He will only do harm to himself and to the community. Alone you stood before God when He called you; alone you had to answer that call; alone you had to struggle and pray; and alone you will die and give an account to God. You cannot escape yourself; for God has singled you out. If you refuse to be alone, you are rejecting Christ's call to you, and you can have no part in the community of those who are called.... Let him who is not in community beware of being alone. Into the community you were called -- the call was not meant for you alone; in the community of the called you bear your cross, you struggle, you pray. You are not alone even in death, and on the Last Day you will be only one of the great congregation of Jesus Christ. If you scorn the fellowship of the brethren, you reject the call of Jesus Christ.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8578</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[When great assurance accompanies a bad undertaking, such is often mistaken for confiding sincerity by the world at large. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50531]]></link><description><![CDATA[When great assurance accompanies a bad undertaking, such is often mistaken for confiding sincerity by the world at large.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50531</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[ÃƒÂƒÃ‚Â feel very proud because we worked so hard to create it - and proud for France because everything is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30097]]></link><description><![CDATA[ÃƒÂƒÃ‚Â feel very proud because we worked so hard to create it - and proud for France because everything is made here.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/30097</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Widow and the SheepA certain poor widow had one solitary Sheep.

At shearing time, wishing to take his fleece and to avoid expense, she sheared him herself, but used the shears so unskillfully that with the fleece she sheared the flesh. The Sheep, writhing with pain, said, Why do you hurt me so, Mistress? What weight can my blood add to the wool? If you want my flesh, there is the butcher, who will kill me in an instant; but if you want my fleece and wool, there is the shearer, who will shear and not hurt me. The least outlay is not always the greatest gain.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1602</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Whatever man uses without the fear of God, whatever he applies to the mere gratifying of his flesh, cannot fail ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38323]]></link><description><![CDATA[Whatever man uses without the fear of God, whatever he applies to the mere gratifying of his flesh, cannot fail to operate as a poison to the soul, however pleasant and salutary it may appear to be to the body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38323</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The question is, are we happy to suppose that our grandchildren may never be able to see an elephant except ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33232]]></link><description><![CDATA[The question is, are we happy to suppose that our grandchildren may never be able to see an elephant except in a picture book?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/33232</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The child is father of the man. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6012]]></link><description><![CDATA[The child is father of the man.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6012</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He wanted to let them know he was thinking of them and their families throughout this holiday, and the American ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28974]]></link><description><![CDATA[He wanted to let them know he was thinking of them and their families throughout this holiday, and the American people are behind them.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/28974</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[In a drear-nighted December, Too happy, happy brook,  Thy bubblings ne'er remember   Apollo's summer look;   ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11568]]></link><description><![CDATA[In a drear-nighted December, Too happy, happy brook,  Thy bubblings ne'er remember   Apollo's summer look;    But with a sweet forgetting,     They stay their crystal fretting,      Never, never petting       About the frozen time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/11568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The inevitableness, the idealism, and the blessing of war, as an indispensable and stimulating law of development, must be repeatedly ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61136]]></link><description><![CDATA[The inevitableness, the idealism, and the blessing of war, as an indispensable and stimulating law of development, must be repeatedly emphasized.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61136</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8992]]></link><description><![CDATA[Not just in commerce but in the world of ideas too our age is putting on a veritable clearance sale.
