He hath many seekers of comfort, but few of tribulation. He findeth many companions of His table, but few of His fasting. All desire to rejoice with Him, few are willing to undergo anything for His sake. Many follow Jesus that they may eat of His loaves, but few that they may drink of the cup of His passion. Many are astonished at His miracles, few follow after the shame of His Cross. Many love Jesus so long as no adversities happen to them. Many praise Him and bless Him, so long as they receive any comforts from Him. But if Jesus hide Himself and withdraw a little while, they fall either into complaining or into too great dejection of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A doctor's reputation is made by the number of eminent men who die under his care. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26734]]></link><description><![CDATA[A doctor's reputation is made by the number of eminent men who die under his care.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26734</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All frauds, like the wall daubed with untempered mortar ... always tend to the decay of what they are devised ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16643]]></link><description><![CDATA[All frauds, like the wall daubed with untempered mortar ... always tend to the decay of what they are devised to support.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16643</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like--but oh! how different! ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13308]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like--but oh! how different!]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/13308</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fear follows crime, and is its punishment ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52541]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fear follows crime, and is its punishment]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/52541</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To say that I am happy is an understatement. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41906]]></link><description><![CDATA[To say that I am happy is an understatement.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/41906</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The day will come when, after harnessing the winds, the tides and gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25898]]></link><description><![CDATA[The day will come when, after harnessing the winds, the tides and gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of Love.
