In these days when power and size and speed are almost universally admired, it seems to me particularly important to study afresh the "weakness", the "smallness of entry", and the "slowness" of God as He begins His vast work of reconstructing His disordered world. We are all tempted to take short cuts, to work for quick results, and to evade painful sacrifice. It is therefore essential that we should look again at love incarnate in a human being, to see God Himself at work within the limitations of human personality, and to base our methods on what we see Him do.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All of the men on my staff can type. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27038]]></link><description><![CDATA[All of the men on my staff can type.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think you're seeing chaos, basically.

It was unkind to speak to men like this, for such a cheap offer could only leave them bewildered and tempt them from the way to which they had been called by Christ. Having laid hold on cheap grace, they were barred forever from the knowledge of costly grace. Deceived and weakened, men felt that they were strong now that they were in possession of this cheap grace -- whereas they had in fact lost the power to live the life of discipleship and obedience. The word of cheap grace has been the ruin of more Christians than any commandment of works.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8581</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is an exciting time for the Rockets.
