Oh, Thou didst know that Thy deed would be recorded in books, would be handed down to remote times and the utmost ends of the earth, and Thou didst hope that man, following Thee, would cling to God and not ask for a miracle. But Thou didst not know that when man rejects miracle he rejects God too; for man seeks not so much God as the miraculous. And as man cannot bear to be without the miraculous, he will create new miracles of his own for himself, and will worship deeds of sorcery and witchcraft, though he might be a hundred times over a rebel, heretic and infidel.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60304</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One lesson that we might draw from this incident is that we shouldn't be asking so many questions of jurors. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28729]]></link><description><![CDATA[One lesson that we might draw from this incident is that we shouldn't be asking so many questions of jurors.

It is not humility -- it is petty pride, withholding its simple gifts from the hands of Christ because they are not more pretentious. There are men who would endow colleges, they say, if they were millionaires. They would help in the work of Bible study if they were as gifted as Henry Drummond. They would strive to lead their associates into the Christian life if they had the gifts of Dwight L. Moody. But they are not ready to give what they have and do what they can and be as it has pleased God to make them, in His service -- and that is their condemnation.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Richie is about two weeks from throwing off the mound.
