And every human heart that breaks,  In prison-cell or yard, Is as that broken box that gave  Its treasure to the Lord, And filled the unclean leper's house  With the scent of costliest nard. Ah! happy they whose hearts can break  And peace of pardon win! How else may man make straight his plan  And cleanse his soul from sin? How else but through a broken heart  May Lord Christ enter in?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8397</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set outto accomplish it.

He should make this purpose the centralizing point ofhis thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be aworldly object, according to his nature at the time being; but whicheverit is, he should steadily focus his thought forces upon the object whichhe has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, andshould devote himself to its attainment, not allowing his thoughts towander away into ephemeral fancies, longings, and imaginings. This is theroyal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if hefails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily mustuntil weakness is overcome), the strength of character gained will be themeasure of his true success, and this will form a new starting point forfuture power and triumph.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22745</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24477]]></link><description><![CDATA[Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.

It is here ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7479]]></link><description><![CDATA[Continued from yesterday:  The result of all this is that the Christian is a free man. It is here to be observed that the term "freedom" is ambiguous in common usage. It is sometimes used to imply that a man can do just as he likes, undetermined by any external force. To this the determinist replies that as a matter of fact this freedom is so limited by the laws which condition man's empirical existence as to be illusory. The rejoinder from the advocates of free will is that no external force can determine a man's moral conduct (and with mere automatism we are not concerned), unless it is presented in consciousness, and that in being so presented it becomes a desire, a temptation, or a motive. In suffering himself to be determined by these, the man is not submitting to external control, but to something which he has already made a part of himself, for good or ill. When, however, we have said that, we are faced with a further problem. Not all that is desired is desirable, and in being moved by my immediate desire I may be balking myself of that ultimate satisfaction which is the real object of all effort. If that is so, then to "do as I like" may well be no freedom at all. There is a law of our being which forbids satisfaction to be found along that line, as it is written, "He gave them their desire, and sent leanness into their souls." (Ps. 106:15) (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7479</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Simply the thing I am shall make me live. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25032]]></link><description><![CDATA[Simply the thing I am shall make me live.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25032</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let us hope, that a kind Providence will put a speedy end to the acts of God under which we ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51908]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let us hope, that a kind Providence will put a speedy end to the acts of God under which we have been laboring]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51908</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like his parents, Tristan is a fighter and we know they are going to get through this.
