It is God's plan, God's activity; but because God became man and took up manhood into Himself, it is God's will embodied in active obedience on the part of the Christian individual, the Christian group within the Church, and the Christian Church as a whole -- we are all involved in it, all of us, in our various callings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6612</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ultimately if the cost goes up ... over some period of time, the jewelry industry would need to pass that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41672]]></link><description><![CDATA[Ultimately if the cost goes up ... over some period of time, the jewelry industry would need to pass that through.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Privilege is the greatest enemy of right ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48282]]></link><description><![CDATA[Privilege is the greatest enemy of right]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48282</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist   Paul Tillich can show us that the unity which we seek as ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7433]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist   Paul Tillich can show us that the unity which we seek as Christians must involve our denominations in changes even greater than those which many of us now expect. His insistence on taking seriously the gropings of all men for the truth about their lives must be allowed to remind the ecumenical movement that the word oikoumene is Greek not for "the Church" but for "the whole inhabited world". The ecumenical movement is more than Christian patriarchs kissing. Christian unity means the unity of mankind in finding and obeying God. Tillich can teach us that the Church must not shut its door to celebrate a family reunion while a single child of God remains outside.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7433</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Make me what Thou wouldst have me.

I bargain for nothing. I make no terms. I seek for no previous information whither Thou art taking me. I will be what Thou wilt make me, and all that Thou wilt make me. I say not, I will follow Thee whithersoever Thou goest, for I am weak, but I give myself to Thee, to lead me anywhither.   ... John Henry Newman  September 10, 2000   Evangelism is not an option for the Christian life.   ... Luis Palau  September 11, 2000   Lord, behold our family here assembled. We thank Thee for this place in which we dwell; for the love that unites us; for the peace accorded us this day; for the hope with which we expect the morrow; for the health, the work, the food, and the bright skies that make our lives delightful; for our friends in all parts of the earth, and our friendly helpers in this foreign isle [Samoa]... Give us courage, gaiety, and the quiet mind. Spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies. Bless us, if it may be, in all our innocent endeavors. If it may not be, give us the strength to encounter that which is to come, that we be brave in peril, constant in tribulation, temperate in wrath, and in all changes of fortune and down to the gates of death, loyal and loving to one another.   ... Robert Louis Stevenson  September 12, 2000   Devotion is the real spiritual sweetness which takes away all bitterness from mortifications, and prevents consolations from disagreeing with the soul; it cures the poor of sadness, and the rich of presumption; it keeps the oppressed from feeling desolate, and the prosperous from insolence: it averts sadness from the lonely, and dissipation from social life; it is as warmth in winter and as refreshing dew in summer; it knows how to abound and how to suffer want, how to profit alike by honour and by contempt; it accepts gladness and sadness with an even mind, and fills men's hearts with a wondrous sweetness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Day one was a bit of a disaster and to come back and win a gold after that was just ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29999]]></link><description><![CDATA[Day one was a bit of a disaster and to come back and win a gold after that was just unbelievable.
