We must realize that God is against us when we are sinning; yet we dare trust that His gracious love reaches to us across the chasm which separates us from Him. When we understand His loving attitude and accept His Grace, He releases His love in us. By that love we are able to begin to keep His commands for us -- to love Him with heart, mind, soul and strength, and to love our neighbors as we love ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6769</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Income and sales taxes are both collected in dribs and drabs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30168]]></link><description><![CDATA[Income and sales taxes are both collected in dribs and drabs.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30168</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Work thou for pleasure--paint or sing or carve The thing thou lovest, though the body starve--  Who works for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62095]]></link><description><![CDATA[Work thou for pleasure--paint or sing or carve The thing thou lovest, though the body starve--  Who works for glory misses oft the goal;   Who works for money coins his very soul.    Work for the work's sake, then, and it may be     That these things shall be added unto thee.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62095</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What's the good of it? for whose advantage? [Lat., Cui bono?] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17850]]></link><description><![CDATA[What's the good of it? for whose advantage? [Lat., Cui bono?]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17850</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We were able to visualize single nuclear pore complexes.
