And we are ever saying, "That be far from Thee, Lord!" We are careful, in our unbelief, over the divine dignity, of which He is too grand to think. Better pleasing to God ... is the audacity of Job, who, rushing into His presence, and flinging the door of His presence-chamber to the wall, like a troubled -- it may be angry -- but yet faithful child, calls aloud in the ear of Him whose perfect Fatherhood he has yet to learn, "Am I a sea or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?"... The devotion of God to His creatures is perfect; He does not think about Himself, but about them; He wants nothing for Himself, but finds His blessedness in the outgoing of blessedness. Ah! it is a terrible -- shall it be a lonely glory, this? We will draw near with our human response, our abandonment of self in the faith of Jesus. He Lives Himself to us -- shall we not give ourselves to Him? Shall we not give ourselves to each other whom He loves?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The acknowledgment of our weakness is the first step toward repairing our loss. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25593]]></link><description><![CDATA[The acknowledgment of our weakness is the first step toward repairing our loss.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25593</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marvin\'s Motivational Moments actually started as something that was actually therapeutic for me.

There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It ain't often that a man's reputation outlasts his money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65120]]></link><description><![CDATA[It ain't often that a man's reputation outlasts his money.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65120</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why do grandparents and grandchildren get along so well?
