It was that sense which, without irreverence, I have thought to find expressed by the great evangelists when they speak of the fear of God. One does not fear God because He is terrible, but because He is literally the soul of goodness and truth, because to do Him wrong is to do wrong to some mysterious part of oneself, and one does not know exactly what the consequences may be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8414</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Death is near and our mutual company is short. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11302]]></link><description><![CDATA[Death is near and our mutual company is short.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11302</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Send a wise man on an errand, and say nothing unto him. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49736]]></link><description><![CDATA[Send a wise man on an errand, and say nothing unto him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/49736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Technology stocks were bought as some news, like that about Toshiba today, surprised investors who weren't expecting much from the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36522]]></link><description><![CDATA[Technology stocks were bought as some news, like that about Toshiba today, surprised investors who weren't expecting much from the industry.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/36522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul O for a thousand tongues to sing   My great Redeemer's praise, The ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6332]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Conversion of Paul O for a thousand tongues to sing   My great Redeemer's praise, The glories of my God and King,   The triumphs of his grace! My gracious Master and my God,   Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad   The honours of thy name. Jesus! the name that charms our fears,   That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears,   'Tis life, and health, and peace. He breaks the power of cancelled sin,   He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean,   His blood availed for me. He speaks, and, listening to his voice,   New life the dead receive, The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,   The humble poor believe. Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,   Your loosened tongues employ; Ye blind, behold your Saviour come,   And leap, ye lame, for joy. Look unto him, ye nations, own   Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be saved through faith alone,   Be justified by grace. See all your sins on Jesus laid:   The Lamb of God was slain, His soul was once an offering made   For every soul of man. Awake from guilty nature's sleep,   And Christ shall give you light, Cast all your sins into the deep,   And wash you purest white. With me, your chief, ye then shall know,   Shall feel your sins forgiven; Anticipate your heaven below,   And own that love is heaven.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6332</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A noble soul alone can noble souls attract; And knows alone, as ye, to hold them.  [Ger., Ein edler ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44575]]></link><description><![CDATA[A noble soul alone can noble souls attract; And knows alone, as ye, to hold them.  [Ger., Ein edler Mensch zieht edle Menschen an,   Und weiss sie fest zu halten, wie ihr thut.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44575</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll put a spoke among your wheels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48621]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll put a spoke among your wheels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48621</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tell me, what do they do for us in Bulgaria?
