The passage of Scripture which subdued and controlled my mind was this, "The servant of the Lord must not strive." It was painful indeed to see the church, with the exception of the aisles, almost forsaken; but I thought that if God would only give a double blessing to the congregation that did attend, there would on the whole be as much good done as if the congregation were doubled and the blessing limited to only half the amount.

It reminds us that if passion dies or is denied, we are partly dead and that soon, come what may, we will be wholly so.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2170</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is a long preparation for something that never happens. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24967]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is a long preparation for something that never happens.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24967</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['T is my vocation, Hal; 't is no sin for a man to labour in his vocation. -King Henry IV. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/55838]]></link><description><![CDATA['T is my vocation, Hal; 't is no sin for a man to labour in his vocation. -King Henry IV.
