If you are determined in your purpose, if you have the will to do the Will, then with half a creed and less than half a pious ecstasy, you are at least in the line of the purpose of Jesus Christ; and as you will to do His will, may come some day to know the teaching.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We did a nice job. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32031]]></link><description><![CDATA[We did a nice job.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/32031</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The opposite of love is apathy, and hate is really the same as love.

Both these sorts of people obstruct the work of God upon their souls. For we can cooperate with God no other way than by submitting to the work of God, and seeking, and leaving ourselves to it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6951</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never let us be discouraged with ourselves; it is not when we are conscious of our faults that we are ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7835]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never let us be discouraged with ourselves; it is not when we are conscious of our faults that we are the most wicked: on the contrary, we are less so.
