What a comfort it is to know the Man in charge of it all. Without Him, it would be easy to think that the whole of time and space, and life itself, are without reason, purpose, or meaning -- as H. G. Wells said, that it is "a bad joke beyond our unterstanding, a flare of vulgarity, an empty laugh braying across the mysteries." With Jesus forever between God and us, we can understand a few things, and trust Him for the rest. After all, He is one of us: a baby once, as we all were; then, and forever after, a Man, as we all shall always be.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[So may glory from defect arise. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17539]]></link><description><![CDATA[So may glory from defect arise.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17539</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vanity keeps persons in favor with themselves who are out of favor with all others ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60364]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vanity keeps persons in favor with themselves who are out of favor with all others]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60364</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Security is a big deal and we are very familiar with it because we operate in that world today. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38236]]></link><description><![CDATA[Security is a big deal and we are very familiar with it because we operate in that world today.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/38236</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A small leak will sink a great ship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59703]]></link><description><![CDATA[A small leak will sink a great ship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59703</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marrying a man is like buying something you've been admiring for a long time in a shop window.

Consider Christ's proceeding with Peter in the ship, in the storm: First he suffered him to be in some danger in the storm, but then he visits him with that strong assurance, "Be not afraid, It is I": any testimony of his presence rectifies all. This puts Peter into that spiritual confidence and courage, "Lord bid me come to thee"; he hath a desire to be with Christ, but yet stays his bidding: he puts not himself into an unnecessary danger, without commandment: Christ bids him, and Peter comes: but yet, though Christ were in his sight, and even in the actual exercise of his love to him, so soon as he saw a gust, a storm, "He was afraid"; and Christ lets him fear, and lets him sink, and lets him cry, but he directs his fear and his cry to the right end: "Lord, save me"; and thereupon he stretched forth his hand and saved him...   God puts his children into good ways, and he directs and protects them in those ways; for this is the constancy and perseverence of the love of Jesus Christ to us, as he is called in this text (Matt. 21:44), a stone.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8211</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[If they make you not then the better answer, you may say they are not the men you took them ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/55440]]></link><description><![CDATA[If they make you not then the better answer, you may say they are not the men you took them for. -Much Ado about Nothing.
