"This friend is always sure and right;  His lantern is sufficient light -- I need no star," I said. I sought Him in the city square.  Logic and I went up and down  The marketplace of many a town, And He was never there. I tracked Him to the mind's far rim.  The valiant Intellect went forth  To east and west and south and north, And found no trace of Him. We walked the world from sun to sun,  Logic and I, with little Faith,  But never came to Nazareth, Or found the Holy One. I sought in vain. And finally,  Back to the heart's small house I crept,  And fell upon my knees, and wept; And lo! -- He came to me!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7787</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[His native home deep imag'd in his soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19629]]></link><description><![CDATA[His native home deep imag'd in his soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We see that our whole salvation and all its parts are comprehended in Christ.

We should therefore take care not to derive the least portion of it from anywhere else. If we seek salvation, we are taught by the very name of Jesus that it is "of him". If we seek any other gifts of the Spirit, they will be found in his anointing. If we seek strength, it lies in his dominion; if purity, in his conception; if gentleness, it appears in his birth. For by his birth he was made like us in all respects that he might learn to feel our pain. If we seek redemption, it lies in his passion; if acquittal, in his condemnation; if remission of the curse, in his cross; if satisfaction, in his sacrifice; if purification, in his blood; if reconciliation, in his descent into hell; if mortification of the flesh, in his tomb; if newness of life, in his resurrection; if immortality, in the same; if inheritance of the Heavenly Kingdom, in his entrance into heaven; if protection, if security, if abundant supply of all blessings, in his Kingdom; if untroubled expectation of judgment, in the power given to him to judge. In short, since rich store of every kind of good abounds in him, let us drink our fill from this fountain, and from no other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7546</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am constantly being told that I have been a big influence for many people, including other musicians. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37988]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am constantly being told that I have been a big influence for many people, including other musicians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37988</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The developer has met all the requests and conditions that we've asked.
