He was never for one moment of any day out of touch with God. He was speaking and listening to the Father all day long; and yet He, who was in such constant touch with God, felt the need, as well as the joy, of more prolonged and more quiet communion with Him... Most of the reasons that drive us to pray for strength and forgiveness could never have driven Him; and yet He needed prayer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6580</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Easter   Almighty and everlasting God, Who hast preserved me by Thy fatherly care through all the years of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8097]]></link><description><![CDATA[Easter   Almighty and everlasting God, Who hast preserved me by Thy fatherly care through all the years of my past life, and now permittest me again to commemorate the sufferings and merits of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, grant me so to partake of this holy rite, that the disquiet of my mind may be appeased, that my faith may be increased, my hope strengthened, and my life regulated by Thy Will. Make me truly thankful for that portion of health which Thy mercy has restored, and enable me to use the remains of life to Thy glory and my own salvation. Take not from me, O Lord, Thy Holy Spirit. Extinguish in my mind all sinful and inordinate desires. Let me resolve to do that which is right, and let me by Thy help keep my resolutions. Let me, if it is best for me, at last know peace and comfort, but whatever state of life Thou shalt appoint me, let me end it by a happy death, and enjoy eternal happiness in Thy presence, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger blows out the lamp of the mind.

But if anything of this kind runs all through the course of our life, if we allow ourselves in things that are either vain, foolish, or sensual, we renounce our profession. For as sure as Jesus Christ was wisdom and holiness, as sure as He came to make us like Himself and to be baptized into His Spirit, so sure is it that none can be said to keep to their Christian profession but they who, to the utmost of their power, live a wise and holy and heavenly life. This, and this alone, is Christianity, a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is sheer folly when all is gone to lose even one's passage money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50461]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is sheer folly when all is gone to lose even one's passage money.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pain is no longer pain when it is past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45368]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pain is no longer pain when it is past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58646]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58646</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Know Ye not ... that the spirit of God dwelleth within you? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4197]]></link><description><![CDATA[Know Ye not ... that the spirit of God dwelleth within you?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4197</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's timely and silences those who were betting Syria would not allow the interrogation of any Syrian, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36203]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's timely and silences those who were betting Syria would not allow the interrogation of any Syrian,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36203</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They were just hanging around.
