Or dare we do what our Lord did, and see the Name hallowed in all life that is real and honest and good? Indeed, it was a scandal to the religious men of Jesus' day when they saw what He did with sacred things. With Jesus all life was sacred and nothing was profane until sin entered in. And so it was that the word "common," which used to mean profane and unclean, became the New-Testament word for the Communion of Saints and for the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6484</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Council is in the midst of significant restructuring. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41578]]></link><description><![CDATA[The Council is in the midst of significant restructuring.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The only safe ruler is he who has learned to obey willingly. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44740]]></link><description><![CDATA[The only safe ruler is he who has learned to obey willingly.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/44740</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A leap year Is never a good sheep year. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56162]]></link><description><![CDATA[A leap year Is never a good sheep year.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love knows no limit to its endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope; it can outlast ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47904]]></link><description><![CDATA[Love knows no limit to its endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope; it can outlast anything.

Yet even then, we have not reached the centre. For when we worship, we are in God's presence, and it is what He says and does to us that is the all-important thing, not what we say and do toward Him. Since He is here and speaking to us, face to face, it is for us, in a hush of spirit, to listen for and to His voice, reproving counseling, encouraging, revealing His most blessed will for us; and, with diligence, to set about immediate obedience. This and this, upon which He has laid His hand, must go; and this and this to which He calls us must be at once begun. And here and now I start to it. That is the heart of worship, its very core and essence.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7410</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You'll come to learn a great deal if you study the Insignificant in depth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46310]]></link><description><![CDATA[You'll come to learn a great deal if you study the Insignificant in depth.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/46310</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A sky full of silent suns. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56519]]></link><description><![CDATA[A sky full of silent suns.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56519</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We had two guys that transferred in that I'm confident will go to state.
