It is the grateful, faithful, fruitful use of what we have, little or much. It is to take the cup of Providence, and call upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains is its contents. To get all that is in the cup is the act and art of contentment. Not to drink because one has but half a cup, or because one does not like its flavor, or because somebody else has silver to one's own glass, is to lose the contents; and that is the penalty, if not the meaning, of discontent. No one is discontented who employs and enjoys to the utmost what he has. It is high philosophy to say, we can have just what we like if we like what we have; but this much at least can be done, and this is contentment: to have the most and best in life by making the most and best of what we have.   ... Maltbie D. Babcock August 7, 2000 Commemoration of John Mason Neale, Priest, Poet, 1866   For all the vigour of his polemic, St. Paul does not content himself with the denunciation of error, but finds the best defense against its insidious approaches in a closer adherence to the love of God and faith in Christ.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6689</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Shocking writing is like murder: the questions the jury must decide are the questions of motive and intent. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23595]]></link><description><![CDATA[Shocking writing is like murder: the questions the jury must decide are the questions of motive and intent.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/23595</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We firmly expect to achieve progress and advance beyond agreements reached at ... previous talks, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28848]]></link><description><![CDATA[We firmly expect to achieve progress and advance beyond agreements reached at ... previous talks,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28848</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment . ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63178]]></link><description><![CDATA[To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment .]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Let the galled jade wince; our withers are unwrung. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51267]]></link><description><![CDATA[Let the galled jade wince; our withers are unwrung.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51267</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But we must believe that Judas, who repented even to agony, who repented so that his high-prized life, self, soul, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8250]]></link><description><![CDATA[But we must believe that Judas, who repented even to agony, who repented so that his high-prized life, self, soul, became worthless in his eyes and met with no mercy at his own hand, -- must we believe he could find no mercy in such a God? I think when Judas fled from his hanged and fallen body, he fled to the tender help of Jesus, and found it -- I say not how. He was in a more hopeful condition now than during any moment of his past life, for he had never repented before. But I believe that Jesus loved Judas even when he was kissing Him with traitor's kiss; and I believe that He was his Saviour still.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8250</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lies that build are better than truths that destroy. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24795]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lies that build are better than truths that destroy.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/24795</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sitting at home the way I do, I'd just love the hear from people.
