It is only when we see things in the light of God that we see what things are really important, and what things are not. These things seem vastly important, things like ambition, and prestige, and money and gain, lose all their value and importance when they are seen in the light of God. Pleasures and habits and social customs which seem permissible enough, are seen for the dangerous things they are when they are seen in the light of God. Things which seem evils, hardship, toil, discipline, unpopularity, even persecution, are seen in their glory when they are seen in the light of God.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7535</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I never expected this type of game in a mid-week contest with Cumberland.

In fact, I believe that this government effort is a fishing expedition that unnecessarily disrupts the normal business operations of resellers and the manufacturers that supply them.

The Bible characterizes men in such a state as "lost", and as being "without hope in the world"... And let no one suppose that such a term as "lost" is merely a bit of conventional theological jargon. It stands for a terrible reality, a reality which modern man in his modern predicament knows only too well from his own bitter experience. It gives rise to the voices of despair which haunt our radios, our newspapers, our fiction and poetry, our stage and screen, our doctors' offices, our hospital wards, our grisly nightmare of atomic war, and the conversation of common people who no sooner meet than they begin to bemoan the fate that has overtaken the world.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7438</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Care must be taken that the punishment does not exceed the offence. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48829]]></link><description><![CDATA[Care must be taken that the punishment does not exceed the offence.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48829</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Obviously, the highest type of efficiency is that which can utilize existing material to the best advantage ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13610]]></link><description><![CDATA[Obviously, the highest type of efficiency is that which can utilize existing material to the best advantage]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13610</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My countrymen should have nerves of steel, muscles of iron, and minds like thunderbolt. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10216]]></link><description><![CDATA[My countrymen should have nerves of steel, muscles of iron, and minds like thunderbolt.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10216</guid></item></channel></rss>
