And what He does is to come to each soul partaking in the Sacrament and to assure it that He stands to the best and biggest of His promises and to the fullness of His grace in Christ... de-universalizes the Scriptures and individualizes them, makes them a personal promise, couched no longer in general terms but offered to very you and very me, as individually as if they covered no other but referred to you and me alone. We may be cold and dead and unresponsive. None the less, something happens in the Sacrament. For God stands to His side of the Covenant, whether we stand to ours or not.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you'll understand what little chance you have in trying to change ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5477]]></link><description><![CDATA[Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you'll understand what little chance you have in trying to change others.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5477</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the arithmetic of sounds as optics is the geometry of light. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17378]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the arithmetic of sounds as optics is the geometry of light.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17378</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A third Cato has dropped from the skies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50424]]></link><description><![CDATA[A third Cato has dropped from the skies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50424</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The face of a lover is an unknown, precisely because it is invested with so much of oneself.

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[There is no one giant step that does it.
