To possess a high spirit, to behave with proper spirit when used ill -- by which is meant, a quick feeling of injuries, and a promptness in resenting them -- entitles to commendation; and a meek-spirited disposition, the highest Scripture eulogium, expresses ideas of disapprobation and contempt. Vanity and vainglory are suffered without interruption to retain their natural possession of the heart.   ... William Wilberforce, A Practical View  July 31, 2000 Commemoration of Ignatius of Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus, 1556  Jesus used the term abba (which means father or "daddy" in his Aramaic mother tongue), as an address in his prayers to God. There are no other examples of this usage in contemporary Judaism, but Jesus always addressed God in this way. The others perhaps regarded it as child's talk, a form of expression too disrespectful to be so used. But for Jesus, abba expressed the filial intimacy he felt toward his Father. As the divine Son of the Father, Jesus enjoyed a unique relationship with him, and his mission in the world consisted in opening up the blessings of sonship to those who believe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6688</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's great for New England golf fans that the PGA Tour has made Labor Day weekend an annual end-of-summer destination ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30249]]></link><description><![CDATA[It's great for New England golf fans that the PGA Tour has made Labor Day weekend an annual end-of-summer destination at the TPC.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30249</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Be convinced that to be happy means to be free and that to be free means to be brave.

He has called some to be "player-coaches" ... to equip the laity for the ministry they are to fulfill. This equipping ministry is of unique importance. One is appointed to this ministry by the Holy Spirit; therefore it must be undertaken with utmost seriousness. This is a radical departure from the traditional understanding of the roles of the laity and the clergy. The laity had the idea that they were already committed to a "full-time" vocation in the secular world, [and] thus they did not have time -- at least, much time -- to do God's work. Therefore they contributed money to "free" the clergy to have the time needed to fulfill God's ministry. This view is rank heresy. If we follow this pattern, we may continue to do God's work until the Lord comes again and never fulfill God's purpose as it ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6220</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Only little boys and old men sneer at love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4807]]></link><description><![CDATA[Only little boys and old men sneer at love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Without a plan, there's no attack.
