Sir Isaac Newton July 15, 2000 Commemoration of Swithun, Bishop of Winchester, c.862 Commemoration of Bonaventure, Franciscan Friar, Bishop, Peacemaker, 1274  There is no such thing as a post-Christian society. One generation may reject the Gospel itself, but it cannot reject it for future generations.  ... Luis Palau July 16, 2000 Commemoration of Osmund, Bishop of Salisbury, 1099  The glory of God is a living man; and the life of man consists in beholding God.  ... Irenaeus July 17, 2000  The discussion of prayer is so great that it requires the Father to reveal it, His firstborn Word to teach it, and the Spirit to enable us to think and speak rightly of so great a subject.  ... Origen July 18, 2000  Jesus is our mouth, through which we speak to the Father; He is our eye, through which we see the Father; He is our right hand through which we offer ourselves to the Father. Unless He intercedes, there is no intercourse with God.  ...

If we are whimpering, and sniveling, and begging to be spared the discipline of life that is sent to knock some smatterings of manhood into us, the answer to that prayer may never come at all. Thank God! Though, indeed, it is not easy to say that, with honesty. Still, it may never come at all, thank God. But if you have attained as far as Epictetus--pagan though you would call him--whose daily prayer was this: "O God, give me what Thou desirest for me, for I know that what Thou choosest for me is far better than I could choose"; if you are not bleating to get off, but asking to be given grace and strength to see this through with honour, "the very day" you pray that prayer, the answer always comes.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7868</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I rate enthusiasm even above professional skill. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5083]]></link><description><![CDATA[I rate enthusiasm even above professional skill.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5083</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The President has kept all of the promises he intended to keep. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48151]]></link><description><![CDATA[The President has kept all of the promises he intended to keep.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He's the rock around which we normally build our innings. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42696]]></link><description><![CDATA[He's the rock around which we normally build our innings.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/42696</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Yours was the 10,000-day war born of the Vietnamese's desire to be free and fueled by communist ideology.
