The man whose prayer is so pure that he never asks God for anything does not know who God is, and does not know who he is himself: for he does not know his own need of God. All true prayer somehow confesses our absolute dependence on the Lord of life and death. It is, therefore, a deep and vital contact with Him whom we know not only as Lord but as Father. It is when we pray truly that we really are. Our being is brought to a high perfection by this.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Truth may sometimes hurt but delusion harms. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11850]]></link><description><![CDATA[Truth may sometimes hurt but delusion harms.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I said to the brown, brown thrush: "Hush, hush!  Through the wood's full strains I hear   Thy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59254]]></link><description><![CDATA[I said to the brown, brown thrush: "Hush, hush!  Through the wood's full strains I hear   Thy monotone deep and clear,    Like a sound amid sounds most fine."]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59254</guid></item></channel></rss>
