So, where He leads me, I can safely go, And in the blest hereafter I shall know Why, in His wisdom, He hath led me so.  ... Anonymous    July 24, 1998  Commemoration of Thomas à Kempis, priest, spiritual writer, 1471  If thou shalt remain faithful and zealous in labour, doubt not that God shall be faithful and bountiful in rewarding thee. It is thy duty to have a good hope that thou wilt attain the victory: but thou must not fall into security lest thou become slothful or lifted up.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7736</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every year we go to Prairie Winds and it comes up and catches some kids.

How things really are --- and always will be --- is neither all-evil nor all-good but deficient, inconsistent, inferior.
