As the New Testament uses the word, faith is trust, acceptance, commitment, vision. It is not a belief in this or that creed, it is a quality which lies rather in the realm of intuition than the intellect. Faith has indeed an element of true simplicity; it is one of the qualities -- perhaps the fundamental quality -- of the child-like spirit without which no man can enter the Kingdom of God.  ... Anonymous December 16, 1996  But lo' the snare is broke, the captive's freed,  By faith on all the hostile powers we tread, And crush through Jesus' strength the Serpent's head.  Jesus hath cast the cursed Accuser down,  Hath rooted up the tares by Satan sown:  All nature bows to His benign command, And two are one in His almighty hand. One in His hand, O may we still remain,  Fast bound with love's indissoluble chain;  (That adamant which time and death defies, That golden chain which draws us to the skies!)  His love the tie that binds us to His throne,  His love the bond that perfects us in one,  His only love constrains our hearts t' agree,  And gives the rivet of Eternity.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6049]]></link><description><![CDATA[Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6049</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only actions give life strength; only moderation gives it charm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42870]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only actions give life strength; only moderation gives it charm.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42870</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So Bhutan would stand out as a model, and Haiti is at the other end, ...
