Take from me all slothfulness, and give me a diligent and an active spirit, and wisdom to choose my employment; that I may do works proportionable to my person and to the dignity of a Christian, and may fill up all the spaces of my time with actions of religion and charity; that, when the devil assaults me, he may not find me idle; and my dearest Lord, at his sudden coming, may find me busy in lawful, necessary, and pious actions, improving my talent entrusted to me by thee, my Lord; that I may enter into the joy of my Lord, to partake of his eternal felicities, even for thy mercy's sake, and for my dearest Saviour's sake. Amen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everybody is so rushed, they don't take time for the whimsical, the light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41742]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everybody is so rushed, they don't take time for the whimsical, the light.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41742</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If producers are thinking about planting corn rootworm-resistant corn, they will first want to make sure their buyer is willing ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32134]]></link><description><![CDATA[If producers are thinking about planting corn rootworm-resistant corn, they will first want to make sure their buyer is willing to buy that corn.
