Abraham, Moses, and David were valiant believers, but compared to Jesus they were timid souls. Consider the human disappointments Jesus endured: rejected in his home town, harassed and persecuted by the religious leaders of his nation, misunderstood by his own family, betrayed with a kiss and abandoned by all his followers. Yet through it all Jesus never complained or rebelled against God; he trusted God even on the cross. Psalm 34 sets forth Jesus' pioneering discovery of God's faithfulness and delivering power. Thus Jesus was "delivered from all his fears" (v 4), "saved ... out of all his troubles" (v 6), "delivered out of all his afflictions" (v 19).  Certainly Jesus is our primary teacher and example in trusting God. If David could teach his followers to trust in God, how much more Jesus. As we see the steadfast faith of our Lord through weariness, disappointment, rejection, and even death on a cross, we cannot but be encouraged to believe that God can deliver us through our small trials. That is why we should run the race set before us looking unto Jesus.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6216</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is dangerous to confuse children with angels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5971]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is dangerous to confuse children with angels.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5971</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'm happy the queen will be here when the government may fall.

This is not a specially religious mistake. We think of supernaturalism when faith is mentioned, but the naturalistic description of the world also operates on assumptions that require a faith as robust as does the most soaring mysticism. The usual efforts to skirt faith beg all the questions there are. A psychiatrist, for instance, who points out to you that you believe in God the Father because you need a father, or that you became a missionary to expiate your guilt feelings, may be quite correct, but he has not touched on the prior question as to whether there is, in fact, a cosmic father figure who is the archetype of all other fathers, or whether there is an evangel worth spending your life promulgating.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7701</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life is like a movie, if you've sat through more than half of it and its sucked every second so ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58228]]></link><description><![CDATA[Life is like a movie, if you've sat through more than half of it and its sucked every second so far, it probably isn't gonna get great right at the end and make it all worthwhile.
