But it is necessary that we face this also. The full acceptance of our abjection and uselessness is the virtue that can make us and others rich in the grace of God. It takes heroic charity and humility to let others sustain us when we are absolutely incapable of sustaining ourselves. We cannot suffer well unless we see Christ everywhere, both in suffering and in the charity of those who come to the aid of our affliction.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8030</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Aidan, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 651 Commemoration of Cuthburga, Founding Abbess of Wimborne, c.725 Commemoration of John Bunyan, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6984]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Aidan, Bishop of Lindisfarne, Missionary, 651 Commemoration of Cuthburga, Founding Abbess of Wimborne, c.725 Commemoration of John Bunyan, Spiritual Writer, 1688   Christians are like the flowers in a garden, that have each of them the dew of Heaven, which, being shaken with the wind, they let fall at each other's roots, whereby they are jointly nourished, and become nourishers of each other.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6984</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The fringed curtains of thine eye advance. -The Tempest.

Christ stated emphatically that it was quite impossible, in the nature of things, for a man to be at peace with God and at variance with his neighbor. This disquieting fact is often hushed up, but it is undeniable that Christ said it, and the truth of it is enshrined in the petition for forgiveness in the "Lord's Prayer.".]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7618</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When they brought her name up, I said I'm not going to talk about it.

It may fill him with a self-righteousness which rejoices in its own superiority to those who have had no like experience. It may move a man to a Pharisaic self-isolation. There have in fact been not a few so-called conversions as a result of which a man has left the Church to belong to some smaller and holier body. The plain truth is that such a one should very seriously examine himself, if he finds what he regards as his Christian experience separating him from his fellow-men, or his fellow-Christians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wars begin in the minds of man, and in those minds, love and compassion would have built the defenses of ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9182]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wars begin in the minds of man, and in those minds, love and compassion would have built the defenses of peace.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9182</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is not the distance of the earth from the sun, nor the sun's withdrawing itself, that makes a dark ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8057]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is not the distance of the earth from the sun, nor the sun's withdrawing itself, that makes a dark and gloomy day; but the interposition of clouds and vaporous exhalations.
