We think of His earthly life as moving on a plane so different from ours that no parallel can be drawn between them. What we forget is, that He too needed to walk by faith, needed to be filled with the Holy Spirit, needed the sympathy of loving friends, needed the strengthening that is gained by private prayer. His strong and beautiful, serene and holy life so fills the eye that we lose sight of His secret intercourse with the Father, out of which came all its beauty, all its power.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Look upon the world as your enemy because only then the gifts it gives will give you immense pleasure. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46724]]></link><description><![CDATA[Look upon the world as your enemy because only then the gifts it gives will give you immense pleasure.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46724</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Logic is the anatomy of thought. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25440]]></link><description><![CDATA[Logic is the anatomy of thought.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fortune favors the brave. [Lat., Fortes fortuna adjuvat.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51764]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fortune favors the brave. [Lat., Fortes fortuna adjuvat.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Restore to God His due in tithe and time; A tithe purloin'd cankers the whole estate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53818]]></link><description><![CDATA[Restore to God His due in tithe and time; A tithe purloin'd cankers the whole estate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53818</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA["Be bold!" first gate; "Be bold, be bold, and evermore be bold," second gate; "Be not too bold!" third gate. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10268]]></link><description><![CDATA["Be bold!" first gate; "Be bold, be bold, and evermore be bold," second gate; "Be not too bold!" third gate.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/10268</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The test of any man's character is how he takes praise ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3573]]></link><description><![CDATA[The test of any man's character is how he takes praise]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3573</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is peace and rest and comfort in sorrow ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8977]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is peace and rest and comfort in sorrow]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Share everything.

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[If you're robbing a bank and you're pants fall down, I think it's okay to laugh and to let the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11710]]></link><description><![CDATA[If you're robbing a bank and you're pants fall down, I think it's okay to laugh and to let the hostages laugh too, because, come on, life is funny.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/11710</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If I can send the flower of the German nation into the hell of war without the smallest pity for ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52895]]></link><description><![CDATA[If I can send the flower of the German nation into the hell of war without the smallest pity for the shedding of precious German blood, then surely I have the right to remove millions of an inferior race that breeds like vermin]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52895</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I've searched all the parks in all the cities and found no statues ofcommittees. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22338]]></link><description><![CDATA[I've searched all the parks in all the cities and found no statues ofcommittees.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/22338</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am very pleased with today's wave of signings.
