I ought not to neglect anything or be passionately vehement about anything, for it is dangerous to do the work of the Lord negligently, on the one hand; or, on the other, to appropriate it to ourselves by self-love and false zeal. In this latter case, our actions arise from a principle of self-will: we are eager and anxious for the success, and that under the pretense of seeking the glory of God. O, God, grant me Thy grace to enable me to be faithful in action and resigned in success! My only business is to do Thy will, and to do it as Thy will, not forgetting Thee in the performance of it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7537</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[While final figures on the number of people in need of urgent assistance are still being established, donors must respond ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36563]]></link><description><![CDATA[While final figures on the number of people in need of urgent assistance are still being established, donors must respond now if we are going to avert a humanitarian catastrophe.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There have been lots of players in history that have had a combination of skill and scoring ability and the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/39657]]></link><description><![CDATA[There have been lots of players in history that have had a combination of skill and scoring ability and the ability to grind it out and play a physical way.
