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[When you make the sacrifice in marriage, you're sacrificing not to each other but to unity in a relationship. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60159]]></link><description><![CDATA[When you make the sacrifice in marriage, you're sacrificing not to each other but to unity in a relationship.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60159</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No one can really honestly be the very best, no one. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65496]]></link><description><![CDATA[No one can really honestly be the very best, no one.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65496</guid></item></channel></rss>
