Neither trouble your heads though you have not commentaries and exposition. Pray and read, read and pray; for a little from God is better than a great deal from men. Also, what is from men is uncertain, and is often lost and tumbled over by men; but what is from God is fixed as a nail in a sure place. There is nothing that so abides with us as what we receive from God; and the reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from men's mouths, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things. Things we receive at God's hands come to us as truths from the minting house, though old in themselves, yet new to us. Old truths are always new to us if they come with the smell of Heaven upon them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We used to see a very large growth in our ground business, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38471]]></link><description><![CDATA[We used to see a very large growth in our ground business,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38471</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Get up, stand up, Stand up for your rights.
