A quarter of an hour of this prayer, brings you out of your closet a new man; your heart feels the good of it; and every return of such a prayer, gives new life and growth to all your virtues, with more certainty, than the dew refreshes the herbs of the field: whereas, overlooking this true prayer of your own heart, and only at certain times taking a prayer that you find in a book, you have nothing to wonder at, if you are every day praying, and yet every day sinking further and further under all your infirmities. [Continued tomorrow].]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll be more specific. ...This year the show will lose $16 million for The WB, and that's with a license ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35284]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll be more specific. ...This year the show will lose $16 million for The WB, and that's with a license fee reduction from last year.
