There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Suppose we've chosen the wrong god ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53449]]></link><description><![CDATA[Suppose we've chosen the wrong god]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53449</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I learned that it is the weak who are cruel, and that gentleness is to be expected only from the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22251]]></link><description><![CDATA[I learned that it is the weak who are cruel, and that gentleness is to be expected only from the strong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22251</guid></item></channel></rss>
