For to men there is a difference of joy and of sorrow, but for thee, O Lord, there is no difference in these things; everything that comes from thee is a good and perfect gift.   ... Søren Kierkegaard August 16, 2000   By giving to Jesus Christ, the Man who was crucified under Pontius Pilate, this historical personality, the name of Lord, the Saviour, we renounce all mysticism. For mysticism in the strict sense exists only where one soars above the sphere of history, and where in place of the Mediator and the historical event are put the inner word of God, the inner motions of the soul, in order to reach immediacy between soul and God, and, in the end, the identity of both. But while it is necessary to safeguard the Christian message of the Holy Spirit from the mystical misunderstanding by calling attention to its relation to Jesus Christ, it is necessary on the other hand to safeguard the message of Jesus Christ and His work from the orthodox and rationalist misunderstanding by emphasizing that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord but by the Holy Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6691</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I praise the Frenchman; his remark was shrewd,-- "How sweet, how passing sweet is solitude."  But grant me still ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57172]]></link><description><![CDATA[I praise the Frenchman; his remark was shrewd,-- "How sweet, how passing sweet is solitude."  But grant me still a friend in my retreat,   Whom I may whisper--Solitude is sweet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57172</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dear Jesus!

Therefore, the true way for you to find Christ is not to go groping in a thousand books. It is not for you to try evidences about a thousand things that people have believed of Him, but it is for you to undertake so great a life, so devoted a life, so pure a life, so serviceable a life, that you cannot do it except by Christ, and then see whether Christ helps you. See then whether there comes to you the certainty that you are a child of God, and the manifestation of the child of God becomes the most credible, the most certain thing to you in all of history.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Heaven has a road, but no one travels it; Hell has no gate but men will dig to get there. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19100]]></link><description><![CDATA[Heaven has a road, but no one travels it; Hell has no gate but men will dig to get there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19100</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I expect that on Wednesday we will be asking people to inform the inquiry as to whether they have any ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38438]]></link><description><![CDATA[I expect that on Wednesday we will be asking people to inform the inquiry as to whether they have any wish to examine the prime minister in relation to his statement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38438</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every countenance seeked to say, "Long live George Washington, the Father of the People." ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61235]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every countenance seeked to say, "Long live George Washington, the Father of the People."]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61235</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66016]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66016</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're all trying to get ready for the playoffs.
