If I were to preach upon this text ("For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matt. 6:21), to such a glass, it would be enough for half the sermon, enough to show the worldly man his treasure, and the object of his Heart, to call his eye to that minute-glass, and to tell him, "There flows, there flies, your treasure, and your heart with it."   But if I had a secular glass, a glass that would run an age; if the two hemispheres of the world were composed in the form of such a glass, and all the world burnt to ashes, and all the ashes, and the sands, and atoms of the world put into that glass, it would not be enough to tell the godly man what his treasure, and the object of his heart is. A parrot will sooner be brought to relate to us the wisdom of a council table, than any Ambrose, or any Chrysostom, men that have gold and honey in their names, shall tell us what the treasure of heaven is, and that man's peace, that hath set his Heart upon that treasure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Just because an animal is large, it doesn't mean he doesn't want kindness; however big Tigger seems to be, remember ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23771]]></link><description><![CDATA[Just because an animal is large, it doesn't mean he doesn't want kindness; however big Tigger seems to be, remember that he wants as much kindness as Roo.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23771</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Remember that as a teenager you are in the last stage of your life when you will be happy to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64051]]></link><description><![CDATA[Remember that as a teenager you are in the last stage of your life when you will be happy to hear the phone is for you.rn]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/64051</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger and intolerance are the twin enemies of correct understanding. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22972]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger and intolerance are the twin enemies of correct understanding.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22972</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every time I listen back to solos of mine I'll hear something I like and then another phrase that I ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38348]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every time I listen back to solos of mine I'll hear something I like and then another phrase that I can't stand.
