Take from me all slothfulness, and give me a diligent and an active spirit, and wisdom to choose my employment; that I may do works proportionable to my person and to the dignity of a Christian, and may fill up all the spaces of my time with actions of religion and charity; that, when the devil assaults me, he may not find me idle; and my dearest Lord, at his sudden coming, may find me busy in lawful, necessary, and pious actions, improving my talent entrusted to me by thee, my Lord; that I may enter into the joy of my Lord, to partake of his eternal felicities, even for thy mercy's sake, and for my dearest Saviour's sake. Amen.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7345</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But he washed me ashoreand he took my pearland left an empty shell of me. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34905]]></link><description><![CDATA[But he washed me ashoreand he took my pearland left an empty shell of me.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The abstract metaphysical monotheism, the constant emphasis laid on God's unity and infinite and incomprehensible essence, could not give light ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7160]]></link><description><![CDATA[The abstract metaphysical monotheism, the constant emphasis laid on God's unity and infinite and incomprehensible essence, could not give light to the mind or peace to the heart... How human is the God of the Old Testament -- the God who appears, speaks, guides, who loves and is loved, even as the Man of the New Testament, Christ Jesus, is divine!

He must therefore plunge himself into the life of a godless world, without attempting to gloss over its ungodliness with a veneer of religion or trying to transfigure it. He must live a 'worldly' life and so participate in the suffering of God. He may live a worldly life as one emancipated from all false religions and obligations. To be a Christian does not mean to be religious in a particular way, to cultivate some particular form of asceticism (as a sinner, a penitent, or a saint), but to be a man. It is not some religious act which makes a Christian what he is, but participation in the suffering of God in the life of the world.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8594</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If he continues to do what he's doing and continues to progress, there's no reason that midway in the season ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/28632]]></link><description><![CDATA[If he continues to do what he's doing and continues to progress, there's no reason that midway in the season you couldn't call up a guy like him.
