He is the beginning, middle, and end of everything to us... There is nothing good, nothing holy, nothing beautiful, nothing joyous, which He is not to His servants. No one need be poor, because, if he chooses, he can have Jesus for his own property and possession. No one need be downcast, for Jesus is the joy of heaven, and it is His joy to enter into sorrowful hearts. We can exaggerate about many things; but we can never exaggerate our obligation to Jesus., or the compassionate abundance of the love of Jesus to us. All our lives long we might talk of Jesus, and yet we should never come to an end of the sweet things that night be said of Him. Eternity will not be long enough to learn all He is, or to praise Him for all He has done -- but then, that matters not; for we shall be always with Him, and we desire nothing more.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8324</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are men who would quickly love each other if once they were speak to each other; for when they ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9054]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are men who would quickly love each other if once they were speak to each other; for when they spoke they would discover that their souls had only separated by phantoms and delusions.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He that conceals his grief finds no remedy for it ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18323]]></link><description><![CDATA[He that conceals his grief finds no remedy for it]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every few years I'll party way too much to remind myself what an idiot I am. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37645]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every few years I'll party way too much to remind myself what an idiot I am.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/37645</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are a lot of ways to check her story out and that's what we have been telling people.

But God does not require us to carry the whole at once. He mercifully unties the bundle, and gives us first one stick, which we are to carry today, and then another, which we are to carry tomorrow, and so on. This we might easily manage, if we would only take the burden appointed for each day; but we choose to increase our troubles by carrying yesterday's stick over again today, and adding tomorrow's burden to the load, before we are required to bear it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8112</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A garden requires patient labor and attention.
