For infinite wisdom does not need telling what is best, and infinite goodness needs no urging to do it. But neither does God need any of those things that are done by finite agents, whether living or inanimate. He could, if He chose, repair our bodies miraculously without food; or give us food without the aid of farmers, bakers, and butchers, or knowledge without the aid of learned men; or convert the heathen without missionaries. Instead, He allows soils and weather and animals and the muscles, minds, and wills of men to cooperate in the execution of His will... It is not really stranger, nor less strange, that my prayers should affect the course of events than that my other actions should do so. They have not advised or changed God' s mind -- that is, His overall purpose. But that purpose will be realized in different ways according to the actions, including the prayers, of His creatures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8510</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Right after Jen [Jennifer McNamara] got hurt and we came back and won the tournament [Ryan Kickoff Classic], that was ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28212]]></link><description><![CDATA[Right after Jen [Jennifer McNamara] got hurt and we came back and won the tournament [Ryan Kickoff Classic], that was amazing.

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[Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59615]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Wulfstan, Bishop of Worcester, 1095  There is a misplaced sense of loyalty which makes many Christians feel ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6530]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Wulfstan, Bishop of Worcester, 1095  There is a misplaced sense of loyalty which makes many Christians feel reluctant to come out in open opposition to anything that calls itself by the same name, or uses words like "God" and "Christ"; even Christians who in practice dislike superstition as much as I do still often treat it as a minor aberration to be hushed up rather than a radical perversion to be denounced.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6530</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Civilization is hideously fragile [and] there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19820]]></link><description><![CDATA[Civilization is hideously fragile [and] there's not much between us and the horrors underneath, just about a coat of varnish.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19820</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I need milk' and 'I need to decide whether to buy this company' both tie up space in psychic RAM. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33026]]></link><description><![CDATA[I need milk' and 'I need to decide whether to buy this company' both tie up space in psychic RAM.
