Now there is something in our natural selves that may well make us wary of such a contact. The man who in his heart intends to go on being selfish or proud, or who has already decided how far his Christian convictions should carry him, is probably obeying a sound instinct when he keeps away from this glorious but perilous Sacrament. For, if the truth be told, men are often willing to put their trust in a god who in the end must be triumphant, simply because they want to be on the winning side; but they are not nearly so ready to bear any part of the cost of that winning. Yet the fellowship of the broken bread and the poured-out wine can mean no less than that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Holy Saturday Commemoration of Albrecht Dürer, artist, 1528, and Michelangelo Buonarrotti, artist, spiritual writer, 1564   (1) God's children ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Holy Saturday Commemoration of Albrecht Dürer, artist, 1528, and Michelangelo Buonarrotti, artist, spiritual writer, 1564   (1) God's children ought to walk in constant amazement of spirit as to God, His nature, and works. (2) The glorifying of God is the great work of God's children. (3) Delightful privacy with God argues strong affection. (4) Frequent prayer an argument of much of God's Spirit; true prayer is the pouring out of the heart to God; God's children are most in private with God; the prayers of God's people most respect spiritual mercies; God's people wait for and rest in God's answer. (5) God's people are sensible of their unworthiness. (6) God Himself is regarded as the portion of His people. (7) Ready obedience to God. (8) The patience of God's children under God's hand. (9) The mournful confession of God's people. (10) God's people long after God in an open profession of His ordinances. (11) Their hearts are ready and prepared. (12) God's people's sense of their own insufficiencies.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Maybe our favorite quotations say more about us than about the stories and people we're quoting. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66003]]></link><description><![CDATA[Maybe our favorite quotations say more about us than about the stories and people we're quoting.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66003</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time; as aromatic wine it seemed, on swallowing, warm and racy: ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Something of vengeance I had tasted for the first time; as aromatic wine it seemed, on swallowing, warm and racy: its after-flavor, metallic and corroding, gave me a sensation as if I had been poisoned.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People who enjoy what they are doing invariably do it well. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22278]]></link><description><![CDATA[People who enjoy what they are doing invariably do it well.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/22278</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lean too much on the approval of people, and it becomes a bed of thorns ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2968]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lean too much on the approval of people, and it becomes a bed of thorns]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2968</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So you think that money is the root of all evil.

But if the other members also have sinned, why should they not fast, too... Let the eye fast from strange sights and from every wantonness, so that that which roamed in freedom in fault-doing may, abundantly humbled, be checked by penitence. Let the ear, blameably eager to listen, fast from tales and rumors, and from whatsoever is of idle import, and tendeth least to salvation. Let the tongue fast from slanders and murmurings, and from useless, vain, and scurrilous words, and sometimes also, in the seriousness of silence, even from things which may seem of essential import. Let the hand abstain from ... all toils which are not imperatively necessary. But also let the soul herself abstain from all evils and from acting out her own will. For without such abstinence the other things find no favor with the Lord.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If a man works like a horse for his money, there are a lot of girls anxious to take him ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2029]]></link><description><![CDATA[If a man works like a horse for his money, there are a lot of girls anxious to take him down the bridal path.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/2029</guid></item></channel></rss>
