I reply, What if God does not care to have you know it at second-hand? What if there would be no good in that? There is some testimony on record, and perhaps there might be much more were it not that, having to do with things so immediately personal, and generally so delicate, answers to prayer would naturally not often be talked about; but no testimony concerning the thing can well be conclusive; for, like a reported miracle, there is always some way to daff it; and besides, the conviction to be got that way is of little value: it avails nothing to know the thing by the best of evidence... `But if God is so good as you represent Him, and if He knows all that we need, and better far than we do ourselves, why should it be necessary to ask Him for anything?" In answer, What if He knows prayer to be the thing we need first and most? What if the main object in God's idea of prayer be the supplying of our great, our endless need -- the need of Himself? (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we came into this situation ? a hostile environment ? and it allowed our team to really focus, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32356]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think we came into this situation ? a hostile environment ? and it allowed our team to really focus,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32356</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness is too many things these days for anyone lo wish il on anyone lightly.

We don't despise God's name; in fact, we call upon it constantly to justify ourselves... If we object to meat-eating, we declare that God is vegetarian; if we abhor war, we proclaim a pacifist Deity. He who turned water into wine to gladden a wedding it now accused by many of favouring that abominable fluid grape juice. There can hardly be a more evil way of taking God's name in vain than this way of presuming to speak in it. For here is spiritual pride, the ultimate sin, in action -- the sin of believing in one's own righteousness. The true prophet says humbly, "To me, a sinful man, God spoke." But the scribes and Pharisees declare, "When we speak, God agrees." They feel no need of a special revelation, for they are always, in their own view, infallible. It is this self-righteousness of the pious that most breeds atheism, by inspiring all decent, ordinary men with loathing of the enormous lie.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7805</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Write on your doors the saying wise and old, "Be bold! be bold!" and everywhere--"Be bold;  Be not too ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10292]]></link><description><![CDATA[Write on your doors the saying wise and old, "Be bold! be bold!" and everywhere--"Be bold;  Be not too bold!"

Every invention was considered impossible. Every discovery was a nervous shock to some orthodoxy. Every artistic innovation was denounced as fraud and folly. The entire web of culture and "progress," everything on earth that is man-made and not given to us by nature, is the concrete manifestation of some man's refusal to bow to Authority. We would own no more, know no more, and be no more than the first apelike hominids if it were not for the rebellious, the recalcitrant, and the intransigent.
