He hath many seekers of comfort, but few of tribulation. He findeth many companions of His table, but few of His fasting.

Many are astonished at His miracles, few follow after the shame of His Cross. Many love Jesus so long as no adversities happen to them. Many praise Him and bless Him, so long as they receive any comforts from Him. But if Jesus hide Himself and withdraw a little while, they fall either into complaining or into too great dejection of mind.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/7398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Water trotted is as good as oates. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50040]]></link><description><![CDATA[Water trotted is as good as oates.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/50040</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Theology is Anthropology. [Ger., Die Theologie ist die Anthropologie.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12635]]></link><description><![CDATA[Theology is Anthropology. [Ger., Die Theologie ist die Anthropologie.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/12635</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Your theory is crazy, but it's not crazy enough to be true. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9486]]></link><description><![CDATA[Your theory is crazy, but it's not crazy enough to be true.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Democratic Party is on the move across the country.
