This we see in Christ when He saith: "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do."  ... Theologia Germanica  June 21, 1998  Alas! day by day we ask that His Will may be done, and yet, when it comes to the doing, we find it so hard! We offer ourselves so often to God -- we continually say, "Lord, I am Thine, I give Thee my heart," and when He accepts it, we are such cowards. How dare we call ourselves His, if we cannot shape our own wills to His?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The thirst that from the soul doth rise, Doth ask a drink divine;  But might I of Jove's nectar ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59397]]></link><description><![CDATA[The thirst that from the soul doth rise, Doth ask a drink divine;  But might I of Jove's nectar sup,   I would not change for thine.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For if there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65334]]></link><description><![CDATA[For if there is a sin against life, it consists perhaps not so much in despairing of life as in hoping for another life and in eluding the implacable grandeur of this life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65334</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had the feeling she was taking a doctor-patient confidentiality role. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36167]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had the feeling she was taking a doctor-patient confidentiality role.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36167</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Similar problems are faced in every household, but this is on a much larger scale. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38684]]></link><description><![CDATA[Similar problems are faced in every household, but this is on a much larger scale.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38684</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do you think then that revolutions are made with rose water? [Fr., Voulez-vous donc qu'on vous fasse des revolutions a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54134]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do you think then that revolutions are made with rose water? [Fr., Voulez-vous donc qu'on vous fasse des revolutions a l'eau-rose?]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54134</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prayer is a confession of one's own unworthiness and weakness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53660]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prayer is a confession of one's own unworthiness and weakness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53660</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To give yourself the best possible chance of playing to your potential, you must prepare for every eventuality.

But it was different with those who could claim no such prerogative, and with those Jews who had become uneasy as to the grounds of such a relation and their validity -- in a word, with any who had been led by conscience to take a deeper view of the consequences of sin. So long as these were found mainly in punishment, suffering, judgment, so long 'remission of sins' -- letting off the consequences -- might suffice. But when it was recognized that sin had a far more serious consequence in alienation from God, the severing of the fellowship between God and His children, then Justification... ceased to be sufficient. 'Forgiveness' took on a deeper meaning; it connoted restoration of the fellowship, the establishment or reestablishment of a relation which could be described on the one side as fatherly, on the other as filial.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6540</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Far more important to me is, that I should be loyal to what I regard as the law of my ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18012]]></link><description><![CDATA[Far more important to me is, that I should be loyal to what I regard as the law of my political life, which is this: a belief that that country is best governed, which is least                     governed ...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Among all nations there should be vast temples raised where people might worship in silence and listen to it, for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43739]]></link><description><![CDATA[Among all nations there should be vast temples raised where people might worship in silence and listen to it, for it is the voice of God]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43739</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I don't really see [today's bad corporate news] as significant fundamental factors, I see it more as an excuse for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28346]]></link><description><![CDATA[I don't really see [today's bad corporate news] as significant fundamental factors, I see it more as an excuse for short-term profit-taking.
