Let us pray then with faith, and not lose the fruits of our prayers by a wavering uncertainty which, as St. James testifies, hinders the success of them. The same apostle advises us to pray when we are in trouble because thereby we should find consolation; yet we are so wretched that this heavenly employment is often a burden instead of a comfort to us. The lukewarmness of our prayers is the source of all our other infidelities.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6650</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The true worth of a man is not to be found in man himself, but in the colours and textures ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63718]]></link><description><![CDATA[The true worth of a man is not to be found in man himself, but in the colours and textures that come alive in others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63718</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It took me 17 years to get 3,000 hits, but I did it in one afternoon on the golf course. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17809]]></link><description><![CDATA[It took me 17 years to get 3,000 hits, but I did it in one afternoon on the golf course.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17809</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You have a young girl, the owner's daughter, doing what family wants her to do, and an immigrant trying to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29720]]></link><description><![CDATA[You have a young girl, the owner's daughter, doing what family wants her to do, and an immigrant trying to save up to bring the rest of his family over.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29720</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Strategically, both are good fits. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42673]]></link><description><![CDATA[Strategically, both are good fits.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42673</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915  Covetousness, pride, and envy are not three different things, but ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6937]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Mary Slessor, Missionary in West Africa, 1915  Covetousness, pride, and envy are not three different things, but only three different names for the restless workings of one and the same will or desire. Wrath, which is a fourth birth from these three, can have no existence till one or all of these three are contradicted, or have something done to them that is contrary to their will. These four properties generate their own torment. They have no outward cause, nor any inward power of altering themselves. And therefore all self or nature must be in this state until some supernatural good comes into it, or gets a birth in it. Whilst man indeed lives among the vanities of time, his covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath may be in a tolerable state, may hold him to a mixture of peace and trouble; they may have at times their gratifications as well as their torments. But when death has put an end to the vanity of all earthly cheats, the soul that is not born again of the Supernatural Word and Spirit of God, must find itself unavoidably devoured and shut up in its own insatiable, unchangeable, self-tormenting covetousness, envy, pride, and wrath.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Painting from nature is not copying the object; it is realizing one's sensations. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66316]]></link><description><![CDATA[Painting from nature is not copying the object; it is realizing one's sensations.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Written laws are like spider's webs; they will catch, it is true, the weak and the poor, but would be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29162]]></link><description><![CDATA[Written laws are like spider's webs; they will catch, it is true, the weak and the poor, but would be torn in pieces by the rich and powerful.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21314]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/21314</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ideas are like rabbits.

Not along this track lies the path of moral progress. Christianity says: face the evil once for all, and disown it. Then quiet the spirit in the presence of God. Let His perfections fill the field of vision. In particular, let the concrete embodiment of the goodness of God in Christ attract and absorb the gaze of the soul. Here is the righteousness, not as a fixed and abstract ideal, but in a living human person. The righteousness of Christ is a real achievement of God's own Spirit in man.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7934</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The demand that the Atonement shall be exhibited in vital relation to a new life in which sin is overcome... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7924]]></link><description><![CDATA[The demand that the Atonement shall be exhibited in vital relation to a new life in which sin is overcome... is entirely legitimate, and it touches a weak point in the traditional Protestant doctrine. Dr. (Thomas) Chalmers tells us that he was brought up -- such was the effect of the current orthodoxy upon him -- in a certain distrust of good works. Some were certainly wanted, but not as being themselves salvation, only, as he puts it, as tokens of justification. It was a distinct stage in his religious progress when he realized that true justification sanctifies, and that the soul can and ought to abandon itself spontaneously and joyfully to do the good that it delights in. The modern mind assumes what Dr. Chalmers painfully discovered. An atonement that does not regenerate, it truly holds, is not an atonement in which men can be asked to believe.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7924</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Justice in the life and conduct of the State is possible only as first it resides in the hearts and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23612]]></link><description><![CDATA[Justice in the life and conduct of the State is possible only as first it resides in the hearts and souls of the citizens]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Father and His Two DaughtersA man had two daughters, the one married to a gardener, and the other to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1583]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Father and His Two DaughtersA man had two daughters, the one married to a gardener, and the other to a tile-maker.

She said, All things are prospering with me, and I have only one wish, that there may be a heavy fall of rain, in order that the plants may be well watered. Not long after, he went to the daughter who had married the tilemaker, and likewise inquired of her how she fared; she replied, I want for nothing, and have only one wish, that the dry weather may continue, and the sun shine hot and bright, so that the bricks might be dried. He said to her, If your sister wishes for rain, and you for dry weather, with which of the two am I to join my wishes?'.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/1583</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything popular is wrong. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47701]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything popular is wrong.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47701</guid></item></channel></rss>
