Any attempts to hide behind the excuse that it is too difficult, when what we mean is that its word is too hard for us to bear, meets the just remark of a pastor from Communist Germany: "How can they say that the Bible is difficult, when young Communists are poring over much more difficult and much more technical literature to discover what Communism is all about?"

Thank God! Though, indeed, it is not easy to say that, with honesty. Still, it may never come at all, thank God. But if you have attained as far as Epictetus--pagan though you would call him--whose daily prayer was this: "O God, give me what Thou desirest for me, for I know that what Thou choosest for me is far better than I could choose"; if you are not bleating to get off, but asking to be given grace and strength to see this through with honour, "the very day" you pray that prayer, the answer always comes.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Old April wanes, and her last dewy morn Her death-bed steeps in tears; to hail the May  New blooming ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2978]]></link><description><![CDATA[Old April wanes, and her last dewy morn Her death-bed steeps in tears; to hail the May  New blooming blossoms 'neath the sun are born,   And all poor April's charms are swept away.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2978</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The primary goal of a vendor is to make money. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64344]]></link><description><![CDATA[The primary goal of a vendor is to make money.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64344</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The press, like fire, is an excellent servant, but a terrible master. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23351]]></link><description><![CDATA[The press, like fire, is an excellent servant, but a terrible master.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23351</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sweetest the strain when in the song The singer has been lost. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56474]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sweetest the strain when in the song The singer has been lost.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56474</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3438]]></link><description><![CDATA[Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3438</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How many things served us yesterday for articles of faith, which to-day are fables to us! [Fr., Combien de choses ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14981]]></link><description><![CDATA[How many things served us yesterday for articles of faith, which to-day are fables to us! [Fr., Combien de choses nous servoient heir d'articles de foy, qui nous sont fables aujourd'hui!]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14981</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Survival is nothing more than recovery. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58392]]></link><description><![CDATA[Survival is nothing more than recovery.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58392</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that seeks popularity in art closes the door on his own genius: as he must needs paint for other ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45422]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that seeks popularity in art closes the door on his own genius: as he must needs paint for other minds, and not for his own.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/45422</guid></item></channel></rss>
