For prayer is request. The essence of request, as distinct from compulsion, is that it may or may not be granted. And if an infinitely wise Being listens to the requests of finite and foolish creatures, of course He will sometimes grant and sometimes refuse them. Invariable "success" in prayer would not prove the Christian doctrine at all. It would prove something more like magic -- a power in certain human beings to control, or compel, the course of nature.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8521</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Success has a simple formula: do your best, and people may like it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64275]]></link><description><![CDATA[Success has a simple formula: do your best, and people may like it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64275</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/550]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/550</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The critical thing is that no two situations are alike.

I now see godliness is more than the outside and this world's passments and their buskings [i.e., ornaments and fine dress]. Who knoweth the truth of grace without a trial? O how little getteth Christ of us, but that which he winneth (to speak so) with much toil and pains!
