It is only by contact with God that a better quality of living can be achieved -- and Jesus Himself, as the records show, speent many hours in communion with God -- yet that new quality of life has to be both demonstrated and tested in the ordinary rough-and-tumble of plain living.

The good I have is from His stores supplied, The ill is only what He deems the best; He for my friend, I'm rich with naught beside, And poor without Him, though of all possessed; Changes may come, I take or I resign Content, while I am His, and He is mine. Whate'er may change, in Him no change is seen, A glorious Sun that wanes not nor declines; Above the storms and clouds He walks serene, And on His people's inward darkness shines; All may depart: I fret not, nor repine, While I my Saviours am, while He is mine. While here, alas! I know but half His love, But half discern Him, and but half adore; But when I meet Him in the realms above I hope to love him better, praise Him more, And feel, and tell, amid the choir divine, How fully I am His, and He is mine.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6807</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If you want people to think well of you, do not speak well of yourself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44961]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you want people to think well of you, do not speak well of yourself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44961</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633 It's true we cannot reach Christ's forti'th day Yet to go part of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7920]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of George Herbert, Priest, Poet, 1633 It's true we cannot reach Christ's forti'th day Yet to go part of that religious way   Is better than to rest: We cannot reach our Savior's purity; Yet we are bid, 'Be holy ev'n as He':   In both let's do our best. Who goeth in the way which Christ hath gone Is much more sure to meet with Him than one   That traveleth by-ways; Perhaps my God, though He be far before,  May turn, and take me by the hand, and more,   May strengthen my decays.
