But, there was once a garret up under the roof, a poor, bare place enough. There was a table in it, and there were some benches, and a water-pot; a towel, and a basin in behind the door, but not much else -- a bare, unhomelike room. But the Lord Christ entered into it. And, from that moment, it became the holiest of all, where souls innumerable ever since have met the Lord God, in High glory, face to face. And, if you give Him entrance to that very ordinary heart of yours, it too He will transform and sanctify and touch with a splendour of glory.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7468</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Axylos, Teuthranos's son that dwelt in stablished Arisbe; a man of substance dear to his fellows; for his dwelling was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19859]]></link><description><![CDATA[Axylos, Teuthranos's son that dwelt in stablished Arisbe; a man of substance dear to his fellows; for his dwelling was by the road-side and he entertained all men.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19859</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a long time in the hot seat and I was hopeful that I might hold on, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40266]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was a long time in the hot seat and I was hopeful that I might hold on,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40266</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art consists of limitation.

But what doth the Christian like this? None is ashamed, none repenteth, save that he was not such long ago. If he be marked down, he glorieth; if accused, maketh no defense; being questioned, confesseth even of his own accord; being condemned, giveth thanks. What manner of evil is this, which hath not the natural marks of evil, fear, shame, shrinking, penitence, sorrow?
