If he have not the true God to bless and sustain him, he will have some false god to delude and to betray him. The Psalmist knew this, and therefore he joined so closely forgetting the name of our God and holding up our hands to some strange god. For every man has something in which he hopes, on which he leans, to which he retreats and retires, with which he fills up his thoughts in empty spaces of time, when he is alone, when he lies sleepless on his bed, when he is not pressed with other thoughts; to which he betakes himself in sorrow or trouble, as that from which he shall draw comfort and strength -- his fortress, his citadel, his defence; and has not this a good right to be called his god? Man was made to lean on the Creator; but if not on Him, then he leans on the creature in one shape or another. The ivy cannot grow alone: it must twine round some support or other; if not the goodly oak, then the ragged thorn -- round any dead stick whatever, rather than have no stay or support at all. It is even so with the heart and affections of man; if they do not twine around God, they must twine around some meaner thing.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6647</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/58495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For the army is a school in which the miser becomes generous, and the generous prodigal; miserly soldiers are like ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57143]]></link><description><![CDATA[For the army is a school in which the miser becomes generous, and the generous prodigal; miserly soldiers are like monsters, but very rarely seen.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57143</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10001]]></link><description><![CDATA[Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10001</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything was as normal as could be for something like this, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32330]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything was as normal as could be for something like this,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/32330</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is so firmly believed as what we least know. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4096]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is so firmly believed as what we least know.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/4096</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46047]]></link><description><![CDATA[Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46047</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I thought we did a good job stopping their perimeter shooting.

David Bronnert, who was quoted in CQOD at the beginning of the month, has kindly sent me the following meditation taken from the church magazine of St. John's Church, Southall, in London, where he serves as vicar, living out, under God, the previous quotation he wrote thirty years ago. I am grateful to brother David for sending me this timely teaching so that I could present it to you. The light shines in the darkness   Candles are always popular for giving a warm romantic glow and this time of year they are to be seen on many different occasions. Of course a candle is easy to blow out! So much so that its flickering light was chosen by Shakespeare as a picture of the transitory nature of life. Out out brief candle!   Darkness is a reminder of evil, for it is in the darkness that people get lost, stumble and fall. It is in the darkness that power is misused, corruption reigns and evil is done. It is easy to imagine that in the end evil will triumph and the light will disappear. Situations change. Familiar landmarks -- like this magazine! -- disappear. There is the unrelenting pressure of a vanity fair society. The candle burns down and gives a thin wisp of smoke before going out.   But there are also the special party candles that keep bursting back into life. They are a much better picture of the light of the gospel! For though they have been numerous attempts down the centuries to extinguish the light, it has kept on bursting back into flame.   The light of Christ keeps on shining. New ways of sharing the good news come along. New believers are attracted to his light. Sleepy Christians are re-awakened. Fresh discoveries give even more confidence in the truth of the Bible.   The light keeps on shining in the darkness. It is a statement and a promise at the same time. It is isn't that once the light shone, but rather, that in the present it shines, and it will do so in the future as well. For the light comes from the one who is, as well as who was, and is also the one who is to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They have not always elected the best leaders, particularly after a long period in which they have not used this ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/31487]]></link><description><![CDATA[They have not always elected the best leaders, particularly after a long period in which they have not used this facility of free election.
