It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7523</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am a gentleman, though spoiled i' the breeding.

Just in the same way, dogmas and creeds cannot bring Christian unity, because human minds are not so uniformly created that they can unite in a single dogma or creed. Even our understanding of Christ Himself cannot be the basis of unity, because He is too big to be understood by any one person or group, and therefore our limited understandings do not always coincide. One emphasizes this point about Christ, another that; and this again becomes the cause of divisions. If we will only take our fellowship with Christ as the center of Christian faith, all Christians will realize their oneness... All our fellowship, however varied, is with the same Lord, and the same Saviour is our one Head.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7065</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12719]]></link><description><![CDATA[The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12719</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tax which will be paid for the purpose of education is not more than the thousandth part of what ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20389]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tax which will be paid for the purpose of education is not more than the thousandth part of what will be paid to kings, priests and nobles who will rise up among us if we leave the people in ignorance]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success produces success, just as money produces money ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33586]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success produces success, just as money produces money]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33586</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Starting from scratch and being able to put a whole new defense in, being where we are today, we definitely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30484]]></link><description><![CDATA[Starting from scratch and being able to put a whole new defense in, being where we are today, we definitely accomplished something.
