The one only and infallible way to go safely through all the difficulties, trials, temptations, dryness, or opposition of our own evil tempers is this: It is to expect nothing from ourselves, to trust to nothing in ourselves, but in everything to expect and depend upon God for relief. Keep fast hold of this thread, and then let your way be what it will -- darkness, temptation, or the rebellion of nature -- you will be led through it all, to an union with God: for nothing hurts us in any state but an expectation of some thing in it and from it, which we should only expect from God.

And here and there in the New Testament, we blunder in on Christ and find Him on His knees; and, once at least, ere we can escape, cannot but overhear Him pleading our names. "Neither pray I for these alone," that is, for Peter and John and the rest, "but for those who will believe through them"-- that is, for you and me. Hush! the Lord Christ is praying for you! And what is it He asks for us? That we be given such a spirit of unity and brotherliness and Christlikeness that people, coming upon us, will look at us, and look again, and then from us to Jesus Christ, seeking the explanation of us there.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The 'Net is a waste of time, and that's exactly what's right about it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9493]]></link><description><![CDATA[The 'Net is a waste of time, and that's exactly what's right about it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9493</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not treasured wealth, nor the consul's lictor, can dispel the mind's bitter conflicts and the cares that flit, like bats, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not treasured wealth, nor the consul's lictor, can dispel the mind's bitter conflicts and the cares that flit, like bats, about your fretted roofs.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The heart must be kept tender and pliable; otherwise agnosticism converts to skepticism.
