The man of vision and imagination finds it difficult to see the value of those who do no more than plod on faithfully along a well-tried road. The man whose concern is in personal dealing with people and leading them to understand God better finds it difficult to be patient with the theologian or the Christian philosopher whose work is in the quiet of a book-lined study. Yet the truth is that the wholeness which God is working to achieve is never complete in an individual, but through individuals living together as one body, each supplying the deficiencies of the others.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7426</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Anger is as a stone cast into a wasp's nest. -Unknown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2630]]></link><description><![CDATA[Anger is as a stone cast into a wasp's nest. -Unknown.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2630</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The first half we did a good job.

Instead of asking yourself whether you believe or not, ask yourself whether you have, this day, done one thing because He said, Do it! or once abstained because He said, Do not do it!
