To accept that as the will of our Lord which to us is inconsistent with what we learned to worship in Him already, is to introduce discord into that harmony whose end is to unite our hearts, and make them whole. "Is it for us," says the objector who, by some sleight of will, believes in the word apart from the meaning for which it stands, "to judge the character of our Lord?" I answer, "This very thing He requires of us." He requires of us that we should do Him no injustice. He would come and dwell with us, if we would but open our chambers to receive Him. How shall we receive Him is, avoiding judgement, we hold this or that daub of authority or tradition hanging upon our walls to be the real likeness of our Lord?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8429</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63248]]></link><description><![CDATA[The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63248</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The mountain at a given distance In amber lies;  Approached, the amber flits a little,--   And that's ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56512]]></link><description><![CDATA[The mountain at a given distance In amber lies;  Approached, the amber flits a little,--   And that's the skies!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/56512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think there is only one quality worse than hardness of heart, and that is softness of head. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52671]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think there is only one quality worse than hardness of heart, and that is softness of head.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52671</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no defeat except for those who give up. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11793]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no defeat except for those who give up.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11793</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44874]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44874</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Imagine books and music and movies being filtered and homogenized.
