And if your prayer is only a form of words, made by the skill of other people, such a prayer can no more change you into a good man, than an actor upon the stage, who speaks kingly language, is thereby made to be a king: whereas one thought, or word, or look, towards God, proceeding from your own heart, can never be without its proper fruit, or fail of doing a real good to your soul. Again, another great and infallible benefit of this kind of prayer is this; it is the only way to be delivered from the deceitfulness of your own hearts.

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[So, to prepare for the role, I had to take music lessons, talk to wives who had husbands overseas, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39355]]></link><description><![CDATA[So, to prepare for the role, I had to take music lessons, talk to wives who had husbands overseas, and carefully study the reactions and mannerisms of a friend who was expecting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The city of Atlanta has always had a good spirit. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36794]]></link><description><![CDATA[The city of Atlanta has always had a good spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36794</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's as good of an outing as he's had all year. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38208]]></link><description><![CDATA[That's as good of an outing as he's had all year.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38208</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The coming of the printing press must have seemed as if it would turn the world upside down in the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9506]]></link><description><![CDATA[The coming of the printing press must have seemed as if it would turn the world upside down in the way it spread and, above all, democratized knowledge.
