Righteousness comes back when man by faith is brought to walk with God again, and to give Him His true place by acting or being acted upon in all things according to His will. Anything, therefore, not of faith is sin. And all such sin is bondage. Self-will is bondage, for self-will or independence of God means dependence on a creature; and we cannot be dependent on a creature, be it what it may, without (more or less) becoming subject to it. What has not been given up for money, or for some creature's love? But who has ever thus served the creature more than the Creator without waking at last to feel he is a bondman? I say nothing of the worse bondage which comes from our self-will, in the indulgence of our own thoughts, or passions, or affections. Even the very energies of faith, while, as yet unchastened, it acts from self, ... may only bring forth more bondage... Who but God can set men free? And He sets them free as they walk with Him. All independence of Him is darkness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who gossips with you will gossip of you ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17874]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who gossips with you will gossip of you]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A break up is like a broken mirror.

We can obtain all of the material possessions we desire quite easily, however, attempting to change our deepest thoughts and learning to love ourselves is a monumental challenge. We may achieve success in our business lives but it never quite means as much if we do not feel good inside. Once we feel good about ourselves inside we can genuinely lend ourselves to others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger is seldom without an argument but seldom with a good one. -Lord Halifax. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2595]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger is seldom without an argument but seldom with a good one. -Lord Halifax.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As long as you follow the new procedural rules, it shouldn't hurt you that bad if the bankruptcy is really ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35018]]></link><description><![CDATA[As long as you follow the new procedural rules, it shouldn't hurt you that bad if the bankruptcy is really warranted,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35018</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whence are thy beams, O sun! thy everlasting light?

Care gives latitude to another person and gets you past the dislikes and annoyances. Quite simply, caring sustains love. Doc Childre and Sara Paddison, HeartMath Discovery Program Are there certain friends you turn to when you have a problem or need to be listened to? Think about this: - Are they compassionate, understanding and nurturing? - Are they totally present, giving you their undivided attention? - Do they try to solve your problems for you or do they help you to get clarity so that you can solve your own problems? - Do they let you talk until you're done? Chances are the people you turn to for support and understanding are good listeners. You can develop these qualities as well and take them even deeper into "essence understanding" through mastering deep heart listening. James Allen In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, for in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. Frances Ward Weller -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16929</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The closest distance between two people is a goodlaugh. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22729]]></link><description><![CDATA[The closest distance between two people is a goodlaugh.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22729</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I love Dennis.

Make me truly thankful for that portion of health which Thy mercy has restored, and enable me to use the remains of life to Thy glory and my own salvation. Take not from me, O Lord, Thy Holy Spirit. Extinguish in my mind all sinful and inordinate desires. Let me resolve to do that which is right, and let me by Thy help keep my resolutions. Let me, if it is best for me, at last know peace and comfort, but whatever state of life Thou shalt appoint me, let me end it by a happy death, and enjoy eternal happiness in Thy presence, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord.
