If I do not love a person I am not moved to help him by proofs that he is in need; if I do love him, I wait for no proof of a special need to urge me to help him. Knowledge of Christ is so rich a treasure that the spirit of love must necessarily desire to impart it. The mere assurance that others have it not is sufficient proof of their need. This spirit of love throws aside intellectual arguments that they can do very well without it. But if this spirit is not present, a man is easily persuaded that to impart a knowledge of Christianity (for it is noteworthy that such men always speak of Christianity rather than of Christ) is not necessary -- nay, is superfluous expense of energy which might be better used in other ways.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7715</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Happiness comes when we stop complaining about the troubles we have and offer thanks for all the troubles we don't ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63036]]></link><description><![CDATA[Happiness comes when we stop complaining about the troubles we have and offer thanks for all the troubles we don't have.
