"Such is the will of God," instead of setting ourselves to inquire whether it is the will of God to give us power to bring about or prevent such results; then our conduct is not piety but sinful laziness.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6483</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every once in a while, something happens to you that makes you realise that the human race is not quite ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63820]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every once in a while, something happens to you that makes you realise that the human race is not quite as bad as it so often seems to be.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/63820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where there are many counsellors there is safety. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48913]]></link><description><![CDATA[Where there are many counsellors there is safety.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour,  And gather honey all the day   From ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3914]]></link><description><![CDATA[How doth the little busy bee Improve each shining hour,  And gather honey all the day   From every opening flower.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3914</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But is there nothing else, That we may do but only walk?

I see that morning in Thy convert's tears,  Fresh as the dew, which but this downing wears.  I smell her spices; and her ointment yields  As rich a scent as the now primrosed fields:  The Day-star smiles, and light, with Thee deceased,  Now shines in all the chambers of the East.  ...

As the Christian life is, above all things, a state of union with Christ, and of union of his followers with one another, love of the brethren is inseparable from love of God. Resentment toward any human being cannot exist in the same heart with love to God. The personal relationship to Christ can only be realized when one has "come to himself" as a member of His Body, the Christian fellowship.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Actually I never make a mistake, because it takes a huge effort for me to make a mistake. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57770]]></link><description><![CDATA[Actually I never make a mistake, because it takes a huge effort for me to make a mistake.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57770</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A cheerful frame of mind, reinforced by relaxation... is the medicine that puts all ghosts of fear on the run. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35514]]></link><description><![CDATA[A cheerful frame of mind, reinforced by relaxation... is the medicine that puts all ghosts of fear on the run.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/35514</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We make our choices, then our choices make us! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64154]]></link><description><![CDATA[We make our choices, then our choices make us!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64154</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[That faith alone will never forsake Christ which springs out of or is built upon a conviction of the need ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7197]]></link><description><![CDATA[That faith alone will never forsake Christ which springs out of or is built upon a conviction of the need for Him.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7197</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Men are rich only as they give.
