The man whose prayer is so pure that he never asks God for anything does not know who God is, and does not know who he is himself: for he does not know his own need of God. All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on the Lord of life and death. It is, therefore, a deep and vital contact with Him whom we know not only as Lord but as Father. It is when we pray truly that we really are. Our being is brought to a high perfection by this.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66012]]></link><description><![CDATA[The first time someone shows you who they are, believe them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the days of His earthly ministry, only those could speak to him who came where He was: if He ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7588]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the days of His earthly ministry, only those could speak to him who came where He was: if He was in Galilee, men could not find Him in Jerusalem; if He was in Jerusalem, men could not find Him in Galilee. His Ascension means that He is perfectly united with God; we are with Him wherever we are present to God; and that is everywhere and always. Because He is "in Heaven" He is everywhere on earth: because He is ascended, He is here now. Our devotion is not to hold us by the empty tomb; it must lift up our hearts to heaven so that we too "in heart and mind thither ascend and with Him continually dwell": it must also send us forth into the world to do His will; and these are not two things, but one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As society advances the standard of poverty rises. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47895]]></link><description><![CDATA[As society advances the standard of poverty rises.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It wouldn't be unusual to tear it all down.

The shortest possible description of a Christian -- a description with which the New Testament would fully agree -- is that a Christian is a person who can say: "For me Jesus Christ is Lord." Herbert Butterfield's words about facing the future are good: "Hold to Christ, and for the rest be totally uncommitted." Any alleged conversion which does not leave one totally committed solely to Jesus Christ is incomplete and imperfect.
