The same apostle advises us to pray when we are in trouble because thereby we should find consolation; yet we are so wretched that this heavenly employment is often a burden instead of a comfort to us. The lukewarmness of our prayers is the source of all our other infidelities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We cease loving ourselves if no one loves us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2151]]></link><description><![CDATA[We cease loving ourselves if no one loves us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is bullshit.
