This method, though it seem such a small circumstance of life, would in all probability be a means [toward] great piety. It would keep it constantly in your head that softness and idleness were to be avoided and that self-denial was a part of Christianity... It would teach you to exercise power over yourself, and make you able by degrees to renounce other pleasures and tempers that war against the soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7383</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's special from the fact Sarah stuck with basketball, knowing she is not going to play a lot.

(2) The glorifying of God is the great work of God's children. (3) Delightful privacy with God argues strong affection. (4) Frequent prayer an argument of much of God's Spirit; true prayer is the pouring out of the heart to God; God's children are most in private with God; the prayers of God's people most respect spiritual mercies; God's people wait for and rest in God's answer. (5) God's people are sensible of their unworthiness. (6) God Himself is regarded as the portion of His people. (7) Ready obedience to God. (8) The patience of God's children under God's hand. (9) The mournful confession of God's people. (10) God's people long after God in an open profession of His ordinances. (11) Their hearts are ready and prepared. (12) God's people's sense of their own insufficiencies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7358</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Example is the best precept. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57102]]></link><description><![CDATA[Example is the best precept.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57102</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[...there is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47337]]></link><description><![CDATA[...there is no glory in battle worth the blood it costs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47337</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ascetic believed that, because he was so holy, the Devil was permitted special liberties with him, and he found ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7934]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ascetic believed that, because he was so holy, the Devil was permitted special liberties with him, and he found in his increasing agony of effort a token of divine approval. Not along this track lies the path of moral progress. Christianity says: face the evil once for all, and disown it. Then quiet the spirit in the presence of God. Let His perfections fill the field of vision. In particular, let the concrete embodiment of the goodness of God in Christ attract and absorb the gaze of the soul. Here is the righteousness, not as a fixed and abstract ideal, but in a living human person. The righteousness of Christ is a real achievement of God's own Spirit in man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing on earth is so well-suited to make the sad merry, the merry sad, to give courage to the despairing, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13111]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing on earth is so well-suited to make the sad merry, the merry sad, to give courage to the despairing, to make the proud humble, to lessen envy and hate, as music]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13111</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When we once begin to form good resolutions, God gives us every opportunity of carrying them out. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6407]]></link><description><![CDATA[When we once begin to form good resolutions, God gives us every opportunity of carrying them out.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6407</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Really great people make you feel that you, too, can become great. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12837]]></link><description><![CDATA[Really great people make you feel that you, too, can become great.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12837</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Out of respect to Betty we couldn't think of a more appropriate name. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37466]]></link><description><![CDATA[Out of respect to Betty we couldn't think of a more appropriate name.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37466</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To him that watches, everything is revealed. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44791]]></link><description><![CDATA[To him that watches, everything is revealed.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44791</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What is a normal childhood?
