There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If our common life is not a common course of humility, self-denial, renunciation of the world, poverty of spirit, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6928]]></link><description><![CDATA[If our common life is not a common course of humility, self-denial, renunciation of the world, poverty of spirit, and heavenly affection, we do not live the lives of Christians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6928</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You need to know how to ask the right questions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33171]]></link><description><![CDATA[You need to know how to ask the right questions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[By the street of by-and-by, one arrives at the house of never. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14583]]></link><description><![CDATA[By the street of by-and-by, one arrives at the house of never.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On top of this, it's a good idea to take up references. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36402]]></link><description><![CDATA[On top of this, it's a good idea to take up references.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That was probably one of the most memorable things.
