When, through the operation of such laws, surprising events take place, [we may] cry out, ... "Such is the will of God," instead of setting ourselves to inquire whether it is the will of God to give us power to bring about or prevent such results; then our conduct is not piety but sinful laziness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something.

"I do not envy those who have to fight the battle of Christianity in the twentieth century," wrote Marcus Dods. "Yes, perhaps I do; but it will be a stiff fight." Of course, he did, and anybody with his valiant spirit would. There was a day when our Lord passed through cheering streets wildly enthusiastic; and another day when He watched the crowds deserting Him, till even the disciples themselves seemed to be withering, and He looked at them sadly. "Will you also go away?" He said. And Peter strode across the sudden empty spaces widening around Him, and put his back to Christ's. "No", he cried; "there are two of us, at least", and faced the world, Christ's poor minority of one. I would rather have been Peter than one of the shouting mob. And today, perhaps, we may get our chance of that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7500</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The future belongs to those who prepare for it today. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17117]]></link><description><![CDATA[The future belongs to those who prepare for it today.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17117</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It's really encouraging to be around people who are so influenced by music.
