If our practical life is centered on our own interests, cluttered up by possessions, distracted by ambitions, passions, wants and worries, beset by a sense of our own rights and importance, or anxieties for our own future, or longings for our own success, we need not expect that our spiritual life will be a contrast to all this. The soul's house is not built on such a convenient plan; there are few soundproof partitions in it. Only when the conviction -- not merely the idea -- that the demand of the Spirit, however inconvenient, rules the whole of it, will those objectionable noises die down which have a way of penetrating into the nicely furnished little oratory and drowning all the quieter voices by their din.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But now, after that ye have known God, or rather or known of God, how turn ye again to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5631]]></link><description><![CDATA[But now, after that ye have known God, or rather or known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We see how flies, and spiders, and the like, get a sepulchre in amber, more durable than the monument and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16220]]></link><description><![CDATA[We see how flies, and spiders, and the like, get a sepulchre in amber, more durable than the monument and embalming of the body of any king.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I seem to boast more than is becoming, my excuse is that I brag for humanity rather than for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63583]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I seem to boast more than is becoming, my excuse is that I brag for humanity rather than for myself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Much that we call evil is really good in disguises; and we should not quarrel rashly with adversities not yet ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27332]]></link><description><![CDATA[Much that we call evil is really good in disguises; and we should not quarrel rashly with adversities not yet understood, nor overlook the mercies often bound up in them.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes the subconscious mind manifests a wisdom several steps or even years ahead of the conscious mind, and has its ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52221]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sometimes the subconscious mind manifests a wisdom several steps or even years ahead of the conscious mind, and has its own way of leading us toward our destiny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52221</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joe Maddock did a good job in the centre last week and he deserves to stay in the side. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30673]]></link><description><![CDATA[Joe Maddock did a good job in the centre last week and he deserves to stay in the side.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Priscian! a little scratched, 't will serve. -Love's Labour 's Lost.
