Let us pray then with faith, and not lose the fruits of our prayers by a wavering uncertainty which, as St. James testifies, hinders the success of them. The same apostle advises us to pray when we are in trouble because thereby we should find consolation; yet we are so wretched that this heavenly employment is often a burden instead of a comfort to us. The lukewarmness of our prayers is the source of all our other infidelities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That eagle's fate and mine are one, Which, on the shaft that made him die,  Espied a feather of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13107]]></link><description><![CDATA[That eagle's fate and mine are one, Which, on the shaft that made him die,  Espied a feather of his own,   Wherewith he wont to soar so high.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13107</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.

Therefore, the true way for you to find Christ is not to go groping in a thousand books. It is not for you to try evidences about a thousand things that people have believed of Him, but it is for you to undertake so great a life, so devoted a life, so pure a life, so serviceable a life, that you cannot do it except by Christ, and then see whether Christ helps you. See then whether there comes to you the certainty that you are a child of God, and the manifestation of the child of God becomes the most credible, the most certain thing to you in all of history.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are quite close to a common definition of safe harbor principles. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32869]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are quite close to a common definition of safe harbor principles.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32869</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1176]]></link><description><![CDATA[When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around.
