The Christian's faith in Christ is trust in a Living Person, once crucified, dead, and buried, and now living forevermore. Call it, if you will, an assumption that ends as an assurance, or an experiment that ends as an experience, Christian faith is in fact a commitment that ends as a communion.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6342</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was a pilot flying an airplane and it just so happened that where I was flying made what I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1977]]></link><description><![CDATA[I was a pilot flying an airplane and it just so happened that where I was flying made what I was doing spying.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who so loves believes the impossible. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25678]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who so loves believes the impossible.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25678</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Brigid, Abbess of Kildare, c.525  We should not draw too sharp a distinction between this "barren land" ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6531]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Brigid, Abbess of Kildare, c.525  We should not draw too sharp a distinction between this "barren land" or "wilderness" of our pilgrimage, and the sweet home that God has prepared. We all know the changes and chances of this troublous life; but we can also know in this vale of tears the healthful spirit of His grace. Health for the whole man is God's gracious purpose for us here and now, often frustrated, often prevented by unbelief. The life of the saints in light must not emphasize for us simply the contrast between their state and ours, but rather the beginning of the gift of eternal life and all its benefits of inner strength and peace amid earthly vicissitudes. .]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wars can be prevented just as surely as they can be provoked, and wewho fail to prevent them must share ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21962]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wars can be prevented just as surely as they can be provoked, and wewho fail to prevent them must share in the guilt for the dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/21962</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Grudge no expense -- yield to no opposition -- forget fatigue -- till, by the strength of prayer and sacrifice, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15420]]></link><description><![CDATA[Grudge no expense -- yield to no opposition -- forget fatigue -- till, by the strength of prayer and sacrifice, the spirit of love shall have overcome . . .]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/15420</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Our country is the world--our countrymen are mankind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10231]]></link><description><![CDATA[Our country is the world--our countrymen are mankind.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10231</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We refused to assume - one of the central obligations of parenthood: to make ourselves the final authority on good ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44752]]></link><description><![CDATA[We refused to assume - one of the central obligations of parenthood: to make ourselves the final authority on good and bad, right and wrong, and to take the consequences of what might turn out to be a lifetime battle]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44752</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51430]]></link><description><![CDATA[Some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51430</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yet soon fair Spring shall give another scene. And yellow cowslips gild the level green. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10534]]></link><description><![CDATA[Yet soon fair Spring shall give another scene. And yellow cowslips gild the level green.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men have more consideration for themselves than for others. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51733]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men have more consideration for themselves than for others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/51733</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shallows where a lamb could wade and depths where an elephant would drown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54912]]></link><description><![CDATA[Shallows where a lamb could wade and depths where an elephant would drown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54912</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14328]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing baffles the schemes of evil people so much as the calm composure of great souls.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virtue is a sure anchor. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60797]]></link><description><![CDATA[Virtue is a sure anchor.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60797</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Discontent is likely to be highest when misery is bearable; when conditions have so improved that an ideal state seems ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47602]]></link><description><![CDATA[Discontent is likely to be highest when misery is bearable; when conditions have so improved that an ideal state seems almost within reach. A grievance is most poignant when almost redressed. De Tocqueville in his researches into the state of society in France before the revolution was struck by the discovery that "in no one of the periods which have followed the Revolution of 1789 has the national prosperity of France augmented more rapidly than it did in the twenty years preceding that event." He is forced to conclude that "the French found their position the more intolerable the better it became.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Communication works for those who work at it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9042]]></link><description><![CDATA[Communication works for those who work at it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9042</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What some invent the rest enlarge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54560]]></link><description><![CDATA[What some invent the rest enlarge.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54560</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We need to speak to the Greens and the FDP in the next few days.
