"Ye shall search for me with all your heart." He makes a direct call to us for single-mindedness: a single-minded longing for Him -- no lesser aim will do; no desire to be good, no striving to measure up to some standard we have set for ourselves, to correct some failure we have been shown in our way of life. These may be temporarily necessary, but they will turn to dust and ashes, they will end in a grim dryness, unless at the back of them all is what He asks of us --a never-ending search for a real knowledge of Him, for a sense of His reality, a confidence in His companionship, a joy and delight in the very person of God Himself. It is for this that we must learn to long and long, till our prayers for it become not just a form of words, but a stretching out of our whole being to Him.  ... The Notebooks of Florence Allshorn    November 27, 1999  When God finished man He breathed into the human form the divine life, "and man became a living soul." Man is created to be a witness and likeness of God. God and man are so near to one another that it was possible for the Eternal Word to become Man without ceasing to be God, to re-ascend to the Highest without dehumanizing the Manhood which He had assumed; so near that the believer may say in the fullest meaning of the words, "I live, yet not I, but Christ".]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6675</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Go pretty rose, go to my fair, Go tell her all I fain would dare,  Tell her of hope; ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54419]]></link><description><![CDATA[Go pretty rose, go to my fair, Go tell her all I fain would dare,  Tell her of hope; tell her of spring,   Tell her of all I fain would sing,    Oh! were I like thee, so fair a thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54419</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With IPTV dramatically changing the entertainment market and helping to spur demand for broadband, IPTV products will be one of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38334]]></link><description><![CDATA[With IPTV dramatically changing the entertainment market and helping to spur demand for broadband, IPTV products will be one of the hottest items on the Telecom NEXT exhibit floor.

No, here was a sequence of great character and emancipated spirit, all attached to and explained by such a personality as the world never saw; and the central doctrine of the risen Christ squared with the rationality and the goodness of God... The wise said that God and the godlike could have no contact with suffering, but Jesus was no phantom feigning to be crucified; he truly suffered on the cross, he truly rose. Suffering is a language all can understand, and none can quite exhaust; and the suffering Christ, victorious over pain and death, meant for all who grasped his significance a new faith in God, a new freedom of mind in God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6623</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing on earth is so well-suited to make the sad merry, the merry sad, to give courage to the despairing, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13111]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing on earth is so well-suited to make the sad merry, the merry sad, to give courage to the despairing, to make the proud humble, to lessen envy and hate, as music]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am ready with my candies and my rockets and praying to Allah that Sharon dies.
