To be grasped, God's will must be met with a readiness to obey.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6454</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I feel like I want to crawl out of my skin, especially when people start questioning me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64605]]></link><description><![CDATA[I feel like I want to crawl out of my skin, especially when people start questioning me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children seldom misquote you.

When you make a choice, you activate vast human energies and resources, which otherwise go untapped. All too often people fail to focus their choices upon results and therefore their choices are ineffective.

([Dr. Arthur] Way's translation shows this.) One line in a song that comes in Romans 8 has been a great help to me. Way calls the song a "Hymn of Triumph to Jesus". This is the line: "How can He [the Father] but, in giving Him [Jesus], lavish on us all things -- all?" "Freely give" means to give lavishly. What do I need today? Strength? Peace? Patience? Heavenly joy? Industry? Good temper? Power to help others? Inward contentment? Courage? Whatever it be, my God will lavish it upon me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a cold winter Sunday afternoon. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4626]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was a cold winter Sunday afternoon.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Children today are tyrants.
