In that sense God is not omnipotent: He is limited by His own nature, by His perfect goodness and mercy; for the omnipotence of God means nothing apart from His Fatherly love. In particular, this limitation of the power of God is to be found in the measure of freedom which, as His children, we enjoy. God shares His power with us so that, for a time at least, if we so determine, we can break His laws and frustrate His plans, but also so that we can give to Him, if we choose, the free allegiance of our hearts and minds, and become children at His Family Table, drawn together by the compulsion of His love, and not the exercise of His might.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6553</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Joy makes us giddy, dizzy. [Ger., Die Freude macht drehend, wirblicht.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23429]]></link><description><![CDATA[Joy makes us giddy, dizzy. [Ger., Die Freude macht drehend, wirblicht.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many highly intelligent people are poor thinkers. many people of average intelligence are skilled thinkrs.
