Work done conscientiously by the Christian is his share in Christ's service; but it is Christ's service, and therefore the Christian need neither be proud because it has succeeded or overwhelmed because it has failed. The service of Christ is supremely expressed in the apparent failure of the Cross.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7205</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ignorance seldom vaults into knowledge, but passes into it through an intermediate state of obscurity, even as night into day ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20405]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ignorance seldom vaults into knowledge, but passes into it through an intermediate state of obscurity, even as night into day through twilight.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/20405</guid></item></channel></rss>
