Therefore I am assured that this anchorage of Divine example will hold the vessel in the tossings of the wildest sea of doubt, and I shall be as safe as He was, if the vessel itself is engulfed in the waves of suffering and sorrow. His act is an argument. His prayer is an inspiration. His achievements are the everlasting and all-sufficient vindication of prayer.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6601</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame.

"Salvation" can be seen then as the new life in Christ, in which we are to be "free to develop" into Christ-like people. For this maturing to take place, there needs to be a breaking down of barriers, a breaking up of the soil of our personalities, and a healing of inner wounds and hurts. The soil is softened, the clay becomes malleable through the experience of the tender love of God and the accepting, non-judgmental love of Christians. We cannot be beaten into shape.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once.  Of all the wonders ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51287]]></link><description><![CDATA[Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once.  Of all the wonders that I yet have heard.   It seems to me most strange that men should fear,    Seeing that death, a necessary end,     Will come when it will come.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51287</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three million and one hundred thousand Japanese people died in the war, and many foreigners were also victims. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34518]]></link><description><![CDATA[Three million and one hundred thousand Japanese people died in the war, and many foreigners were also victims.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34518</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We started one year ago, and have had four drives since then.

Religious emotion has enormous motive force, but it is the easiest thing in the world for it to sizzle away in high professions and wordy prayers.
