Yet even then, we have not reached the centre. For when we worship, we are in God's presence, and it is what He says and does to us that is the all-important thing, not what we say and do toward Him. Since He is here and speaking to us, face to face, it is for us, in a hush of spirit, to listen for and to His voice, reproving counseling, encouraging, revealing His most blessed will for us; and, with diligence, to set about immediate obedience. This and this, upon which He has laid His hand, must go; and this and this to which He calls us must be at once begun. And here and now I start to it. That is the heart of worship, its very core and essence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness consists in activity; such as the constitution of our nature; it is a running stream, and not a stagnant ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18659]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness consists in activity; such as the constitution of our nature; it is a running stream, and not a stagnant pool.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18659</guid></item></channel></rss>
