The whole transaction of religious conversion has been made mechanical and spiritless. Faith may now be exercised without a jar to the moral life and without embarrassment to the Adamic ego. Christ may be "received" without creating any special love for Him in the soul of the receiver. The man is "saved", but he is not hungry or thirsty after God. In fact, he is specifically taught to be satisfied and encouraged to be content with little. The modern scientist has lost God amid the wonders of His world; we Christians are in real danger of losing God amid the wonders of His Word.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7122</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[They were afraid, never having learned what I taught myself: Defeat the fear of death and welcome the death of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19476]]></link><description><![CDATA[They were afraid, never having learned what I taught myself: Defeat the fear of death and welcome the death of fear.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19476</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He came here and he emerged and I didn't and that's all I heard, Fred this and Fred that, ... ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35666]]></link><description><![CDATA[He came here and he emerged and I didn't and that's all I heard, Fred this and Fred that, ...

A whole life long didst thou suffer that I too might be saved; and yet thy suffering is not yet at an end; but this too wilt thou endure, saving and redeeming me, this patient suffering of having to do with me, I who so often go astray from the right path, or even when I remained on the straight path stumbled along it or crept so slowly along the right path. Infinite patience, suffering of infinite patience. How many times have I not been impatient, wished to give up and forsake everything; wished to take the terribly easy way out, despair: but thou didst not lose patience. Oh, I cannot say what thy chosen servant says: that he filled up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in his flesh; no, I can only say that I increased thy sufferings, added new ones to those which thou didst once suffer in order to save me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8228</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A wise unselfishness is not a surrender of yourself to the wishes of anyone, but only to the best discoverable ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2242]]></link><description><![CDATA[A wise unselfishness is not a surrender of yourself to the wishes of anyone, but only to the best discoverable course of action.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2242</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When you haven't taken that next step, self doubt can take over.

The Scriptures indeed were at hand for the study of those who could avail themselves of them, but St. Iranaeus does not hesitate to speak of whole races who had been converted to Christianity, without being able to read them. To be unable to read or write was in those times no evidence of want of learning; the hermits of the deserts were, in one sense of the word, illiterate, yet the great St. Anthony, though he knew not letters, was a match in disputation for the learned philosophers who came to try him.  ... John Henry Newman, "What is a University?" August 12, 2000   Any single verse of the Bible, taken in isolation, may actually be dangerous to your spiritual health. Every part of it must be read in relation to the whole message.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8465</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He kept no Christmas-house for once a yeere, Each day his boards were fild with Lordly fare;  He fed ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19858]]></link><description><![CDATA[He kept no Christmas-house for once a yeere, Each day his boards were fild with Lordly fare;  He fed a rout of yeoman with his cheer,   Nor was his bread and beefe kept in with care;    His wine and beere to strangers were not spare,     And yet beside to all that hunger greved,      His gates were open, and they were there relived.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is well to remember that there are five reasons for drinking: the arrival of a friend, one's present or ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61658]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is well to remember that there are five reasons for drinking: the arrival of a friend, one's present or future thirst, the excellence of the wine, or any other reason.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61658</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Main chance. -King Henry VI.

Tell Him your troubles, that He may comfort you; tell Him your joys, that He may sober them; tell Him your longings, that He may purify them; tell Him your dislikes, that He may help you conquer them; talk to Him of your temptations, that He may shield you from them: show Him the wounds of your heart, that He may heal them; lay bare your indifference to good, your depraved tastes for evil, your instability. Tell Him how self-love makes you unjust to others, how vanity tempts you to be insincere, how pride disguises you to yourself and others.  If you thus pour out all your weaknesses, needs, troubles, there will be no lack of what to say. You will never exhaust the subject. It is continually being renewed. People who have no secrets from each other never want for subjects of conversation. They do not weigh their words, for there is nothing to be held back; neither do they seek for something to say. They talk out of the abundance of the heart, without consideration they say just what they think. Blessed are they who attain to such familiar, unreserved intercourse with God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every year tuition is reviewed and if tuition goes up, it is usually due to rising costs and general raises ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31225]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every year tuition is reviewed and if tuition goes up, it is usually due to rising costs and general raises due to inflation.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/31225</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We like going into an away stadium and establishing that as our home.
