Work done conscientiously by the Christian is his share in Christ's service; but it is Christ's service, and therefore the Christian need neither be proud because it has succeeded or overwhelmed because it has failed. The service of Christ is supremely expressed in the apparent failure of the Cross.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Their eyes seem'd rings from whence the gems were gone. [It., Parean l'occhiaje anella senza gemme.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14836]]></link><description><![CDATA[Their eyes seem'd rings from whence the gems were gone. [It., Parean l'occhiaje anella senza gemme.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14836</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reason lies betweene the spurre and the bridle. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49728]]></link><description><![CDATA[Reason lies betweene the spurre and the bridle.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/49728</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The way they're so proper. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39282]]></link><description><![CDATA[The way they're so proper.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We've been working on getting balanced scoring.
