Certainly Jeremiah was no integrated personality. It is doubtful if... he ever knew the meaning of the word "peace". We have no evidence that his internal struggle was ever ended, although the passing years no doubt brought an increasing acceptance of destiny. Jeremiah, if his "confessions" are any index, needed a course in pastoral psychiatry in the very worst way... The feeling cannot be escaped that if Jeremiah had been integrated, it would have been at the cost of ceasing to be Jeremiah! A man at peace simply could not be a Jeremiah. Spiritual health is good; mental assurance is good; but the summons of faith is neither to an integrated personality nor to the laying-by of all questions, but to the dedication of personality -- with all its fears and questions -- to its duty and destiny under God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8116</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1796]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1796</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15166]]></link><description><![CDATA[Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15166</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, Martyr, 1170   Oh, how precious is time, and how it pains ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6318]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, Martyr, 1170   Oh, how precious is time, and how it pains me to see it slide away, while I do so little to any good purpose.
