For how is one to appreciate the contrast of light's dawning hope if his soul has never trembled through the dark hours of a nightmare's watch? Or how can one prove God's faithfulness if he never is granted the privilege of wandering through a barren desert, where only pools of Christ's Presence can possibly provide survival? It is a great honor to be apportioned pain. Christ Himself, though God incarnate, learned obedience through what He suffered. Dare we assume that we as His children can be taught by any wiser or kinder instructor than the severity of unwanted pain? We dare not steel ourselves against our trials, running away from the fires where our pruned branches crumble to ashes. For if we escape those flames, we will risk barrenness of soul and will miss out on the beauty that only is born through the ashes of yesterday's grief.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Experience is not what happens to you.

Probably all you'll think about him is that he seemed a cheerful, intelligent chap who took a real interest in what you said to him. If you do dislike him, it will be because you feel a bit envious of anyone who seems to enjoy life so easily. He won't be thinking about himself at all. There I must stop. If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too. At least, nothing whatever can be done before it. If you think you're not conceited, it means you are very conceited indeed.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8509</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Do not donut. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61620]]></link><description><![CDATA[Do not donut.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61620</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[On me, on me Time and change can heap no more!  The painful past with blighting grief   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18333]]></link><description><![CDATA[On me, on me Time and change can heap no more!  The painful past with blighting grief   Hath left my heart a withered leaf.    Time and change can do no more.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18333</guid></item></channel></rss>
