This is essential prayer: uttered or unexpressed, it is equally prayer. It is the soul's desire after God going forth in a manifestation, ... the soul striving after God. This is a prayer that may exist without ceasing, consisting, as it does, not in doing or saying this or that, but in temper and attitude of the spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6574</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2399]]></link><description><![CDATA[This nation is peaceful, but fierce when stirred to anger.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You also, O son Brutus. [Lat., Et tu, Brute fili.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43387]]></link><description><![CDATA[You also, O son Brutus. [Lat., Et tu, Brute fili.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43387</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A health to the nut-brown lass, With the hazel eyes: let it pass.  . . . .   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59417]]></link><description><![CDATA[A health to the nut-brown lass, With the hazel eyes: let it pass.  . . . .   As much to the lively grey    'Tis as good i' th' night as day:     . . . .      She's a savour to the glass,       And excuse to make it pass.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59417</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man of refined taste and judgment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50178]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man of refined taste and judgment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16991]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love comes unseen; we only see it go. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63368]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love comes unseen; we only see it go.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63368</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Head Start plays a big role.

It blends into the scenery. Many people assume that we live in a "Christian society". Obviously, the Christian church has no strong witness against society. In [a communist country], the situation is exactly the opposite. Christians there live under a political regime which makes a point of distinguishing itself from all religion, and which is grounded philosophically on atheism and materialism. The Church lives in a hostile social order. The result is that the weak Christians are weeded out, and the strong Christians are tremendously strengthened by adversity.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6588</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Simon & Jude, Apostles  True spiritual power of the Christian order is a kind of possessedness.

It arises in and flows through a life hid with Christ in God. Its source is the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the potency of the Holy Spirit. True spiritual power is the child of two parents: the truth as it is revealed in Jesus and our own experience resulting upon our acceptance of Him and His truth. The objective factor is that whole set of facts and truths, of historic events, and of interpretation of them, which is held by the church and set forth in the Bible. The subjective factor is what happens in the crucible of your life and mine when we accept the set of facts and truths and interpretations, and it begins to work in us.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6587</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Immodest words admit of no defence; For want of decency is want of sense. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42904]]></link><description><![CDATA[Immodest words admit of no defence; For want of decency is want of sense.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42904</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[May you look back on the past with as much pleasure as you look forward to the future. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19416]]></link><description><![CDATA[May you look back on the past with as much pleasure as you look forward to the future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19416</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am in control at all times. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35700]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am in control at all times.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35700</guid></item></channel></rss>
