Jesus says that His yoke is easy, His burden is light. People sometimes refuse to do God's work just because it is easy. This is sometimes because they cannot believe that easy work is His work; but there may be a very bad pride in it.   Some, again, accept it with half a heart and do it with half a hand. But however easy any work may be, it can not be well done without taking thought about it. And such people, instead of taking thought about their work, generally take thought about the morrow -- in which no work can be done, any more than in yesterday.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8089</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you are going to be traveling, make sure all your immunizations are current, drink only bottled water and I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41450]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you are going to be traveling, make sure all your immunizations are current, drink only bottled water and I wouldn't eat poultry in Asia.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41450</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43725]]></link><description><![CDATA[A nation reveals itself not only by the men it produces but also by the men it honors, the men it remembers]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43725</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To have a smattering knowledge of anything. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48531]]></link><description><![CDATA[To have a smattering knowledge of anything.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All colors are the friends of their neighbors and the lovers of their opposites. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45135]]></link><description><![CDATA[All colors are the friends of their neighbors and the lovers of their opposites.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45135</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think it's all about wearing horizontal stripes in the right way.

They can't, He said, or they could not live as they are doing. Some of them are so anxious and worried, with all God's care and strength and love to lean against! They cannot know of it, and be so fidgety and nervous as they are. Some of them are afraid. Their consciences have drawn so grim a picture of Him that fearfully they shrink out of His presence, wish there were not God! Frightened of God, with His free and full and eager forgiveness, with His incredible generosity, with His compassionate heart that nobody can sour into illwill, do what he may. And even the best of them are not quite sure. Their faith at most is but a timorous hope, and a trembling perhaps; no more. Often in the Synagogue He had watched them sobbing out their penitential psalms and begging God to turn from anger and be gracious toward them... And it amazed Christ. Look at His sun, He cries, how it streams down in all its midday fullness on the most unworthy, and at the rain, how it falls healingly upon the fields of the least grateful, and how He keeps thrusting His benefits and blessings into the most soiled hands, loading the most impossible people with His kindnesses. If only I could make them see God as He really is: if only they could realize that He is their Father, that what their own child is to them, that, and far more, each of them is to Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7475</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're no longer a doormat, and the guys want to be part of this resurgence.
