There was none of the indeterminate, inconclusive talking which we are apt to describe as "sowing the seed". Our idea of sowing the seed seems to be rather like scattering wheat out of a balloon... Occasionally, of course, grains of wheat scattered out of a balloon will fall upon ploughed and fertile land and will spring up and bear fruit; but it is a casual method of sowing. Paul did not scatter seeds, he planted. He so dealt with his hearers that he brought them speedily and directly to a point of decision, and then he demanded of them that they should make a choice and act on their choice. In this way he kept the moral issue clearly before them, and made them realize that his preaching was not merely a novel and interesting doctrine, but a life. (Continued tomorrow).]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7973</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Teach us to give and not to count the cost. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17284]]></link><description><![CDATA[Teach us to give and not to count the cost.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17284</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No, no, I'm sure, My restless spirit never could endure  To brood so long upon one luxury,   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20615]]></link><description><![CDATA[No, no, I'm sure, My restless spirit never could endure  To brood so long upon one luxury,   Unless it did, though fearfully, espy    A hope beyond the shadow of a dream.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20615</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who is hated by all can not expect to live long. [Fr., Qui vit hai de tous ne saurait ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18846]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who is hated by all can not expect to live long. [Fr., Qui vit hai de tous ne saurait longtemps vivre.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18846</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are as many opinions as there are experts. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44963]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are as many opinions as there are experts.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44963</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jesus died to forgive our sins.

But it is necessary that we face this also. The full acceptance of our abjection and uselessness is the virtue that can make us and others rich in the grace of God. It takes heroic charity and humility to let others sustain us when we are absolutely incapable of sustaining ourselves. We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere, both in suffering and in the charity of those who come to the aid of our affliction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7880</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tell your master that if there were as many devils at Worms as tiles on its roofs, I would enter. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12151]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tell your master that if there were as many devils at Worms as tiles on its roofs, I would enter.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945   There remains for us only the very narrow way, often extremely ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8612]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Teacher, Martyr, 1945   There remains for us only the very narrow way, often extremely difficult to find, of living every day as though it were our last, and yet living in faith and responsibility as though there were to be a great future.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ash Wednesday Feast of Janani Luwum, Archbishop of Uganda, Martyr, 1977  Men must not content themselves with the lawfulness ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7230]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ash Wednesday Feast of Janani Luwum, Archbishop of Uganda, Martyr, 1977  Men must not content themselves with the lawfulness of their employments, but must consider whether they use them, as they are to use everything, as strangers and pilgrims that are baptised into the resurrection of Jesus Christ, that we are to follow Him in a wise and heavenly course of life, in the mortification of the worldly desires, and in purifying and preparing their souls for the blessed enjoyment of God. For to be vain, or proud, or covetous, or ambitious, in the common course of our business, is as contrary to these holy tempers of Christianity as cheating and dishonesty. If a glutton were to say, in excuse of his gluttony, that he only eats such things as it is lawful to eat, he would make as good an excuse for himself as the greedy, covetous, ambitious tradesman that would say that he only deals in lawful business. For, as a Christian is not only required to be honest, but to be of a Christian spirit, and make his life an exercise of humility, repentance, and heavenly affection, so all tempers that are contrary to these are as contrary to Christianity as cheating is contrary to honesty.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7230</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The strong flows of international capital into emerging markets reflect a number of important trends.
