If you are determined in your purpose, if you have the will to do the Will, then with half a creed and less than half a pious ecstasy, you are at least in the line of the purpose of Jesus Christ; and as you will to do His will, may come some day to know the teaching.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48643]]></link><description><![CDATA[The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The sons of Edward sleep in Abraham's bosom. -King Richard III.

The danger is that we may fail to perceive life's greatest meaning, fall short of its highest good, miss its deepest and most abiding happiness, be unable to tender the most needed service, be unconscious of life ablaze with the light of the Presence of God -- and be content to have it so -- that is the danger: that some day we may wake up and find that always we have been busy with husks and trappings of life and have really missed life itself. For life without God, to one who has known the richness and joy of life with Him, is unthinkable, impossible. That is what one prays one's friends may be spared -- satisfaction with a life that falls short of the best, that has in it no tingle or thrill that comes from a friendship with the Father.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7813</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Ass and the Old Shepherd A SHEPHERD, watching his Ass feeding in a meadow, was alarmed allof a sudden ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1504]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Ass and the Old Shepherd A SHEPHERD, watching his Ass feeding in a meadow, was alarmed allof a sudden by the cries of the enemy. He appealed to the Ass tofly with him, lest they should both be captured, but the animallazily replied, Why should I, pray? Do you think it likely theconqueror will place on me two sets of panniers?' No, rejoinedthe Shepherd. Then, said the Ass, as long as I carry thepanniers, what matters it to me whom I serve?' In a change of government the poor change nothing beyond the name of their master.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1504</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Historically that (bass) number is way, way down.
