Richard Chevenix Trench  April 8, 2000 Commemoration of William Augustus Muhlenberg of New York, Priest, 1877  It is the recognition of this divine necessity -- not to forgive, but to forgive in a way which shows that God is irreconcilable to evil, and can never treat it as other or less than it is -- it is the recognition of this divine necessity, or the failure to recognise it, which ultimately divides interpreters of Christianity into evangelical and non-evangelical, those who are true to the New Testament and those who cannot digest it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7867</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am pleased to return to finish the job that is undone, ...

Tell Him your troubles, that He may comfort you; tell Him your joys, that He may sober them; tell Him your longings, that He may purify them; tell Him your dislikes, that He may help you conquer them; talk to Him of your temptations, that He may shield you from them: show Him the wounds of your heart, that He may heal them; lay bare your indifference to good, your depraved tastes for evil, your instability. Tell Him how self-love makes you unjust to others, how vanity tempts you to be insincere, how pride disguises you to yourself and others.  If you thus pour out all your weaknesses, needs, troubles, there will be no lack of what to say. You will never exhaust the subject. It is continually being renewed. People who have no secrets from each other never want for subjects of conversation. They do not weigh their words, for there is nothing to be held back; neither do they seek for something to say. They talk out of the abundance of the heart, without consideration they say just what they think. Blessed are they who attain to such familiar, unreserved intercourse with God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Those who plot the destruction of others often fall themselves. [Lat., Saepe intereunt aliis meditantes necem.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50853]]></link><description><![CDATA[Those who plot the destruction of others often fall themselves. [Lat., Saepe intereunt aliis meditantes necem.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50853</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She's invaluable.
