But how to give Him a present to express our love is a bit of a problem. How can you give God anything when He owns everything? But does He? How about that power to choose, that precious free will that He has given to every living personality and which He so greatly respects? That is the only present we can give -- our selves, with all our powers of spirit, mind, and body, willingly, freely given because we love Him. That is the best and highest worship that you and I can offer, and I am sure that it is this above all that God most highly appreciates.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7443</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After dinner rest awhile, after supper walk a mile. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50965]]></link><description><![CDATA[After dinner rest awhile, after supper walk a mile.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50965</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All of what the government said is lies upon lies. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28516]]></link><description><![CDATA[All of what the government said is lies upon lies.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28516</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Idle folks have the most labour. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50991]]></link><description><![CDATA[Idle folks have the most labour.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50991</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This isn't an overnight fix.

Take the "obvious things" about Christ as listed by a contemporary minister:  He was a popular and controversial preacher; He gathered a group of followers; He spent most of his time with the disinherited; He taught with authority; He never married; He never (so far as we know) held a job; He did not participate in public affairs; He did not have income, property, or an address; He was in bitter and frequent conflict with the religious and political authorities; He seemed to expect that the world would be eminently, radically, and supernaturally transformed; He attacked the traditions and values of his own people; He practically forced the authorities to prosecute and execute him. There is nothing exclusively religious, much less Christian, in this description, which, with a few exceptions, might apply also to Socrates or to "Che" Guevara. I asked many socially oriented ministers why they were Christians at all. Some said through faith, and some said that Christianity gave them courage and the motivation to endure (but so do other beliefs). Some said they hardly knew and that, if another, more acceptable, ideology came along, they would embrace it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6816</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The aim of a joke is not to degrade the human being, but to remind him that he is already ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23297]]></link><description><![CDATA[The aim of a joke is not to degrade the human being, but to remind him that he is already degraded]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23297</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We are in impressive form, we play with enthusiasm.
