It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The value of identity of course is that so often with it comes purpose. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20296]]></link><description><![CDATA[The value of identity of course is that so often with it comes purpose.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/20296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If someone had told me I would be Pope one day, I would have studied harder. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25296]]></link><description><![CDATA[If someone had told me I would be Pope one day, I would have studied harder.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A fool's wild speech confounds the wise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51076]]></link><description><![CDATA[A fool's wild speech confounds the wise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51076</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the eye of the intellect "sees in all objects what it brought with it the means of seeing."  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22876]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the eye of the intellect "sees in all objects what it brought with it the means of seeing."   - Thomas Carlyle,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22876</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44290]]></link><description><![CDATA[There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44290</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One of the most valuable things we can do to heal one another is listen to each other's stories. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53277]]></link><description><![CDATA[One of the most valuable things we can do to heal one another is listen to each other's stories.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing training cannot do.

The most experienced psychologist or observer of human nature knows infinitely less of the human heart than the simplest Christian who lives beneath the Cross of Jesus. The greatest psychological insight, ability, and experience cannot grasp this one thing: what sin is. Worldly wisdom knows what distress and weakness and failure are, but it does not know the godlessness of men. And so it also does not know that man is destroyed only by his sin and can be healed only by forgiveness. Only the Christian knows this. In the presence of a psychiatrist I can only be a sick man; in the presence of a Christian brother, I can dare to be a sinner.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8585</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accept everything about yourself -- I mean everything, you are you and that is the beginning and the end -- ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/284]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accept everything about yourself -- I mean everything, you are you and that is the beginning and the end -- no apologies, no regrets.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In the key persons 25-54 demographic, all three stations are tied in a statistical dead heat. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30276]]></link><description><![CDATA[In the key persons 25-54 demographic, all three stations are tied in a statistical dead heat.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30276</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dave Weldon is the one who loses the most here because he isn't going out of his way to show ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39733]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dave Weldon is the one who loses the most here because he isn't going out of his way to show his complete record.
