You comfort us in sorrow and bind up our wounds:  in sickness you nurse us,  and with pure milk you feed us. Jesus, by your dying we are born to new life:  by your anguish and labour we come forth in joy. Despair turns to hope through your sweet goodness:  through your gentleness we find comfort in fear. Your warmth gives life to the dead:  your touch makes sinners righteous. Lord Jesus, in your mercy heal us:  in your love and tenderness remake us. In your compassion bring grace and forgiveness:  for the beauty of heaven may your love prepare us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's like part of my family.

The deep, seemingly indestructible awareness of something like homesickness for God is the natural basis for believing in some kind of "fall" -- we seem to remember something better and to be possessed to recapture it. There appears to be a gap, a chasm, between God and us which must be crossed if we are to be in relationship with him. We know that our own wrongdoing can widen the chasm: we are not so sure what will close it. Yet our first great need is not for a set of rules about how to be good: it is for something to bridge that yawning canyon between us and the God we dimly seem to remember, but cannot entirely forget.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6654</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The race could save one-half its wasted labor Would each reform himself and spare his neighbor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53218]]></link><description><![CDATA[The race could save one-half its wasted labor Would each reform himself and spare his neighbor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53218</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've had eight before, but nine has got to be the very outer edge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38759]]></link><description><![CDATA[We've had eight before, but nine has got to be the very outer edge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38759</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The winning team has a dedication.
