If they clamor for freedom, it is but freedom to establish equality and uniformity. The passion for equality is partly a passion for anonymity: to be one thread of the many which make up a tunic; one thread not distinguishable from the others. No one can then point us out, measure us against others and expose our inferiority.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pray Him to give you what the Scriptures call "an honest and good heart," or "a perfect heart;" and, without ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7216]]></link><description><![CDATA[Pray Him to give you what the Scriptures call "an honest and good heart," or "a perfect heart;" and, without waiting, begin at once to obey Him with the best heart you have. Any obedience is better than none. You have to seek His face; obedience is the only way of seeing Him. All your duties are obediences. To do what He bids is to obey Him, and to obey Him is to approach Him. Every act of obedience is an approach -- an approach to Him who is not far off, though He seems so, but close behind this visible screen of things hiding Him from us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Losing doesn't eat at me the way it used to.

There was none of the indeterminate, inconclusive talking which we are apt to describe as "sowing the seed". Our idea of sowing the seed seems to be rather like scattering wheat out of a balloon... Occasionally, of course, grains of wheat scattered out of a balloon will fall upon ploughed and fertile land and will spring up and bear fruit; but it is a casual method of sowing. Paul did not scatter seeds, he planted. He so dealt with his hearers that he brought them speedily and directly to a point of decision, and then he demanded of them that they should make a choice and act on their choice. In this way he kept the moral issue clearly before them, and made them realize that his preaching was not merely a novel and interesting doctrine, but a life. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1217]]></link><description><![CDATA[The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1217</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A man's best things are nearest him, Lie close about his feet. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4319]]></link><description><![CDATA[A man's best things are nearest him, Lie close about his feet.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4319</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61537]]></link><description><![CDATA[All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61537</guid></item></channel></rss>
