He held that all annoyances, frustrations, disappointments, mishaps, discomforts, hardships, sorrows, pains, and even final disaster iteself, are simply God's way of teaching us lessons that we could never else learn. That circumstances do not matter, are nothing, but that the response of the spirit that meets them is everything; that there is no situation in human life, however apparently adverse, nor any human relationship, however apparently uncongenial, that cannot be made, if God be in the heart, into a thing of perfect joy; that, in order to attain this ultimate perfection, one must accept every experience and learn to love all persons... that the worth of life is is not to be measured by its results in achievement or success, but solely by the motives of the heart and the efforts of one's will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7050</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we're a decent basketball team.

Inner feelings of rage soon spill over into all aspects of society. Social stress multiplies daily with every new report of political upheaval, child abuse, drug abuse, workplace violence, children bringing guns to school, homelessness, ethnic wars or some other crisis. The root cause of a lot of these social stresses is the inner violence created by dysfunctional communication between the heart and the mind. As social stress increases, we're faced with a choice: Retreat into fear and isolation, become angry and bitter, try to ignore it all, or take responsibility for our own stress reactions.

Surrendering your head to your heart in those moments will lead you to balance and fulfillment. As you listen to your spirit, peace follows. So follow your spirit. Build your foundation in your heart. Love must be your innermost and spontaneous response towards every person you encounter. Say to yourself inside, "I just love." Use these words as a key to start the engine running in your heart and watch life brighten with new love and understanding. Surrender to your new awareness and let love unfold the purpose of creation to you. -Sara Paddison.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58384</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you have much, give of your wealth; If you have little, give of your heart ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17492]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you have much, give of your wealth; If you have little, give of your heart]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Continued from yesterday]  4.

When the church finds its members falling into gross and scandalous sins, then it is time for the church to awake and cry to God for a Revival of Religion. When such things are taking place as give enemies of religion an occasion for reproach, it is time for the church to ask God, "What will become of Thy great name?"  5. When there is a spirit of controversy in the church or in the land, a revival is needful. The spirit of religion is not the spirit of controversy. There can be no prosperity in religion, where the spirit of controversy prevails.  6. When the wicked triumph over the church, and revile them, it is time to seek for a Revival of Religion.  7. When sinners are careless and stupid, and sinking into hell unconcerned, it is time the church should bestir themselves. It is as much the duty of the church to awake, as it is for the firemen to awake when a fire breaks out in the night in a great city. The church ought to put out the fires of hell which are laying hold of the wicked. Sleep! Should the firemen sleep, and let the whole city burn down, what would be thought of such firemen? And yet their guilt would not compare with the guilt of Christians who sleep while sinners around them are sinking stupid into the fires of hell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We have been pretty fortunate...we do quite a bit of training on driving and how you should be driving and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33776]]></link><description><![CDATA[We have been pretty fortunate...we do quite a bit of training on driving and how you should be driving and things like that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33776</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men after death are understood worse than men of the present, but heard better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19534]]></link><description><![CDATA[Men after death are understood worse than men of the present, but heard better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/19534</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dentists are incapable of asking questions that require a simple yes or no answer ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11909]]></link><description><![CDATA[Dentists are incapable of asking questions that require a simple yes or no answer]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11909</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be aware how fruitful the playful mood can be is to be immune to the propaganda of the alienated, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52259]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be aware how fruitful the playful mood can be is to be immune to the propaganda of the alienated, which extols resentment as a fuel of achievement.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52259</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Mary Magdalen, Apostle to the Apostles  When our lives are focused on God, awe and wonder lead ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6686]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Mary Magdalen, Apostle to the Apostles  When our lives are focused on God, awe and wonder lead us to worship God, filling our inner being with a fullness we would never have thought possible.
