And we are ever saying, "That be far from Thee, Lord!" We are careful, in our unbelief, over the divine dignity, of which He is too grand to think. Better pleasing to God ... is the audacity of Job, who, rushing into His presence, and flinging the door of His presence-chamber to the wall, like a troubled -- it may be angry -- but yet faithful child, calls aloud in the ear of Him whose perfect Fatherhood he has yet to learn, "Am I a sea or a whale, that Thou settest a watch over me?"... The devotion of God to His creatures is perfect; He does not think about Himself, but about them; He wants nothing for Himself, but finds His blessedness in the outgoing of blessedness. Ah! it is a terrible -- shall it be a lonely glory, this? We will draw near with our human response, our abandonment of self in the faith of Jesus. He Lives Himself to us -- shall we not give ourselves to Him? Shall we not give ourselves to each other whom He loves?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8215</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no exemption for Germany, and we will consider the case, as well as the French case, later, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38000]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no exemption for Germany, and we will consider the case, as well as the French case, later,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38000</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a good example of a very good, productive partnership. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30104]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a good example of a very good, productive partnership.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30104</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Twas his ambition, generous and great A life to life's great end to consecrate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61253]]></link><description><![CDATA['Twas his ambition, generous and great A life to life's great end to consecrate.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61253</guid></item></channel></rss>
