([Dr. Arthur] Way's translation shows this.) One line in a song that comes in Romans 8 has been a great help to me. Way calls the song a "Hymn of Triumph to Jesus". This is the line: "How can He [the Father] but, in giving Him [Jesus], lavish on us all things -- all?" "Freely give" means to give lavishly. What do I need today? Strength? Peace? Patience? Heavenly joy? Industry? Good temper? Power to help others? Inward contentment? Courage? Whatever it be, my God will lavish it upon me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nature has neither kernel nor shell; she is everything at once ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43780]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nature has neither kernel nor shell; she is everything at once]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43780</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Of all the fools that pride can boast, A Coxcomb claims distinction most. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16422]]></link><description><![CDATA[Of all the fools that pride can boast, A Coxcomb claims distinction most.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16422</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more highminded a man is the more easily is his anger appeased. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50772]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more highminded a man is the more easily is his anger appeased.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50772</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Into each life some rain must fall, some days be dark and dreary. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Into each life some rain must fall, some days be dark and dreary.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reach for the moon, because if you don't make it you'll land among the stars. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43058]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reach for the moon, because if you don't make it you'll land among the stars.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43058</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only little people pay taxes. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15790]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only little people pay taxes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/15790</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Moderation is a virtue only in those who are thought to have an alternative. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42872]]></link><description><![CDATA[Moderation is a virtue only in those who are thought to have an alternative.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42872</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Great is the Tailor, but not the greatest. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58560]]></link><description><![CDATA[Great is the Tailor, but not the greatest.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Innocents  The whole being of any Christian is Faith and Love...
