When you don't listen to what's being told it becomes rather frustrating. Like I told the guys, I will tell you what I want you to do and when it doesn't work, I'll take the blame but if you don't do what you are asked nothing can work. We had four guys doing one thing and one guy doing something else. It was one of our worst outings of the year.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34113</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Before I left, I opened a lot of doors for a lot of people to play the blues. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41176]]></link><description><![CDATA[Before I left, I opened a lot of doors for a lot of people to play the blues.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41176</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This I ever held worse that all certitude,  To know not what the worst ahead might be. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60021]]></link><description><![CDATA[This I ever held worse that all certitude,  To know not what the worst ahead might be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60021</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was indeed the glass Wherein the noble youth did dress themselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14402]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was indeed the glass Wherein the noble youth did dress themselves.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/14402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why does pouring Oil on the Sea make it Clear and Calm?

Frederick Ward Kates  September 2, 2000 Commemoration of Martyrs of Papua New Guinea, 1942   The apostles were moved, not so much by an intellectual apprehension, as by a spiritual illumination. They met men, and the need of those men whom they met cried aloud to them. Their own desire for the revelation of the glory of Jesus in the salvation of men went out towards those whom they met, and was immediately answered by the recognition of the need of those whom they met for Jesus Christ.   ... Roland Allen, Pentecost and the World  ... Also see comments on this book in Bookworms September 3, 2000 Feast of Gregory the Great, Bishop of Rome, Teacher, 604   The task is not, in essence, the securing of uniformity, or cooperation, or Church reunion, or any of the external forms, through which nevertheless the unity may be manifested. Within the wide bounds of the Christian Church there is abundant scope for the multiplicity of races, languages, and social conditions; room also for separate organizations with different traditions of faith and order, and much diversity of operation. But there is no room for strife or hostility, for pride or selfassertion, for exclusiveness or unkind judgments, nor for that kind of independence which leads men to ignore their fellowship with the great company of believers, the communion of saints. These things are contrary to the revealed will of God, and should be made at once to cease. As these disappear, the outward manifestation of unity will come in such ways as the Spirit of God shall guide.   ... G. T. Manley, Christian Unity  September 4, 2000 Commemoration of Birinus, Bishop of Dorchester (Oxon), Apostle of Wessex, 650   If all you have found [in Christianity] is advantage, whether it is fun or profit or security, then you haven't started following Him yet. His way is the way of the Cross. The world can be very hard on those it hates. If it is not hard on you, perhaps it sees nothing in you to hate. But then it doesn't see Jesus in you, for it hates Jesus with an undying hatred. While your way is still all fun, all easy, all jolly, it is only your way: when you turn from it to follow His way, it will cost. It may cost you everything you have. That is what it cost Him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7281</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ah! what avail the largest gifts of Heaven, When drooping health and spirits go amiss?  How tasteless then whatever ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18931]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ah! what avail the largest gifts of Heaven, When drooping health and spirits go amiss?  How tasteless then whatever can be given!   Health is the vital principle of bliss,    And exercise of health.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18931</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[And thou I bestow all my good to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5692]]></link><description><![CDATA[And thou I bestow all my good to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5692</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take the first step in faith.
