I now see godliness is more than the outside and this world's passments and their buskings [i.e., ornaments and fine dress]. Who knoweth the truth of grace without a trial? O how little getteth Christ of us, but that which he winneth (to speak so) with much toil and pains! And how soon would faith freeze without a cross?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6347</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There is no place more delightful than one's own fireside. [Lat., Nullus est locus domestica sede jucundior.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19614]]></link><description><![CDATA[There is no place more delightful than one's own fireside. [Lat., Nullus est locus domestica sede jucundior.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/19614</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mmmmmmmmmm....You can almost smell the burning pork...Hey you ever thrown rocks at cops? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18309]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mmmmmmmmmm....You can almost smell the burning pork...Hey you ever thrown rocks at cops?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/18309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Is there a tongue like Delia's o'er her cup, That runs for ages without winding up? ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59492]]></link><description><![CDATA[Is there a tongue like Delia's o'er her cup, That runs for ages without winding up?]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59492</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Tears are words that are too deep to be spoken... ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63279]]></link><description><![CDATA[Tears are words that are too deep to be spoken...]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63279</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I had seen the great, but I had not seen the small. [Fr., J'avais vu les grands, mais je n'avais ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5503]]></link><description><![CDATA[I had seen the great, but I had not seen the small. [Fr., J'avais vu les grands, mais je n'avais pas vu les petits.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/5503</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble is small, the fun is great. [Ger., Die Muh'ist klein, der Spass ist gross.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59726]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble is small, the fun is great. [Ger., Die Muh'ist klein, der Spass ist gross.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59726</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I depart, Whither I know not; but the hour's gone by  When Albion's lessening shores could grieve or glad ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59611]]></link><description><![CDATA[I depart, Whither I know not; but the hour's gone by  When Albion's lessening shores could grieve or glad mine eye.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/59611</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[War is cruel and you cannot refine it. •William T.

His way is the way of the Cross. The world can be very hard on those it hates. If it is not hard on you, perhaps it sees nothing in you to hate. But then it doesn't see Jesus in you, for it hates Jesus with an undying hatred. While your way is still all fun, all easy, all jolly, it is only your way: when you turn from it to follow His way, it will cost. It may cost you everything you have.
