Go, then, to prayer, not that ye may enjoy spiritual delights, but that ye may be full or empty, just as it pleaseth God. This will preserve you in an evenness of spirit, either in desertion or in consolation, and will prevent your being surprised at dryness, or the apparent repulses of Him who is altogether Love. Constant prayer is to keep the heart always right towards God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The causes of events are ever more interresting than the events themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19390]]></link><description><![CDATA[The causes of events are ever more interresting than the events themselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19390</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is probably the best year of my career, and we are having a good year.
