If we are not fit to cope with that which He has prepared for us, we would have been utterly unfit for any condition that we imagine for ourselves.

Let us humbly, tremblingly, manfully look at it, and we shall not wish that the sun could go back its ten degrees, or that we could go back with it. If easy times are departed, it is that the difficult times may make us more in earnest; that they may teach us not to depend on ourselves. If easy belief is impossible, it is that we may learn what belief is, and in whom it is to be placed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6202</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A stone thrown at the right time is better than a stone thrown at the wrong time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62445]]></link><description><![CDATA[A stone thrown at the right time is better than a stone thrown at the wrong time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/62445</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[With me being a big guy and a physical presence out there, that's what I need to do ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ lay ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29238]]></link><description><![CDATA[With me being a big guy and a physical presence out there, that's what I need to do ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢Â‚Â¬Ã¢Â€Âœ lay the body, have some big hits, play strong defense and, when you need to fight and the opportunity arises, go at it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29238</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wear a smile and have friends; wear a scowl and have wrinkles.
