And when a Christian fails at something he ought to have done, it isn't just the failure that hurts -- there is also the knowledge that he has let Jesus down. And those little shortcomings of ours, that used to matter so little, compared with the glaring faults of others: we know now that our temper, or our gloom, or our selfishness, reflects on Jesus; and knowing that people are judging your Lord by you is not always a joyous thought to live with. Even the growing up to His measure is hard on a man: we have so little aptitude for such a transformation that it always means conflict, and often rebellion. And temptations hurt as they never did before: not just in the conscience, but in the heart. The assaults of temptation are not on our prudence now, or even on our morals, but on the love for Jesus. His love for us has made Him quite defenseless against our hurting Him, and so temptation is no longer an urge to do a bad thing but an urge to hurt a loving Person.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7020</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sycophantic behavior exists anywhere you go, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30038]]></link><description><![CDATA[Sycophantic behavior exists anywhere you go,]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/30038</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Music is a safe kind of high. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66900]]></link><description><![CDATA[Music is a safe kind of high.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66900</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Diebold controls 20% of the nation's voting machines..totals can apparently be manipulated from outsidethe voting area.(on Diane Rehm Show)http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/votefraud.html. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47666]]></link><description><![CDATA[Diebold controls 20% of the nation's voting machines..totals can apparently be manipulated from outsidethe voting area.(on Diane Rehm Show)http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/votefraud.html.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/47666</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fear not the future, weep not for the past. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51543]]></link><description><![CDATA[Fear not the future, weep not for the past.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/51543</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The wisdom of hindsight, so useful to historians and indeed to authors of memoirs, is sadly denied to practicing politicians. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19455]]></link><description><![CDATA[The wisdom of hindsight, so useful to historians and indeed to authors of memoirs, is sadly denied to practicing politicians.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19455</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Working in the theatre has a lot in common with unemployment. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/440]]></link><description><![CDATA[Working in the theatre has a lot in common with unemployment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/440</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[First they ignore you.
