A quarter of an hour of this prayer, brings you out of your closet a new man; your heart feels the good of it; and every return of such a prayer, gives new life and growth to all your virtues, with more certainty, than the dew refreshes the herbs of the field: whereas, overlooking this true prayer of your own heart, and only at certain times taking a prayer that you find in a book, you have nothing to wonder at, if you are every day praying, and yet every day sinking further and further under all your infirmities. [Continued tomorrow].]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7074</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People want to be able to use more of their outdoor space, and they want flexibility. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33316]]></link><description><![CDATA[People want to be able to use more of their outdoor space, and they want flexibility.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never forget the power of silence, that massively disconcerting pause which goes on and on and may at last induce ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44361]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never forget the power of silence, that massively disconcerting pause which goes on and on and may at last induce an opponent to babble and backtrack nervously.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44361</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have made a commitment to improve out community. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38446]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have made a commitment to improve out community.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a travelling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64219]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a travelling to the edge of knowledge, then a leap taken.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only thing I can figure out without going into the motor is that it looks like it broke a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38158]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only thing I can figure out without going into the motor is that it looks like it broke a main stud (one of three inside the engine which holds the crankshaft in place), ...

But I loved them better and better -- and still I knew how little was my love for them compared to Christ's. It is easy enough for a man to be honest and a "Good Christian" and keeper of "the moral law", when he has his own little room, his purse well filled -- when he is well shod and well fed. It is far less easy for a man who has to live from day to day, roaming from city to city, from factory to factory. It is far less easy for someone just out of jail, with nothing to wear but old down-at-the-heels shoes and a shirt in rags. All of a sudden, I understood our Lord's words: "I was in prison ... and you visited me not." All these men, lazy, outside the law, starving: these failures of all kinds -- they were dear to Christ -- they were Christ, waiting in prison for someone to lean over Him -- and if we were true Christians, we would do them every kindness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8247</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Muhammad does not believe in violence, Muhammad does not believe in punishment.
