It is personal, with things happening between people as well as to and in them individually; it is compassionate, always eager to help, observant but non judgmental toward others, breathing out hope and concern; it is creative, with imagination about each one in the group and its work as a whole, watching for authentic new vision coming from any of them; and it is expectant, always seeking to offer to God open and believing hearts and minds through which He can work out His will, either in the sometimes startling miracles He gives or in steady purpose through long stretches where there is no special "opening". It may fairly be said that unless one enmeshes himself in this "redemptive fellowship" of the church, he lessens his chances of steady growth and effectiveness, in his Christian life and experience.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7101</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blair has brought to you destruction in central London, and he will bring more of that, God willing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29810]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blair has brought to you destruction in central London, and he will bring more of that, God willing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee, and just as hard to sleep after. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9045]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good communication is as stimulating as black coffee, and just as hard to sleep after.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9045</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief -But the pain of griefIs only a ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18320]]></link><description><![CDATA[The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief -But the pain of griefIs only a shadowWhen compared with the painOf never risking love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18320</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You don't drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44265]]></link><description><![CDATA[You don't drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44265</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only thing that will make you happy is being happy with who you are, and not who people think ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62896]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only thing that will make you happy is being happy with who you are, and not who people think you are.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/62896</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I really don't want this to be goodbye.

This can happen, but if it does not, it is not a sign that the meditation period has been useless. Not only at the beginning, but repeatedly, there will be times when we feel a great spiritual dryness and apathy, an aversion, even an inability to meditate. We dare not be balked by such experiences. Above all, we must not allow them to keep us from adhering to our meditation period with great patience and fidelity.  It is, therefore, not good for us to take too seriously the many untoward experiences we have with ourselves in meditation. It is here that our old vanity and our illicit claims upon God may creep in by a pious detour, as if it were our right to have nothing but elevating and fruitful experiences, and as if the discovery of our own inner poverty were quite beneath our dignity. With that attitude, we shall make no progress.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men speake of the faire, as things went with them there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49626]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men speake of the faire, as things went with them there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49626</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Today is just a good day in disguise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47743]]></link><description><![CDATA[Today is just a good day in disguise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47743</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Farre shooting never kild bird. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49234]]></link><description><![CDATA[Farre shooting never kild bird.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49234</guid></item></channel></rss>
