All have been adopted. The first-hand experience we had with these kitties is that they had been in cages for so long, we recommended the foster person to let them run and play.

Has it not been those who believed in you? Perhaps there may be few such left. The light of expectation may have died out of the most friendly and hopeful eyes; and you yourself may have lost heart. Ah! but there is still One whose faith in you has never wavered. And how wonderful it is that that one should be Jesus Christ!... It was a wonderful dream God dreamed, Christ says, when He created you; it was a stately being that was in His mind when you were fashioned; and I can make you all He meant that you should be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I play in the low 80s.

[Continued tomorrow]  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 5, 1998  And let us be grateful beyond words for this: that God will not let us alone until we have learnt it and stand by His side. He troubles us, He brings His disturbing light back and back to us, showing us how coarse and heavy the dying self, seeking her own, is; how horrible it is that any feeling of unforgiveness, accepted and held on to, towards our brother, drives God from our side; how quickly we must do all we can to heal the separation, because we are out in the cold and the dark indeed, if divorced from that Love.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn  February 6, 1998  Commemoration of Martyrs of Japan, 1597  Prayer is the expression of a good desire. The human heart is full of restless desires, and the prayers of men consist for the most part of the unsifted petitions which are urged by their varying passions. To desire what is right, and to desire it consistently, and passionately, is the first condition of true living; the desires can be corrected only by truth, the mind must apprehend God, and then it will say, "There is none upon earth that I desire beside Thee.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If it's true that men are such beasts, this must account for the fact that most women are animal lovers. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25979]]></link><description><![CDATA[If it's true that men are such beasts, this must account for the fact that most women are animal lovers.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that hath love in his brest, hath spurres in his sides. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49352]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that hath love in his brest, hath spurres in his sides.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49352</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In durance vile here must I wake and weep, And all my frowsy couch in sorrow steep. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48258]]></link><description><![CDATA[In durance vile here must I wake and weep, And all my frowsy couch in sorrow steep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45272]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fishes live in the sea, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45272</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing that exasperates people more than a display of superior ability or brilliance in conversation.

The more knowledge, the more obligation. The maintaining of revealed doctrine becomes blasphemy if it is not borne out by the corresponding testimony of the life. He who is always appealing to the Word of God without his life and conduct corresponding to this knowledge of God, dishonours God's name, making Him an object of mockery and hatred. It is just those who know so well how to talk about God who make His name hateful among men, because their lives darken the picture of God and turn it into a caricature. The Lord is judged by the life of His servants; this is the truer, the more zealously they appeal to Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6191</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tools we use have a profound (and devious!) influence on our thinking habits, and, therefore, on our thinking abilities. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9521]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tools we use have a profound (and devious!) influence on our thinking habits, and, therefore, on our thinking abilities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue is its own reward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21269]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue is its own reward.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21269</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The soft droppes of raine perce the hard Marble, many strokes overthrow the tallest Oke. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46160]]></link><description><![CDATA[The soft droppes of raine perce the hard Marble, many strokes overthrow the tallest Oke.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46160</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The planet is fine.
