When there is a want of brotherly love and Christian confidence among professors of religion, then a revival is needed. Then there is a loud call for God to revive his work. When Christians have sunk down into a low and backslidden state, they neither have, nor ought to have, nor is there reason to have, the same love and confidence toward each other, as when they are all alive, and active, and living holy lives...  2. When there are dissensions, and jealousies, and evil speakings among professors of religion, then there is great need of a revival. These things show that Christians have got far from God, and it is time to think earnestly of a revival. Religion cannot prosper with such things in the church, and nothing can put an end to them like a revival.  3. When there is a worldly spirit in the church: it is manifest that the church is sunk down into a low and backslidden state, when you see Christians conform to the world in dress, equipage, parties, seeking worldly amusements, reading novels and other books such as the world reads. It shows that they are far from God, and that there is a great need of a Revival of Religion.

Our affections are not ours to be blighted and crucified; they are ours to be deepened and purified. The rich opportunities of life are not held out to us only to be snatched away by an invisible hand patiently waiting for the hour when the cup is sweetest; they are given to us that we may grow, alike through their rise or their withdrawal. They are real, they are sweet, and they are worthy of our longing for them; we gain nothing by calling them dross, or the world an illusion, or ourselves the victims of deception, or by exalting renunciation as the highest virtue. When these opportunities are denied us, it is a real, not an imaginary, loss which we sustain; and our part is not that of bare renunciation, of simple surrender; our part is to recognize the loss, to bear the pain, and to find a deeper and richer life in doing the will of God.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6411</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Common sense is the knack of seeing things as they are, and doing things as they ought to be done. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9027]]></link><description><![CDATA[Common sense is the knack of seeing things as they are, and doing things as they ought to be done.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9027</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[People should be free to find or make for themselves the kinds of educational experience they want their children to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13453]]></link><description><![CDATA[People should be free to find or make for themselves the kinds of educational experience they want their children to have.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13453</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The ceaseless rain is falling fast, And yonder gilded vane,  Immovable for three days past,   Points to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52937]]></link><description><![CDATA[The ceaseless rain is falling fast, And yonder gilded vane,  Immovable for three days past,   Points to the misty main.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52937</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Thou shalt go thou shalt return never in battle shalt thou perish. [Lat., Ibis redibis non morieris in bello.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45222]]></link><description><![CDATA[Thou shalt go thou shalt return never in battle shalt thou perish. [Lat., Ibis redibis non morieris in bello.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45222</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is under review.
