This is the one only band of union betwixt God and the creature... Here the necessity is absolute; nothing will do instead of this will; all contrivances of holiness, all forms of religious piety, signify nothing without this will to all goodness. For as the will to all goodness is the whole nature of God, so it must be the whole nature of every service of religion that can be acceptable to him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7069</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think our girls were in awe of their pitcher. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39834]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think our girls were in awe of their pitcher.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39834</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are often capable of greater things than they perform.
