We are personalities in the making, limited, and grappling with things too high for us. Obviously we, at very best, will make many mistakes, but these mistakes need not be sins. Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence. Our intentions may be very good, but, because the intelligence is limited, the action may turn out to be a mistake -- a mistake, but not necessarily a sin, for sin comes out of a wrong intention. And therefore the action carries a sense of incompleteness and frustration, but not of guilt. Victorious living does not mean perfect living in the sense of living without flaw, but it does mean adequate living, and that can be consistent with many mistakes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8427</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Nothing is farther than earth from heaven; nothing is nearer than heaven to earth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66317]]></link><description><![CDATA[Nothing is farther than earth from heaven; nothing is nearer than heaven to earth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66317</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Jesus once declared that God is "good to the ungrateful and the wicked" (St. Luke 6:35), and I remember preaching ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7389]]></link><description><![CDATA[Jesus once declared that God is "good to the ungrateful and the wicked" (St. Luke 6:35), and I remember preaching a sermon on this text to a horrified and even astonished congregation who simply refused to believe (so I gathered afterwards) in this astounding liberality of God. That God should be in a state of constant fury with the wicked seemed to them only right and proper, but that God should be kind towards those who were defying or disobeying His laws seemed to them a monstrous injustice. Yet I was but quoting the Son of God Himself, and I only comment here that the terrifying risks that God takes are part of His Nature. We do not need to explain or modify His unremitting love towards mankind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18901]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is the balm that heals the forlorn ache of a distant star.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18901</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Time is the best teacher and judge. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65845]]></link><description><![CDATA[Time is the best teacher and judge.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65845</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Her modest looks the cottage might adorn, Sweet as the primrose peeps beneath the thorn. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42906]]></link><description><![CDATA[Her modest looks the cottage might adorn, Sweet as the primrose peeps beneath the thorn.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not turn back when you are just at the goal. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46169]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not turn back when you are just at the goal.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46169</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My mom said that the food they give you here tastes like dog food, but I don't think it's that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31595]]></link><description><![CDATA[My mom said that the food they give you here tastes like dog food, but I don't think it's that bad now,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If they can't get adopted, they will stay here.
