To be grasped, God's will must be met with a readiness to obey.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Set your target and keep trying until you reach it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63243]]></link><description><![CDATA[Set your target and keep trying until you reach it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63243</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A host in himself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19870]]></link><description><![CDATA[A host in himself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accept the challenges so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accept the challenges so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's capable of amazing feats. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29743]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's capable of amazing feats.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reproof on her lip, but a smile in her eye. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56680]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reproof on her lip, but a smile in her eye.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You've got to sing like you don't need the money, love like you'll never get hurt.

For that life is won only from death and the good only from the evil is a piece of thoroughly worldly knowledge which is not strange to the Christian. But all this has nothing to do with the temptation of which Christ speaks. It simply does not touch the reality which is meant here. The temptation of which the whole Bible speaks does not have to do with the testing of my strength, for it is of the very essence of temptation in the Bible that all my strength -- to my horror, and without my being able to do anything about it -- is turned against me; really all my powers, including my good and pious powers (the strength of my faith), fall into the hands of the enemy power and are now led into the field against me. Before there can be any testing of my powers, I have been robbed of them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For a small reward, a man will hurry away on a long journey; while for eternal life, many will hardly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7463]]></link><description><![CDATA[For a small reward, a man will hurry away on a long journey; while for eternal life, many will hardly take a single step.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7463</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: THE ELEMENTS OF PRAYER   Its ground: God, by whose goodness it springeth ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6198]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continuing a Lenten series on prayer: THE ELEMENTS OF PRAYER   Its ground: God, by whose goodness it springeth in us.
