In these days when power and size and speed are almost universally admired, it seems to me particularly important to study afresh the "weakness", the "smallness of entry", and the "slowness" of God as He begins His vast work of reconstructing His disordered world. We are all tempted to take short cuts, to work for quick results, and to evade painful sacrifice. It is therefore essential that we should look again at love incarnate in a human being, to see God Himself at work within the limitations of human personality, and to base our methods on what we see Him do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I know Kurtis is going to generate some interest (from scouts) this year, and he needs to be able to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34553]]></link><description><![CDATA[I know Kurtis is going to generate some interest (from scouts) this year, and he needs to be able to handle that mentally.
