 2000 Concluding a series on the person of Jesus:  Jesus' good news, then, was that the Kingdom of God had come, and that he, Jesus, was its herald and expounder to men. More than that, in some special and mysterious was, he was the kingdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Exercise is the yuppie version of bulimia ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14477]]></link><description><![CDATA[Exercise is the yuppie version of bulimia]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I truly believe that before I retire from public office, I'll be voting for a woman for president. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61021]]></link><description><![CDATA[I truly believe that before I retire from public office, I'll be voting for a woman for president.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Secrecy is the badge of fraud. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Secrecy is the badge of fraud.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fight thou with shafts of silver, and o'ercome When no force else can get the masterdom. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50143]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fight thou with shafts of silver, and o'ercome When no force else can get the masterdom.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50143</guid></item></channel></rss>
