The Holy Spirit supports our helplessness. Left to ourselves we do not know what prayers to offer or how to offer them. But in those inarticulate groans which rise from the depth of our being, we recognize the voice of none other than the Holy Spirit. He makes intercession; and His intercession is sure to be answered. For God Who searches the inmost recesses of the heart can interpret His own Spirit's meaning. He knows that His own Will regulates Its petitions, and that they are offered for men dedicated to His service.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6326</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It may be said of them [the Hollanders], as of the Spaniards, that the sun never sets upon their Dominions. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47764]]></link><description><![CDATA[It may be said of them [the Hollanders], as of the Spaniards, that the sun never sets upon their Dominions.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems there are never enough [left-handed] desks.

The state of slavery described in Romans 7 is a slavery to wrong desires; not merely to "flesh" in the abstract, as implying our material nature and environment, but to the "mind of the flesh" -- the lower nature and environment made a part of one's conscious self. What the Law could not do, God has done by the gift of the Spirit of Christ: He has given the victory to the higher self. "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." (II Cor. 3:17) "The Law of the Spirit -- the law of a life in communion with Christ Jesus -- has made me free from the law of sin and death." (Rom. 8:2) Whereas life was a hopeless struggle, it now becomes a struggle in which the handicap is removed, and victory already secured in principle, because God has come into the life. The Law was external; it was the taskmaster set over against the troubled and fettered will of man. The Spirit is within, the mind of the Spirit is the mind of the man himself, and from within works out a growing perfection of life which satisfies the real longing of the soul. In the full sense freedom is still an object of hope; but the liberty already attained makes possible the building up of a Christian morality.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7481</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The habitual living in prosperity is most injurious. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51635]]></link><description><![CDATA[The habitual living in prosperity is most injurious.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A peaceful mind generates power. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22634]]></link><description><![CDATA[A peaceful mind generates power.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22634</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A positive attitude can really make dreams come true -- it did for me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22649]]></link><description><![CDATA[A positive attitude can really make dreams come true -- it did for me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22649</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has never failed somewhere, that man cannot be great. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57074]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has never failed somewhere, that man cannot be great.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How strange is the lot of us mortals!
