Common sense tells us this assumption is wrong -- and nothing in the Bible supports such a conclusion. Believing that God is the Lord of history, we believe that God is at work now in the development of industry and commerce throughout the world, in the experiments and researches of the scientists, in the deliberations of the United Nations, and in the course of events in Berlin and Havana, in Moscow and Peiping, and Detroit. One might say, then that He seems to be doing some very strange and contradictory things! But, though we cannot claim to know God's purpose in all this, we do believe that God acts in all these circumstances. The revolutionary changes of our time are not all a mistake: they are not taking place without God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In all matters, before beginning, a diligent preparation should be made. [Lat., In omnibus negotiis prius quam aggrediare, adhibenda est ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3949]]></link><description><![CDATA[In all matters, before beginning, a diligent preparation should be made. [Lat., In omnibus negotiis prius quam aggrediare, adhibenda est praeparatio diligens.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3949</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Don’t ask what the world needs.

The Huntsman wished to have the fish, and their owner experienced an equal longing for the contents of the game-bag. They quickly agreed to exchange the produce of their day's sport. Each was so well pleased with his bargain that they made for some time the same exchange day after day. Finally a neighbor said to them, If you go on in this way, you will soon destroy by frequent use the pleasure of your exchange, and each will again wish to retain the fruits of his own sport. Abstain and enjoy.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1596</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As he was valiant, I honour him.
