The Gospel is full of divine attempts to help and heal, in the body, mind and heart, individual men. The completed beauty of Christ's life is only the added beauty of little inconspicuous acts of beauty -- talking with the woman at the well; going far up into the North country to talk with the Syrophenician woman; showing the young ruler the stealthy ambition laid away in his heart, that kept him out of the kingdom of Heaven; shedding a tear at the grave of Lazarus; teaching a little knot of followers how to pray; preaching the Gospel one Sunday afternoon to two disciples going out to Emmaus; kindling a fire and broiling fish, that His disciples might have a breakfast waiting for them when they came ashore after a night of fishing, cold, tired, discouraged. All of these things, you see, let us in so easily into the real quality and tone of God's interests, so specific, so narrowed down, so enlisted in what is small, so engrossed in what is minute.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured with what is right in America. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47426]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is nothing wrong with America that cannot be cured with what is right in America.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Singletary and Reynolds score half of their points, so we knew they were the key to their victories every night. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28586]]></link><description><![CDATA[Singletary and Reynolds score half of their points, so we knew they were the key to their victories every night.
