The Holy Spirit supports our helplessness. Left to ourselves we do not know what prayers to offer or how to offer them. But in those inarticulate groans which rise from the depth of our being, we recognize the voice of none other than the Holy Spirit. He makes intercession; and His intercession is sure to be answered. For God Who searches the inmost recesses of the heart can interpret His own Spirit's meaning. He knows that His own Will regulates Its petitions, and that they are offered for men dedicated to His service.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A long, long kiss, a kiss of youth, and love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23824]]></link><description><![CDATA[A long, long kiss, a kiss of youth, and love.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23824</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It appears that radiation and winds from the massive star triggered new stars to form. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40970]]></link><description><![CDATA[It appears that radiation and winds from the massive star triggered new stars to form.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40970</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A retentive memory is a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26979]]></link><description><![CDATA[A retentive memory is a good thing, but the ability to forget is the true token of greatness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tekel: Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23526]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tekel: Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23526</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most kids, once they see it once are hooked.

Its core was the conviction that, in thus extending the range of western liberal culture and developing its assumptions, they were in effect establishing on earth that which would grow into the kingdom of God. Some put it sharply but un-Biblically: "building the kingdom"; others, of a more secular turn of mind, echoed J. A. Symonds' hymn, "These Things Shall Be". That whole view exists today only as debris, for it has foundered on the rocks, not so much of human sin, as of the contradictions and complexities of the very western culture that was the substance of its belief.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet do I fear thy nature. It is too full o' th' milk of human kindness  To catch the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23763]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet do I fear thy nature. It is too full o' th' milk of human kindness  To catch the nearest way.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23763</guid></item></channel></rss>
