Whatever need or trouble you are in, there is always something to help you in your Bible, if only you go on reading till you come to the word God specially has for you. I have noticed this often. Sometimes the special word is in the portion you would naturally read, or in the Psalm for the day, ... but you must go on till you find it, for it is always somewhere.

Within the wide bounds of the Christian Church there is abundant scope for the multiplicity of races, languages, and social conditions; room also for separate organizations with different traditions of faith and order, and much diversity of operation. But there is no room for strife or hostility, for pride or selfassertion, for exclusiveness or unkind judgments, nor for that kind of independence which leads men to ignore their fellowship with the great company of believers, the communion of saints. These things are contrary to the revealed will of God, and should be made at once to cease. As these disappear, the outward manifestation of unity will come in such ways as the Spirit of God shall guide.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6985</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[One's outlook is a part of his virtue. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60761]]></link><description><![CDATA[One's outlook is a part of his virtue.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60761</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Who dainties love shall beggars prove. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48980]]></link><description><![CDATA[Who dainties love shall beggars prove.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48980</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65471]]></link><description><![CDATA[Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/65471</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The science of the mind can only have for its proper goal the understanding of human nature by every human ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28877]]></link><description><![CDATA[The science of the mind can only have for its proper goal the understanding of human nature by every human being, and through its use, brings peace to every human soul.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28877</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O how quickly passes away the glory of the earth. [Lat., O quam cito transit gloria mundi.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17548]]></link><description><![CDATA[O how quickly passes away the glory of the earth. [Lat., O quam cito transit gloria mundi.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/17548</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I wish the crowd to feel itself well treated, Especially since it lives and lets me live.  [Ger., Ich ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52467]]></link><description><![CDATA[I wish the crowd to feel itself well treated, Especially since it lives and lets me live.  [Ger., Ich wunschte sehr, der Menge zu behagen,   Besonders weil sie lebt und leben lasst.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52467</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is a situation of chaos in the military line of command. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40297]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is a situation of chaos in the military line of command.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Distrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52569]]></link><description><![CDATA[Distrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stupid is as stupid does. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1124]]></link><description><![CDATA[Stupid is as stupid does.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1124</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That's why many fail-because they don't get started-they don't go.
