And we have seen how rapidly they develop their own forms, their own structures of thought, of language, and of organisation. It would surely be a very unbiblical view of human nature and history to think -- as we so often, in our pagan way, do -- that this is just an example of the tendency of all things to slide down from a golden age to an age of iron, to identify the spiritual with the disembodied, and to regard visible structure as equivalent to sin. We must rather recognise here a testimony to the fact that Christianity is, in its very heart and essence, not a disembodied spirituality, but life in a visible fellowship, a life which makes such total claim upon us, and so engages our total powers, that nothing less than the closest and most binding association of men with one another can serve its purpose.  ... Lesslie Newbigin, The Household of God February 2, 2000 THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE  Persons that are well affected to religion, that receive instructions of piety with pleasure and satisfaction, often wonder how it comes to pass that they make no greater progress in that religion which they so much admire. Now the reason of it is this: it is because religion lives only in their head, but something else has possession of their heart; and therefore they continue from year to year mere admirers and praisers of piety, without ever coming up to the reality and perfection of its precepts.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7277</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you 'll start having positive results. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64959]]></link><description><![CDATA[Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you 'll start having positive results.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64959</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Going in, I knew I wasn't one of the top ones, because I didn't even make the pre-season All-American team. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/41471]]></link><description><![CDATA[Going in, I knew I wasn't one of the top ones, because I didn't even make the pre-season All-American team.

Half of the secular unrest and dismal, profane sadness of modern society comes from the vain idea that every man is bound to be a critic of life, and to let no day pass without finding some fault with the general order of things, or projecting some plan for its general improvement. And the other half comes from the greedy notion that a man's life does consist, after all, in the abundance of things that he possesseth, and that it is, somehow or other, more respectable and pious to be always at work trying to make a larger living, than it is to lie on your back in the green pastures and beside the still waters, and thank God that you are alive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Miracles seem to rest, not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46081]]></link><description><![CDATA[Miracles seem to rest, not so much upon faces or voices or healing power coming suddenly near to us from far off, but upon our perceptions being made finer so that for a moment our eyes can see and our ears can hear that which is about us always. -Willa Cather.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46081</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had a case confirmed yesterday which reaffirms there has been regular exposure of Somalia to the virus, probably from ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30812]]></link><description><![CDATA[We had a case confirmed yesterday which reaffirms there has been regular exposure of Somalia to the virus, probably from Yemen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30812</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They always say, 'Smile!' and sometimes that just ticks me off.
