So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its savor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens betrays God when a man's mind works that way. Things have all this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We weren't getting anyone in front of her and she pretty much stops everything she sees and doesn't allow rebounds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42631]]></link><description><![CDATA[We weren't getting anyone in front of her and she pretty much stops everything she sees and doesn't allow rebounds.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42631</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'd like to have a situation where Coach Chavis and Coach Slade say I want you to be on the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37340]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'd like to have a situation where Coach Chavis and Coach Slade say I want you to be on the best receiver and lock him down, stay on him the whole game, don't let him touch the ball, smother him.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37340</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[What thin partitions sense from thought divide. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55108]]></link><description><![CDATA[What thin partitions sense from thought divide.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55108</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prejudice cannot see the things that are because it is always looking for things that aren't ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48093]]></link><description><![CDATA[Prejudice cannot see the things that are because it is always looking for things that aren't]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48093</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45881]]></link><description><![CDATA[Peace rules the day, where reason rules the mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/45881</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It was a big deal for us all those corny things kids did in those days. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33072]]></link><description><![CDATA[It was a big deal for us all those corny things kids did in those days.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/33072</guid></item></channel></rss>
