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[Lord, Thou hast made this world below the shadow of a dream, An', taught by time, I tak' it so--exceptin' ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56178]]></link><description><![CDATA[Lord, Thou hast made this world below the shadow of a dream, An', taught by time, I tak' it so--exceptin' always steam,  From coupler-flange to spindle-guide I see thy Hand, O God--   Predestination in the stride o' yon connectin'-rod.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/56178</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It fits us therefore ripely Our chariots and our horsemen be in readiness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25409]]></link><description><![CDATA[It fits us therefore ripely Our chariots and our horsemen be in readiness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/25409</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You can best reward a liar by believing nothing of what he says. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26149]]></link><description><![CDATA[You can best reward a liar by believing nothing of what he says.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/26149</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17254]]></link><description><![CDATA[Generosity is not giving me that which I need more than you do, but it is giving me that which you need more than I do.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/17254</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Love can cure heartbreaks, misfortune, or tragedy.

Thus the law of Christ is a law of bearing. Bearing means forbearing and sustaining...   The Christian must suffer and endure the brother. It is only when he is a burden that another person is really a brother and not merely an object to be manipulated. It is, first of all, the freedom of the other person that is a burden to the Christian. The freedom of the other person includes all that we mean by a person's nature, individuality, endowment. It also includes his weaknesses and oddities, which are such a trial to our patience, everything that produces frictions, conflicts, and collisions among us.   Then, there is the abuse of that freedom that becomes a burden for the Christian. In sin, fellowship with God and with his brother are broken. To cherish no contempt for the sinner but rather to prize the privilege of bearing him means not to have to give him up as lost, to be able to accept him, to preserve fellowship with him through forgiveness...   The service of forgiveness is rendered by one to the others daily. It occurs, without words, in the intercessions for one another. He who is bearing others knows that he himself is being borne.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8609</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Very obviously, they've pitched well - not making mistakes, living on the corners. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35258]]></link><description><![CDATA[Very obviously, they've pitched well - not making mistakes, living on the corners.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/35258</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[My goal as a Christian (is) to sound the alarm. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39569]]></link><description><![CDATA[My goal as a Christian (is) to sound the alarm.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39569</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Care is the the actualization of love assumed. -Doc Childre. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5246]]></link><description><![CDATA[Care is the the actualization of love assumed. -Doc Childre.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5246</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Like a wind scattering dandelion spores or maple samaras Lind the NASA shuttle which when it exploded sent people and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/512]]></link><description><![CDATA[Like a wind scattering dandelion spores or maple samaras Lind the NASA shuttle which when it exploded sent people and thousands of captive lab animals over 6 states the innocent little nameless Mad Cow* was decimated after drawn and quartered and sent by porters to 4 states' quarters.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/512</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Art and science have their meeting point in method. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9529]]></link><description><![CDATA[Art and science have their meeting point in method.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9529</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Frederick Denison Maurice, Priest, teacher, 1872  It is better, safer, truer language to speak of individual depravity ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7151]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Frederick Denison Maurice, Priest, teacher, 1872  It is better, safer, truer language to speak of individual depravity than of universal depravity. By individual depravity, I mean my own. I find it out in myself; or, rather, He who searcheth me and trieth my ways, finds it out in me. That sense of depravity implies the recognition of a law from which I have broken loose, of a Divine image which my character has not resembled. It is the law and the order which are universal. It is this character of Christ which is the true human character. It is easy enough to own to a general depravity; under cover of it, you and I would escape.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We want the facts to fit the preconceptions.
