The Spirit of Jesus within us moves us to prayer: indeed, prayer is just the moving of God's Son in us towards the Father. Though we are burdened with the greatness of our need, so that our prayers are not even articulate, yet in such "inarticulate sighs" the Spirit "intercedes for us.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7559</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One fine day, Says Mister Mucklewraith to me, says he.  "So! you're a poet in your house," and smiled. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46846]]></link><description><![CDATA[One fine day, Says Mister Mucklewraith to me, says he.  "So! you're a poet in your house," and smiled.   "A Poet?

It is only a side effect of His actual presence in our souls, and gives no sure indication of that presence in any case.
