Thou, O my Jesus, Thou didst me upon the Cross embrace; For me didst nails and spear endure, and manifold disgrace. Why, then why, O blessed Jesus Christ, should I not love Thee well? Not for the hope of winning heaven, or of escaping hell--  Not with the hope of gaining aught, nor seeking a reward, But as Thyself hast loved me, O ever-loving Lord! E'en then I love Thee and will love, and in Thy praise will sing Solely because Thou art my God and my eternal King.   ... Anonymous Latin Hymn (Edward Caswall, translator)  January 29, 2001   No man desires anything so eagerly as God desires to bring men to the knowledge of Himself. God is always ready, but we are very unready. God is near us, but we are far from Him. God is within, and we are without. God is friendly -- we are estranged.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18901]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We never respect those who amuse us, however we may smile at their comic powers ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53987]]></link><description><![CDATA[We never respect those who amuse us, however we may smile at their comic powers]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53987</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48316]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making, it is simply because your goals are not clearly defined.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We will look at harvest levels after this dig, and there should be more digging opportunities in the coming months ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32511]]></link><description><![CDATA[We will look at harvest levels after this dig, and there should be more digging opportunities in the coming months on some beaches.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32511</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is the answer, but while you're waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty interesting questions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25647]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is the answer, but while you're waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty interesting questions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love is the only gold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63591]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love is the only gold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63591</guid></item></channel></rss>
