The one only and infallible way to go safely through all the difficulties, trials, temptations, dryness, or opposition of our own evil tempers is this: It is to expect nothing from ourselves, to trust to nothing in ourselves, but in everything to expect and depend upon God for relief. Keep fast hold of this thread, and then let your way be what it will -- darkness, temptation, or the rebellion of nature -- you will be led through it all, to an union with God: for nothing hurts us in any state but an expectation of some thing in it and from it, which we should only expect from God.

Here lies the ground of the great efficacy of prayer, which when it is the prayer of the heart, the prayer of faith, has a kindling and creating power, and forms and transforms the soul into everything that the desire reaches after: it has the key to the Kingdom of Heaven and unlocks all its treasures; it opens, extends and moves that in us which has its being and motion in and with the divine nature. and so it brings us into real union and Communion with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7355</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Even if he is going to be confirmed, there are strategic reasons to make the 'no' vote as high as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42405]]></link><description><![CDATA[Even if he is going to be confirmed, there are strategic reasons to make the 'no' vote as high as possible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42405</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The tragedy is when you've got sex in the head instead of down where it belongs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59535]]></link><description><![CDATA[The tragedy is when you've got sex in the head instead of down where it belongs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Now conquering Rome doth conquered Rome inter, And she the vanquished is, and vanquisher.  To show us where she ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54396]]></link><description><![CDATA[Now conquering Rome doth conquered Rome inter, And she the vanquished is, and vanquisher.  To show us where she stood there rests alone   Tiber; and that too hastens to be gone.    Learn, hence what fortune can.
