Like ships storm-driven into port, like starving souls that seek the bread they once despised, like wanderers begging refuge from the whelming night, like prodigals that seek the father's home when all is spent;  yet welcomed at the open door, arms outstretched and kisses for our shame;  so is our coming unto Thee, 0 God. Like flowers uplifted to the sun, like trees that bend before the storm, like sleeping seas that mirror cloudless skies, like a harp to the hand, like an echo to a cry, like a song to the heart;  for all our stubbornness, our failure, and our sin:  so would we have been to Thee, O God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6451</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I can confirm that four people are dead, our team has seen their bodies, but there could be many more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34833]]></link><description><![CDATA[I can confirm that four people are dead, our team has seen their bodies, but there could be many more dead.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34833</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It actually took me a year to learn how to play running back - to understand what they were doing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41476]]></link><description><![CDATA[It actually took me a year to learn how to play running back - to understand what they were doing defensively and then what our guys were doing every single play.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62567]]></link><description><![CDATA[As I approve of a youth that has something of the old man in him, so I am no less pleased with an old man that has something of the youth.

The gates have been opened to evil in part because of a terrible discrepancy between human ideals and actual possibilities -- terrible heresies concerning the nature of man and the structure of the historical universe. Christianity, even if it cannot persuade men to rise to the contemplation of the spiritual things, embodies principles which may at least have the effect of bringing the dreamers down to earth. Because it confronts the problem of human sin, it can face our difficulties and dilemmas without evasions -- without the fundamental evasiveness of those who believe that all would be well with the world if it were not for a few unspeakable criminals, always conveniently identified with the political enemy of the moment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6630</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we are afraid we ought not to occupy ourselves with endeavoring to prove that there is no danger, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11052]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we are afraid we ought not to occupy ourselves with endeavoring to prove that there is no danger, but in strengthening ourselves to go on in spite of the danger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11052</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66378]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: 'If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?'
