But if anything of this kind runs all through the course of our life, if we allow ourselves in things that are either vain, foolish, or sensual, we renounce our profession. For as sure as Jesus Christ was wisdom and holiness, as sure as He came to make us like Himself and to be baptized into His Spirit, so sure is it that none can be said to keep to their Christian profession but they who, to the utmost of their power, live a wise and holy and heavenly life. This, and this alone, is Christianity, a universal holiness in every part of life, a heavenly wisdom in all our actions, not conforming to the spirit and temper of the world but turning all worldly enjoyments into means of piety and devotion to God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6979</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66810]]></link><description><![CDATA[I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God's prophets of the Beautiful, These Poets were. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46845]]></link><description><![CDATA[God's prophets of the Beautiful, These Poets were.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tragedy is restful: and the reason is that hope, that foul, deceitful thing, has no part in it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37513]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tragedy is restful: and the reason is that hope, that foul, deceitful thing, has no part in it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like letting people in on the process.
