At the very least, they can add a note of reality to what the minister offers. In many cases, the group takes up where the individual counseling left off, supplementing it or even eliminating it entirely. I have been repeatedly thankful that a group was available to give steady guidance who had made a fresh start in Christian living, but who still had a long way to go; this has been especially true in cases of loneliness, moderate emotional instability, inability to understand others, and need of continued guidance in the use of prayer and the Bible and the accepting and giving of love. In the nature of the case, no amount of individual counseling can fully deal with these needs. The "priesthood of all believers" becomes a recognized fact, with each person helping to open up for his neighbor the way to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7404</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I suppose one could construct Madame Clarkson's very active involvement in these last few days and her coming to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38455]]></link><description><![CDATA[I suppose one could construct Madame Clarkson's very active involvement in these last few days and her coming to the ceremony as wanting to support the office and the institution in the face of some controversy that's been around Madame Jean, and a desire to be visible in support of her,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Humanitarian missions are little different from any other public enterprise, diplomacy included, which is susceptible of misinterpretation by the public, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29008]]></link><description><![CDATA[Humanitarian missions are little different from any other public enterprise, diplomacy included, which is susceptible of misinterpretation by the public, hence ultimately of failure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29008</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that lives not well one yeare, sorrowes seven after. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49374]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that lives not well one yeare, sorrowes seven after.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49374</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fools-to-free-the-world, they go, Primeval hearts from Buffalo.  Red cataracts of France to-day   Awake, three thousand miles away, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44501]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fools-to-free-the-world, they go, Primeval hearts from Buffalo.  Red cataracts of France to-day   Awake, three thousand miles away,    An echo of Niagara     The cataract of Niagara.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44501</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wisdom of hindsight, so useful to historians and indeed to authors of memoirs, is sadly denied to practicing politicians. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19455]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wisdom of hindsight, so useful to historians and indeed to authors of memoirs, is sadly denied to practicing politicians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If the Romans had been obliged to learn Latin, they would never have found time to conquer the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13426]]></link><description><![CDATA[If the Romans had been obliged to learn Latin, they would never have found time to conquer the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5220]]></link><description><![CDATA[Advocates of capitalism are very apt to appeal to the sacred principles of liberty, which are embodied in one maxim: The fortunate must not be restrained in the exercise of tyranny over the unfortunate]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5220</guid></item></channel></rss>
