The temptation to institutionalism is always with us, and who will profess himself guiltless? We reduce Christianity to the service of an institution, the Church, for this enables us to be active in what is fondly called "the work of the Lord," while at the same time failing to grapple with the fundamental problem for all Christians, that of winning our generation for Christ. In our little circle of like-minded people we condemn outsiders because they do not come in. Perhaps we even make half-hearted attempts to get them to come in. And then we snuggle down again in the warmth of our fellowship, comforted that we have done all that might reasonably be expected of men in our situation. Fortified with this consolation we concentrate on keeping the institution, the Church, running as it should.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6551</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Too rigid scruples are concealed pride. [Ger., Zu strenge Ford'rung ist verborgner Stolz.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48195]]></link><description><![CDATA[Too rigid scruples are concealed pride. [Ger., Zu strenge Ford'rung ist verborgner Stolz.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48195</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We like to be deceived. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11550]]></link><description><![CDATA[We like to be deceived.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make me what Thou wouldst have me.

I bargain for nothing. I make no terms. I seek for no previous information whither Thou art taking me. I will be what Thou wilt make me, and all that Thou wilt make me. I say not, I will follow Thee whithersoever Thou goest, for I am weak, but I give myself to Thee, to lead me anywhither.   ... John Henry Newman  September 10, 2000   Evangelism is not an option for the Christian life.   ... Luis Palau  September 11, 2000   Lord, behold our family here assembled. We thank Thee for this place in which we dwell; for the love that unites us; for the peace accorded us this day; for the hope with which we expect the morrow; for the health, the work, the food, and the bright skies that make our lives delightful; for our friends in all parts of the earth, and our friendly helpers in this foreign isle [Samoa]... Give us courage, gaiety, and the quiet mind. Spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies. Bless us, if it may be, in all our innocent endeavors. If it may not be, give us the strength to encounter that which is to come, that we be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temperate in wrath, and in all changes of fortune and down to the gates of death, loyal and loving to one another.   ... Robert Louis Stevenson  September 12, 2000   Devotion is the real spiritual sweetness which takes away all bitterness from mortifications, and prevents consolations from disagreeing with the soul; it cures the poor of sadness, and the rich of presumption; it keeps the oppressed from feeling desolate, and the prosperous from insolence: it averts sadness from the lonely, and dissipation from social life; it is as warmth in winter and as refreshing dew in summer; it knows how to abound and how to suffer want, how to profit alike by honour and by contempt; it accepts gladness and sadness with an even mind, and fills men's hearts with a wondrous sweetness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is amazing how nice people are to you when they know you're going away. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42509]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is amazing how nice people are to you when they know you're going away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are men so incorrigibly lazy that no inducement that you can offer will tempt them to work; so eaten ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59077]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are men so incorrigibly lazy that no inducement that you can offer will tempt them to work; so eaten up by vice that virtue is abhorrent to them, and so inveterably dishonest that theft is to them a master passion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/59077</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Contrary to what many people may think, the nation's children are faring better in many respects than they have in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34093]]></link><description><![CDATA[Contrary to what many people may think, the nation's children are faring better in many respects than they have in previous years.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The rovers have proven their value with major discoveries about ancient watery environments on Mars that might have harbored life, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35709]]></link><description><![CDATA[The rovers have proven their value with major discoveries about ancient watery environments on Mars that might have harbored life,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35709</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Get dealt a set of cards in life, and just deal with them........no problem. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31358]]></link><description><![CDATA[Get dealt a set of cards in life, and just deal with them........no problem.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The program is having an impact on our young community. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31171]]></link><description><![CDATA[The program is having an impact on our young community.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is to be acknowledged that many passages in the Bible are abstruse, and not to be easily understood.

And this is as much to secure men from mistake in matters of belief as God hath afforded to keep men from sin in matters of practice. He hath made no effectual and infallible provision that men shall not sin; and yet it would puzzle any man to give a good reason why God should take more care to secure men against errors in belief than against sin and wickedness in their lives.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes the best thing you can do is not think, not wonder, not imagine, not obsess.
