The surest symbol of spiritual earnestness will be the checkbook, the affections, and the ego-drive surrendered to Him. A disciple must have discipline. He must not be afraid of being asked by God for some of the time, the money, and the pleasure he has been in the habit of calling his "own". This does not mean that there will not be time for the family, and time for some healthy diversion. But it does mean that we are never -- on vacation, or wherever we may be -- exempt from our primary commitment to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6572</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While many a glowworm in the shade Lights up her love torch. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17576]]></link><description><![CDATA[While many a glowworm in the shade Lights up her love torch.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17576</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Satellite-delivered HDTV is driving the business for many of our customers, ...

This is the best outward prayer book you can have, as it will turn you to an inward book, and spirit of prayer in your heart, which is a continual longing desire of the heart after God, his divine life, and Holy Spirit. When, for the sake of this inward prayer, you retire at any time of the day, never begin till you know and feel, why and wherefore you are going to pray; and let this why and wherefore, form and direct everything that comes from you, whether it be in thought or in word.
