But then I thought he had a good chance at winning this match; I didn't think it was that big of an upset because he's a good little wrestler. I don't remember anyone ever beating him.

Only he who lives by the forgiveness of his sin in Jesus Christ will rightly think little of himself. He will know that his own wisdom reached the end of its tether when Jesus forgave him. He will know that it is good for his own will to be broken in the encounter with his neighbor...   But not only my neighbor's will, but also his honor is more important than mine. The desire for one's own honor hinders faith. One who seeks his own honor is no longer seeking God and his neighbor. What does it matter if I suffer injustice? Would I not have deserved even worse punishment from God, if He had not dealt with me according to His mercy?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8606</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Good temper is one of the greatest preservers of the features. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58851]]></link><description><![CDATA[Good temper is one of the greatest preservers of the features.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58851</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are apt to overlook the hand and heart of God in our afflictions, and to consider them as mere ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7613]]></link><description><![CDATA[We are apt to overlook the hand and heart of God in our afflictions, and to consider them as mere accidents, and unavoidable evils.

In the bedroom you grew up in. It's the only place on this entire planet that is yours. The only place on the planet that understands you. It understands the way your nerves flare everytime you think about talking to anyone, scared into shyness at the thought of opening your mouth but the way you are the best hypocrite around when you're in front of a microphone. It knows what turns that switch on and off and on again. It understands the way when you don't have a smile on your face everyone only spits: "what's wrong"s and "you look tired"s. So the way you keep it on your face just wide enough to avoid questions. It understands how neurotic you have become, the way you treat your flaws like old friends. The way you look in the mirror and think of yourself as "Mr. Misery"...]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18372</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The idea of masculinity has now been commercialized.
