Yet people attempt to evade His statement. Generally speaking, these are the very people who are the quickest in laying the blame upon God for all the sorrow and sin in the world. They argue that He could prevent it. They excuse their own do-nothing attitude by making of evil's apparent predominance a ground for doubt of His loving kindness. It never seems to occur to them to look for the cause in mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6638</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Philip & James, Apostles I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  Not borne on ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7571]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Philip & James, Apostles I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  Not borne on morning wings  Of majesty, but I have set My Feet  Amidst the delicate and bladed wheat  That springs triumphant in the furrowed sod.  There do I dwell, in weakness and in power;  Not broken or divided, saith our God!  In your strait garden plot I come to flowers  About your porch My Vine,  Meek, fruitful, doth entwine;  Waits, at the threshold, Love's appointed hour. I come in the little things, Saith the Lord: Yea! on the glancing wings Of eager birds, the softly pattering feet Of furred and gentle beasts, I come to meet Your hear and wayward heart. In brown bright eyes That peep from out the brake, I stand confest. On every nest Where feathery Patience is content to brood And leaves her pleasure for the high emprize Of motherhood -- There doth My Godhead rest. I come in the little things,  Saith the Lord:  My starry wings I do forsake,  Love's highway of humility to take:  Meekly I fit my stature to your need.  In beggar's part  About your gates I shall not cease to plead -- As man, to speak with man -- Till by such art  I shall achieve My Immemorial Plan,  Pass the low lintel of the human heart.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7571</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The kids came out from the beginning and took care of business.
