In that sense God is not omnipotent: He is limited by His own nature, by His perfect goodness and mercy; for the omnipotence of God means nothing apart from His Fatherly love. In particular, this limitation of the power of God is to be found in the measure of freedom which, as His children, we enjoy. God shares His power with us so that, for a time at least, if we so determine, we can break His laws and frustrate His plans, but also so that we can give to Him, if we choose, the free allegiance of our hearts and minds, and become children at His Family Table, drawn together by the compulsion of His love, and not the exercise of His might.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm not going to get involved in the contractual details.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43237</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60025]]></link><description><![CDATA[Knowledge is an unending adventure at the edge of uncertainty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60025</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're certainly not celebrating her.

We shrink from the consequences of truth. We look round and cling dependently. We ask what men will think; what others will say; whether they will not stare in astonishment. Perhaps they will; but he who is calculating that, will accomplish nothing in this life. The Father -- the Father which is with us and in us -- what does He think? God's work cannot be done without a spirit of independence. A man is got some way in the Christian life when he has learned to say, humbly yet majestically, "I dare to be alone.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6434</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While a lot of African Americans and Latinos may have negative perceptions about the military, they can still identify with ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39206]]></link><description><![CDATA[While a lot of African Americans and Latinos may have negative perceptions about the military, they can still identify with the strength of the soldier.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39206</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The bird loves her nest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49804]]></link><description><![CDATA[The bird loves her nest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49804</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that fights and runs away will live to fight another day. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51978]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that fights and runs away will live to fight another day.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[These guys are going to be the first people that play in the Wells Fargo Arena in a game that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32790]]></link><description><![CDATA[These guys are going to be the first people that play in the Wells Fargo Arena in a game that matters.
