There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Surely there must be some way to find a husband or, for that matter, merely an escort, without sacrificing one's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/53329]]></link><description><![CDATA[Surely there must be some way to find a husband or, for that matter, merely an escort, without sacrificing one's privacy, self-respect, and interior decorating scheme.

They had shortcomings enough, it is true, and divisions and scandals not a few, for even apostolic times were no golden age of purity and primitive simplicity. Yet we can see that their fullness of life, and hope, and promise for the future, were a new sort of power in the world. Within their own limits they had solved almost by the way the social problem which baffled Rome, and baffles Europe still. They had lifted woman to her rightful place, restored the dignity of labour, abolished beggary, and drawn the sting of slavery. The secret of the revolution is that the selfishness of race and class were forgotten in the Supper of the Lord, and a new basis for society found in love of the visible image of God in men for whom Christ died.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6624</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ability is a poor man's wealth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ability is a poor man's wealth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every age, every culture, every custom and tradition has its own character, its own weakness and its own strength, its ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every age, every culture, every custom and tradition has its own character, its own weakness and its own strength, its beauties and cruelties; it accepts certain sufferings as matters of course, puts up patiently with certain evils.
